The various IT reform initiatives underway in the government (most notably the 25-Point Federal IT Reform plan from Mr. Kundra) coupled with the current fiscal environment is forcing agencies to take full advantage of existing resources while simultaneously exploring new processes and strategies to deliver results. While some view this as a blessing in disguise and others as a near-impossible dilemma, virtually no one is arguing the necessity of these aggressive moved by OMB and the White House to control spending, increase ROI and ultimately transform IT into a strategic business asset. During this panel, executives from various technical, organizational, fiscal and philosophical backgrounds will come together to share their thoughts and experiences relative to this topic and engage in a productive dialogue on this high impact issue.
Learning Objectives
• Discuss strategies on how to leverage existing assets such as processes, technologies, and human capital to help meet 25-Point Reform objectives without adding to your operating expense
• Learn what other agencies/departments have done to successfully manage political & cultural challenges in times of financial stress
• Key Topics in this Session include: 25-point IT Reform, IT Strategy, Business/IT Collaboration, Infrastructure Modernization, Change Management
