MEMORANDUM FOR THE HEADS OF SELECTED DEPA2MENTS AND AGENCIES
FROM: JOSEPH R. WRIGHT, JR.
DEPUTY DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: Review of Executiveanch Printing Requirements
On April 20, 1981, the President issued a directive to eliminate wasteful
spending on government periodicals and pamphlets. Pursuant to that
directive, the Executive branch agencies have identified 2,000 publications,
which will be discontinued, and 2,300 publications, for which the frequency
of publication, the exact number of issues, the size of the publication,
etc., will be reduced.
It is evident that the above actions have reduced the need for printing
capacity within the Federal Government. We would prefer to avoid mandating
an across. the board reduction in printing operations. Accordingly, we have
prepared the attached questionnaire to obtain a better understanding of
printing, bindinq, and duplicating operations in the government. The
questionnaire has been designed with the assistance of technical personnel
provided to OMB by Public Printer Danford L. Sawyer, Jr., and GPO will be
helpinq us analyze the responses.
Would you please have the management of each printing or duplicating
facility under your jurisdiction complete the attached survey forms for the
time periods specified, providing all supplemental documents as required?
In completing the questionnaire, the requirement for printing capacity
should be tightly estimated based on program levels identified in the 1984
budget. Also, the projection of printing needs should emphasize the use of
procurement of commercial printing wherever possible.
The completed form should be summarized into an agency report and submitted
through your agency budget office to the Office of Management and Budget,
attention: Management Improvement and Evaluation Division, 10208 New
Executive Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20503, by March 31, 1983.
Questions concerning completion of the questionnaire may be directed to Bill
McQuaid, OMB, [phone], or to Walter Feierstein, Superintendant,
Regional Printing Procurement Division, Government Printing Office,
Washington, D.C. 20401, [phone].
Thank you for your continuing cooperation with the publications review
project, and this follow-up review of printing and duplicating capacity.
