• A memo was sent to agency heads on June 14 providing an overview of the Smart Choice business cases and formally requesting their review of and comments on the business cases. We have only received responses from three agencies—CSREES,
RUS, and AMS. When you brief your agency heads, remind them of the memo and
let them know that their input and feedback is important

Business Case Funding
• The Executive Council has crafted a funding memo (a draft copy of which will be provided) outlining how they recommend USDA should fund the Smart Choice candidates for the remainder of FY 2002 Strategic Initiatives – Impacted agencies fund the next steps to
maximum extent possible Enabling Initiatives - Each mission area, plus Departmental
Administration, contribute $90K to further advance the 6 enabling opportunities
• Additionally, the Executive Council is developing funding strategies for 2003 and beyond:
The enablers may be funded through a pooled funding mechanism (similar to the Working Capital Fund)
Funding for strategic initiatives will initially be requested by the lead agency, possibly with contributions from other involved agencies.
• Each Smart Choice Candidate will have one OMB 300, submitted by the lead agency for each initiative (with the lead agency and additional participating agencies requesting funds from the Department through their agency budget requests).

Farm Bill Memo
• The recently-passed Farm Bill includes several initiatives and new programs that USDA agencies will have to implement, some of which specify automation and all of which should consider eGovernment options.
• The attached draft memo reminds agencies to support the President’s Management Agenda by integrating electronic options for service delivery as program changes are made and new programs are designed. The memo also reminds agencies of the legal requirements of the Clinger-Cohen Act, Paperwork Reduction Act, and other legislation.
