This document outlines the integration of the Activity-Based Costing/Management (ABC/M) initiative for the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) with strategic planning and GPRA reporting. The BIA aims to enhance its cost management and performance analysis through tools like Oros Modeler, developed reporting tools, and a Bureau Reporting Matrix. These tools facilitate linking activities to strategic goals, illustrating performance and cost data efficiently. The chosen Oros Modeler software supports the BIA’s needs while aligning with broader Department of Interior initiatives.

Linking ABC/M to Strategic Plans, GPRA, and DOI Bureau of Indian Affairs February 25,2003
Linking ABC/M to Strategic Plans, GPRA, and DOI • The ABC/M initiative for the BIA was designed with the ability to expand the effort in future years to include linkages to strategic plans, GPRA reporting and the DOI cost management effort • Each of these can be accomplished through a number of various avenues including: • Oros modeler software (utilizing the strategy module) • GT developed reporting tool (utilizing attributes) • Bureau reporting matrix
Example 1: Oros Scorecard Module • The existing Oros Modeler software that BIA currently owns, provides the capability to link Activities (organized by Business Lines) and Cost Objects (the outputs) to a Scorecard view of the organization utilizing the Strategy Module • This scorecard view can contain information related to the strategic plan, GPRA reporting, and even the DOI-level effort • Linkages will show both cost and performance data
Example 1:Sample Oros Scorecard Module with Potential Columns
Example 2: GT Developed Reporting Tool* • Used to report activity costs by business line and/or region using a series of attributes • Reports include: • Attributes by Business Line by Region • Attributes Across Business Lines by Region • Business Line by Region • Can be modified to include attributes linking activities/processes to GPRA, etc. *Developed in Microsoft Access
Example 3: Bureau Matrix • Used to provide a “crosswalk” between DOI Outcome Goals and Strategies and Bureau Outputs and Strategies • Shows which activities in the ABC model support the intersection of which goals and outputs • Provides the capability to identify the cost of supporting each output, strategy, and each outcome • Currently in use at Mineral Management Service
Conclusion/Questions • The BIA effort is currently in line with the efforts taking place at the Department level, with additional functionality • The BIA chosen software (Oros Modeler) is fully capable of handling the Bureau’s needs into the foreseeable future • Oros Modeler is easily integrated (forward and reverse) to accommodate requirements from the Department level • Oros Modeler is the leader in ABC software currently utilized in the Public Sector • The BIA ABC/M effort can fully integrate into other cost management/performance initiatives (GPRA, etc.)
