I am using your site to identify performance measures and best practices with regard to compliance and enforcement. The website is a cooperative effort of the National Partnership for Reinventing Government, more than 20 federal agencies, and the seven major organizations representing state and local governments. This one-stop electronic shop for federal information, said Vice President Gore, Ais exactly the kind of reinvention that will lead not only to improved service to our customers, but also to cost savings as federal agencies deliver more and more information electronically. Reengineering Through Information Technology . The Big Seven organizations the Council of State Governments, International City Management Association, National Association of Counties, National Council of State Legislatures, National Governors Association, National League of Cities, and the U.S. Conference of Mayors are the primary customer group for the Gateway.
Topics cover funding, best practices, and laws and regulations .
Subjects include communities and disasters, education, environment and energy, health, housing, and transportation , among others. In addition, links are provided to individual federal agency websites, other one-stop gateway sites, and the homepages of the Big Seven organizations. To help ensure this important balance, the website is managed by committees that meet regularly to review new issues and subject areas and increase outreach to new customer groups. The Innovation Fund, managed by the Government Information Technology Services Board, provided funding to hire a full-time web administrator for one year. The administrator works with the webmaster and heads up a technical committee to oversee site development.
