Enterprise Vision
Be the very best in government Enabling the mission to be conducted anywhere, by
anyone, at any time Support unique work preferences Enable virtual collaboration across multiple time zones
and in multiple languages Eliminate technological barriers Make security transparent Effectively manage Enterprise data/information Be sustainably green Deliver maximum value

Strategic -determine business needs and evaluate technologies, innovations, and optimizations to create a strategic future-state vision
Planning – evaluate future-state vision against the current-state to rationalize a transition plan that will transform the current-state over time
Implementation - use transition projects from the Transition Plan to transform to the future-state vision
Operations - assume responsibility for maintaining changes to the current-state environment implemented by the transition projects and operate and improve them over their useful lifetime
Continuous Improvement- Evaluate all process groups looking for opportunities to improve value and to make sure everything remains aligned with business goals
