NRCS eGovernment (eGOV)

NRCS eGOV Vision

The NRCS eGovernment mission establishes the internet information technology as a primary means for organizational transformation. Transforming and enhancing delivery of the agency's core programs, services, and information necessitates significant changes in the current nature and execution of program delivery.

The President's Management Agenda makes "Expanding Electronic Government" one of the five major initiatives for reforming government; it aims to enable the public to easily transact with and receive quality service from the Federal government, regardless of channel. It also stresses citizen centered government-presenting government services based on citizens' needs instead of agencies' organizational structure. To ensure success of the President's Management Agenda, OMB and the President's Management Council created a Quicksilver Task Force to develop government-wide eGovernment initiatives.

Legislation and directives such as GPEA, E-File, eSIGN, and the President’s Management Agenda offer guidance for eGovernment and the impetus for agencies to evolve in order to meet rising stakeholder expectations.
