Management and Oversight of Federal Information Technology

The Federal Information Technology Acquisition Reform Act (FITARA), passed by Congress in December 2014, is a historic law that represents the first major overhaul of Federal information Technology (IT) in almost 20 years. Since FITARA’s passing, OMB published guidance to agencies to ensure that this law is applied consistently governmentwide in a way that is both workable and effective. This guidance is now available as OMB Memorandum M-15-14: Management and Oversight of Federal Information Technology.

OMB used https://management.cio.gov, to collect public feedback on proposed guidance in April 2015. Today this site is still available as a place to continue the discussion of FITARA implementation although the implementation guidance has been finalized. The other pages on management.cio.gov are open for contribution at any time, and are intended to be resources for agencies implementing the FITARA policy.

This repo houses the code for updated guidance and resources.
