The Bureau of Overseas Buildings Operations (OBO) directs the worldwide buildings program for the USG

international posts. In concert with other State Department bureaus, foreign affairs agencies, and

Congress, OBO sets worldwide priorities for the design, construction, acquisition, maintenance, use, and

sale of real properties and the use of sales proceeds.

Each agency with staff overseas contributes annually towards construction of the new facilities based on the

number of positions and the type of space occupied. In 2005, a cost sharing agreement was reached with

the State Department's Overseas Building Office by all USG agencies operating in Rwanda.

Capital Security Cost Sharing is also a major component of the President's Management Agenda initiative

on Rightsizing. Along with securing facilities, this Administration has focused on assuring that overseas staff

are deployed where they are needed to effectively serve USG interests. As agencies assess the real cost of

maintaining staff overseas, they will adjust their overseas staffing levels and new embassies will be built to

suit appropriate staffing levels.
