Abstract: The second-year anniversary of adoption of The e-Government Act is
evaluated in this report. There are many accomplishments the Office of Budget
and Management (OMB) reports, however, there are some shortcomings. Most of the
provisions of the Act have been successfully implemented, but OMB has failed to
develop a database and website containing information about all federally
funded research and development. Because the US Government is probably the
largest producer and user of information, its attention to achieving a high
level of e-Government, including transactional services, is being closely
observed by many countries.
