SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 26, 2019, the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) published OMB memorandum M-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 the 
Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Act agencies, using the Federal 
Integrated Business Framework 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 mission support services 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 the CFO Act 
agencies.
    GSA serves as the real property management business standards lead 
on the Business Standards Council. The goal of the real property 
management business standards is to drive real estate management 
consistency, equity and standardization across the Federal Government.
    This year's updates reflect changes as a result of the business 
information exchange with the Financial Management shared service 
functional area and as a result of the environmental scan of recent 
laws, executive orders and other policy changes. The data elements, 
scenarios, use cases, and functions, activities and business 
capabilities artifacts were all updated.
    GSA is seeking public feedback on the annual update to the business 
standards, including comments on the understandability of the 
standards, suggested changes and usefulness of the draft standards to 
industry and agencies.
    Guiding questions in the standards 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 
or services, or both, 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 the formulation of the final real property 
management business standards.

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