OPM set the bar pretty high yesterday on sheer volume of jargon in a single press release. In the space of less than 150 words, the release manages to pack in the following terms: "task force," "business and architecture plan," "information technology solutions," "strategic management" (twice), "human capital," "cost-effective," "interoperable," "architectural deliverables," "customer service," and "strategic planning." Impressive. Indecipherable, but impressive.
