 OMB’s Management Offices include:

The Office of Federal Financial Management (OFFM) develops government-wide policies and provides strategic direction to improve financial management, reporting, and systems; to reduce improper payments; to improve grants management; and to “right-size” Federal real property.  OFFM also coordinates the activities of agency Chief Financial Officers and Senior Real Property Officers.

The Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP) is responsible for setting government-wide acquisition priorities and policies, which shape the full range of federal agency procurement practices.  In addition to its formal role leading the regulation-writing process for the entire federal government, OFPP works with agencies to strengthen the acquisition workforce, and initiates and fosters cost-saving and risk-reduction practices across the government.  OFPP also works to ensure that agencies rely on and manage contractors in fiscally responsible ways.

The Office of E-Government and Information Technology (E-Gov), headed by the Federal Government’s Chief Information Officer, develops and provides direction in the use of Internet-based technologies to make it easier for citizens and businesses to interact with the Federal Government, save taxpayer dollars, and streamline citizen participation. 

The Office of Performance and Personnel Management (OPPM) leads the effort to drive mission-focused performance gains across the Federal government.  OPPM coordinates the Administration’s goal-setting and performance review process for agencies’ high priority performance goals and guides agency strategic and annual planning, performance reviews and performance reporting.  OPPM also functions as the Resource Management Office for the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) and guides Federal personnel policy, working closely with OPM to implement effective personnel policies and practices.
