**[Introduction]{.underline}**[^1]

The American people consistently rank education as a top national
priority; they recognize that education is crucial to helping people
reach their full potential, secure jobs, and become responsible,
productive citizens. The role of education has expanded beyond providing
all children with a challenging academic experience to teaching children
to avoid illegal drugs and alcohol, preparing a skilled workforce for
our growing technology sector, and offering safe and supervised before-
and after-school enrichment programs for children. The U.S. Department
of Education (ED) is continually striving to improve its education
programs.

The responsibilities of the U.S. Department of Education generally fall
into six important areas:

1.  Providing national leadership and partnerships to address critical
    issues in American education

2.  Serving as a national clearinghouse of good ideas

3.  Helping families pay for college

4.  Helping local communities and schools meet the most pressing needs
    of their students

5.  Preparing students for employment in a changing economy

6.  Ensuring nondiscrimination by recipients of federal education funds

ED has established four main goals:

1.  Help all children reach challenging academic standards so they are
    prepared for responsible citizenship, further learning, and
    productive employment

2.  Build a solid foundation for learning for all children

3.  Ensure access to postsecondary education and lifelong learning

4.  Make ED a high-performance organization by focusing on results,
    service quality, and customer satisfaction

Congress appropriated approximately \$42 billion in fiscal year 2000 for
various program activities administered by the Department of Education.
Expenditures for all ED program activities represent about 2 percent of
the federal government's annual \$1.8 trillion budget. ED operates some
175 programs that touch on every area and level of education. More than
half of the Department's budget supports elementary and secondary
education. The Department\'s elementary and secondary programs annually
serve 15,000 school districts and more than 50 million students
attending over 85,000 public schools and more than 26,000 private
schools. Department programs also provide grant, loan, and work-study
assistance to more than 8 million postsecondary students.

President Clinton's fiscal year 2001 budget request seeks to strengthen
the Nation's ability to deal with the Department's growing
responsibilities. Built on previous successes, this budget would allow
ED to continue to help states and communities move academic standards
for all students into the classroom; create partnerships between
schools, families, businesses, and community organizations; and greatly
expand financial support for college students and their families.
Initiatives and programs in fiscal year 2001 would help to renovate,
modernize, and promote safe schools as well as reduce class size for all
schools. Goals include providing professional development to
superintendents, principals, prospective principals, and teachers, as
well as ensuring that there are well-trained professionals for young
children in preschool and daycare. Promoting healthy students,
strengthening support for community services, implementing
standards-based accountability, and further investigating ways to
provide information on student achievement are additional goals. Still
other programs would help to provide access to technical assistance,
encourage entry into the teacher profession, and continue to make
college more affordable.

While ED\'s programs and responsibilities have grown substantially over
the years, the Department itself has not. The Department of Education is
the smallest Federal department. In fact, ED\'s staff of 4,700 is nearly
40 percent below the 7,500 employees who administered Federal education
programs in several different agencies in 1980, when the Department was
created. These staff reductions, along with a wide range of management
improvements, have helped limit administrative costs to about 2 percent
of the Department\'s budget. This means that ED delivers 98 cents on the
dollar in education assistance to States, school districts,
postsecondary institutions, and students.

Over the course of the past few years, the Department of Education has
generally reengineered the way it accomplishes its mission. These
reforms were absolutely essential to meeting the challenges entrusted to
the Department. During the 1990's, Congress enacted scores of new
programs and added billions of dollars to the Department's
appropriations. However, the Department was not provided new staff to
carry out these many additional responsibilities.

To meet the new challenges, and as part of a Government-wide initiative,
the Department eliminated layers of review and supervision. As a result,
ED employees often require the assistance of outside resources. In such
cases, ED employees draft statements of work and effectively administer
contracts -- it is the contractors who perform the commercial
activities. At the same time, it has emphasized multidisciplinary teams
to make policy and solve problems. In short, the Department has
empowered line employees to make decisions and be responsible for
accomplishing the agency's work. The consequence of these management
reforms has been that policy and mission-critical operational
responsibility has been lodged in line employees.

**[Department of Education Contracting Activity]{.underline}**

Several years ago, ED undertook an aggressive effort to contract out its
major activities. Contractors now perform the following activities:

-   Information technology support, computer center, network and
    telecommunications operations;

-   Debt collection;

-   Training and development of ED staff;

-   Student financial assistance services;

-   Grant proposal review;

-   Parking and shuttle bus services;

-   Library services;

-   Copy center services;

-   Warehouse and publication distribution;

-   Call center, hotlines and public inquiry services;

-   Mail room services, and

-   Research and special studies

    With permissible exceptions, the functions above are contracted out
    and would not appear on the Department's FAIR Act inventory list as
    a matter of law.

