The Grace Commission in which 161 corporate, academic, and labor leaders participated was set up to survey the Federal Government's operations from a private sector viewpoint and to identify opportunities for cost savings and improved management efficiencies. With private sector management tenets in mind, PPSS reports contain 2,478 specific recommendations, covering 784 issues, whose implementation could result in net savings of $424.4 billion over three years and prevent the accumulation of $10.5 trillion of additional deficits over the 17 years to year 2000. The Report provides a timely look at Federal Government spending and its relationship to budget deficits.
