SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 26, 2019, the Office of Management 
and Budget published OMB memorandum 19-16, Centralized Mission Support 
Capabilities for the Federal Government (available at <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/M-19-16.pdf">https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/M-19-16.pdf</a>). Mission 
support business standards, established and agreed to by agencies, 
using the Federal Integrated Business Framework (FIBF) website at 
<a href="https://ussm.gsa.gov/fibf/">https://ussm.gsa.gov/fibf/</a>, enable the Federal Government to better 
coordinate on the decision-making needed to determine what can be 
adopted and commonly shared. These business standards are an essential 
first step towards agreement on outcomes, data, and cross-functional 
end-to-end processes that will drive economies of scale and leverage 
the Government's buying power. The business standards will be used as 
the foundation for common mission support services shared by Federal 
agencies.
    GSA serves as the TRT business standards lead on the Business 
Standards Council (BSC). The goal of the travel and expense management 
business standards is to drive travel consistency, equity, and 
standardization across the Federal Government.
    GSA is seeking public feedback on these draft business standards 
(i.e., functions and activities, business capabilities, business use 
cases, standard data elements, service measures, and business 
information exchange standards between the travel solution and 
financial management solution(s)), including comments on 
understandability of the standards, suggested changes, and usefulness 
of the draft standards to industry and agencies.
    Guiding questions in standard development include:
    <bullet> Do the draft business standards appropriately document the 
business processes covered?
    <bullet> Are the draft business standards easy to understand?
    <bullet> Will your organization be able to show how your solutions 
and/or services can meet these draft business standards?
    <bullet> What would you change about the draft business standards? 
Is there anything missing?
    Comments will be used in formulation of the final business 
standards.

Krystal J. Brumfield,
Associate Administrator, Office of Government-wide Policy, General 
Services Administration.
