Agency Tactical Plans:Common Trouble Spots
Information collections ‘Information collections’ in the tactical plans refer to
collections of information from the public regulated by the Paperwork Reduction Act
Each PRA-regulated information collection has an 8 digit control number issued by OMB; control numbers for USDA begin with 05. Example OMB Control Number: 0505-1234
PRA information collections are important because they are also the set of transactions that GPEA requires be electronically enabled by 2003.
Summary tables for agency and Departmental initiatives In some plans, initiatives were included under multiple goals
in the summary tables; instead, each initiative should only appear once in the summary table, under the goal with which it is most directly aligned
10
U.S. Department of Agriculture eGovernment Program
Financial information (estimated budget/spending data in Section V, all of Section VI) Part A of section VI requires no additional calculations; it is simply a
summary of the budget information presented in section V. Part B (current IT spending by stakeholder group) is understandably
difficult; if you cannot reasonably acquire this information, make estimates based on your agency’s current or recent IT budget/spending information.
Several agencies have raised the question of including staff time as part of budget data; for the purposes of the plans, staff time should not be included (although you can include staff time in a footnote).
• eGovernment Baseline The eGovernment baseline is an important part of the tactical plan,
as it includes all existing agency eGovernment applications Completed baselines were only received from two agencies,
however You should have received a copy of your agency’s baseline along
with your Tactical Plan briefing packet, back in February; if you need another copy, please contact us ASAP at [email protected] or 202.720.6144

Agency Tactical Plans:Common Agency-Specific Initiatives
In addition to linkages with the Department’s eGovernment Strategic Plan, several agencies had similar agency-specific initiatives
Agencies may wish to take advantage of these similarities to integrate their initiatives, or to simply collaborate and share knowledge.
Common initiatives include:
Extranets Commodity data/market news Telecommunications/infrastructure
Including wireless applications