    **[Information Technology Services]{.underline}**

The Department presently contracts out the overwhelming majority of its
IT requirements. The most recent information available indicates that
the Department spends over \$400,000,000.00 annually on IT services. The
private sector firms providing the Department with IT services through
contracts employ over 2,000-estimated FTE. Contractors provide the
department with systems design, development and programming services,
systems operations and maintenance services, data center operations,
data processing, network operations and maintenance, hardware
installation and maintenance, and telecommunications hardware and system
operation and maintenance.

The Department requires its own in-house, core capability of IT staff
given the number of major information systems needed to run its
programs - the majority of which were developed by, and are operated by,
contractors. There are 14 mission-critical systems and 161
non-mission-critical systems administered by the Department. The major
information systems require special management attention and
knowledgeable, in-house staff because of their importance to the
Department\'s mission, their high development, operating, or maintenance
costs, or their significant role in the administration of Department
programs, finances, property or other resources. Large infrastructure
investments (e.g., major purchases of personal computers or local area
network improvements) also require knowledgeable in-house staff.

In-house IT staff are primarily involved in 1) developing requirements
and specifications, i.e., writing government Statements of Work, for
acquiring computer hardware and services, 2) reviewing vendor\'s
contract proposals for adequacy in terms of vendor ability to perform
desired actions and produce proper results, and 3) serving as
Contracting Officer\'s Technical Representatives in monitoring
vendor/contractor performance. They gather information and review
proposed IT projects, perform risk and return analyses, determine
cost-effectiveness, and evaluate the ability of projects to meet the
Department\'s mission and business needs. Accessible in-house staff is
needed to make funding and other IT decisions. These responsibilities
are the very definition of inherently governmental functions.

**[Differences Between 1999 and 2000 Inventories]{.underline}**

A different process was used to develop the 2000 inventory. The 1999
inventory was prepared centrally by the Contracts and Purchasing
Operations (CPO) office. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) job series
and titles were matched with OMB commercial activity codes. All FTE
performing a function were included on the inventory whenever OPM job
classification data matched an OMB activity code description. All
activities on the inventory were considered core to the Department\'s
mission.

The 2000 inventory was prepared by staff from all of ED\'s principal
offices (PO) and aggregated by CPO. PO staff is in the best position to
prepare the inventory - they know exactly what activities are being
performed. PO staff are also in the best position to make commercial vs.
inherently governmental determinations. In 1999, all FTE in a job series
were included on the inventory if that job series was determined to be
commercial in nature. For 2000, individual\'s activities were logged
separately and hours spent on each activity calculated individually.
Only those FTE performing commercial activities in a non-inherently
governmental manner are included on the inventory.

**[Inventory Challenges and Appeals]{.underline}**

Under Section 3 of the FAIR Act, ED's decision to include or omit a
particular activity from the Commercial Activities Inventory is subject
to administrative challenge and, then, appeal by an \"interested
party.\" Section 3(b) of the FAIR Act defines \"interested party\" as:

a\. A private sector source that (A) is an actual or prospective offeror
for any contract or other form of agreement to perform the activity; and
(B) has a direct economic interest in performing the activity that would
be adversely affected by a determination not to procure the performance
of the activity from a private sector source.

b\. A representative of any business or professional association that
includes within its membership private sector sources referred to in a.
above.

c\. An officer or employee of an organization within an executive agency
that is an actual or prospective offeror to perform the activity.

d\. The head of any labor organization referred to in section 7103(a)
(4) of title 5, United States Code that includes within its membership
officers or employees of an organization referred to in c. above.

An interested party may submit an initial challenge to the inclusion or
exclusion of an activity within 30 working days after publication of
OMB\'s *Federal Register* notice stating that the inventory is
available. The challenge must set forth the activity being challenged
with as much specificity as possible, and the reasons for the interested
party\'s belief that the particular activity should be reclassified as
inherently Governmental (and therefore be deleted from the inventory) or
as commercial (and therefore be added to the inventory) in accordance
with OFPP Policy Letter 92-1 on inherently Governmental functions or as
established by precedent (such as when other agencies have contracted
for the activity or undergone competitions for this or similar
activities).

The Department will review initial challenges. Written notification of
ED's decision will be transmitted to the interested party within 28
working days of receiving the challenge. The notification will include a
discussion of the rationale for the decision and, if the decision is
adverse, an explanation of the party\'s right to file an appeal.

Appeals of an adverse decision to an initial challenge must be
transmitted to ED within 10 working days after receiving the written
notification of the decision. The Department will decide the appeal and
transmit to the interested party a written notification of the decision
together with a discussion of the rationale for the decision within 10
working days of receipt of the appeal. ED will transmit to OMB and the
Congress a copy of any changes to the inventory that result from this
process, make the changes available to the public and publish a notice
of public availability in the *Federal Register*.
