A-16 Supplemental Guidance • Components: • Elements of the National Geospatial Data Asset Portfolio • Portfolio Management of National Geospatial Data Assets • Roles and Responsibilities Pursuant to OMB Circular A–16 • National Geospatial Data Asset Portfolio Investment Strategy • NGAC provided extensive comments on the Draft and Final Draft versions of the Supplemental Guidance
GAO Recommendation • GAO Report (GAO-13-94):”OMB and Agencies Need to Make Coordination a Priority to Reduce Duplication” (Nov. 2012) • Recommendation: “To better facilitate the coordination of—and accountability for—the estimated billions of dollars in federal geospatial investments, and to reduce duplication, we recommend that the Secretary of the Interior, as the FGDC Chair, direct the FGDC Steering Committee to take the following three actions: 1. Establish a time frame for completing a plan to facilitate the implementation of OMB’s portfolio management guidance, and develop and implement the plan within the established time frame. The plan, at a minimum, should include goals and performance measures, and the FGDC should report annually to OMB on the progress made on efforts to improve coordination and reduce duplication among themes.”
FGDC Response • 1-15-13 Memorandum from Anne Castle to FGDC Steering Committee/Coordination Group • Describes FGDC response; Directs FGDC Steering Committee to take specific actions to implement recommendations • 6-7-13 Memorandum to agencies sent through the President’s Management Council • Provides direction and outlines roles/responsibilities for theme lead agencies and other FGDC agencies • Executive Sponsors: Ivan DeLoatch (FGDC), Adrian Gardner (DHS/FEMA) • Interagency Team: Developing draft implementation plan
NGAC Guidance • March 2013 FGDC Guidance to NGAC: OMB Circular A-16 Supplemental Guidance/Portfolio Management Implementation Plan The NGAC has provided ongoing advice and recommendations related to the development and implementation of the OMB Circular A-16 Supplemental Guidance. The recent GAO report, “OMB and Agencies Need to Make Coordination a Priority to Reduce Duplication” (GAO-13-94), recommended that the FGDC “establish a time frame for completing a plan to facilitate the implementation of OMB’s portfolio management guidance, and develop and implement the plan within the established time frame.” The FGDC requests continuing input from the NGAC on this process, including the following: • Provide feedback and comment on the A-16/portfolio management plan as it is developed.
