It is my pleasure to share with you the attached Fiscal Year 2020 Federal Executive Board National Network Annual Report.
Federal Executive Boards (FEBs) serve as catalysts for intergovernmental communication, coordination, and collaboration across the Nation. Each Board builds interagency partnerships, providing a forum for agencies to identify common needs and coordinate actions to meet shared goals. The Boards connect strategic partners across Federal, State, and Local governments, and facilitate collaboration to achieve their objectives. By convening these interagency forums, the 28 FEBs are significant contributors to advancing Governmentwide initiatives outside of Washington, DC, and improving mission delivery and customer service.
Fiscal Year 2020 proved to be a very productive year for the Boards in a number of important areas. FEBs supported agencies’ efforts to continue operations during the pandemic, improved agencies’ emergency preparedness by sponsoring 7 continuity exercises and 34 emergency planning workshops, provided low-cost or no-cost training opportunities to 20,748 Federal employees, and supported the White House’s drive to combat the opioid epidemic. The Boards made significant progress in all three of their strategic goals and, as a result, reduced duplicative efforts and contributed to improved Government operations.
I commend the Boards for their contributions to a more effective and efficient Federal Government to serve the American public.
