GPO Updates Business Unit Names
WASHINGTON —The U.S. Government Publishing Office (GPO) has launched new
names for its various business units. The Agency standardized department names
to distinguish units that service GPO customers such as Congress, the White
House, and Federal agencies from those that service GPO as an Agency.
The full list of new business unit names can be found at

“Updating and standardizing our business unit names will help our internal and
external customers understand the roles of various business units and what
products and services we offer,” said GPO Director Hugh Nathanial Halpern. “We
are excited for this change which represents another step forward in GPO
delivering on its vision of an America Informed.”
GPO business units that are inward-facing now start with the prefix “Agency,”
whereas business units that are outward-facing now start with the prefix
“Government”. A few of the new names for GPO’s important customer-facing
business units are:
- Government Integrated Print Services, previously Plant Operations.
- Government Secure & Intelligent Documents, previously Security & Intelligent Documents.
- Government Publishing & Print Procurement, previously Customer Services
