OMB publishes online catalog of IT guidelines
Part of the challenge of implementing change is following the guidelines -- and knowing exactly what the changes are. To that end, the White House Office of Management and Budget on Monday announced the release of an online catalog to make guidelines on information technology practices easier to access.
OMB is sending a memorandum to the chief information officers and chief architects of the different federal agencies to explain the launch of the federal transition framework, which consolidates guidance to agencies on policies and best practices on tech solutions.
"By consolidating cross-agency information on IT policy in one convenient location, agencies are able to quickly and more efficiently make decisions related to their overall mission," said Karen Evans, administrator of e-government and technology at OMB.
OMB said the new catalog lets agencies get more complete, consistent information, capitalize on cost savings, and increase the speed of compliance with the directives.
