Overseas Presence: Cost Analyses and Performance Measures Are Needed to Demonstrate the Full Potential of Providing Embassy Support Remotely
The President has emphasized the importance of safety,
efficiency, and accountability in U.S. government staffing
overseas by designating the achievement of a rightsized overseas
presence as a part of the President's Management Agenda. One of
the elements of rightsizing involves relocating certain
administrative support functions from overseas posts to the
United States or regional centers overseas, which can provide
cheaper, safer, or more effective support. This report (1)
reviews State's efforts in providing administrative support from
remote locations, (2) identifies the challenges it faces in doing
so, and (3) outlines the potential advantages and concerns
associated with providing support remotely.
