Over the years, the Congress has promulgated laws and the Office of Management and Budget and GAO have issued policies and guidance, respectively, on (1) information technology (IT) strategic planning/performance measurement (which defines what an organization seeks to accomplish, identifies the strategies it will use to achieve desired results, and then determines how well it is succeeding in reaching resultsoriented goals and achieving objectives) and (2) investment management (which involves selecting, controlling, and evaluating investments). To obtain an understanding of the government's implementation of these key IT management policies, congressional requesters asked GAO to determine the extent to which 26 major agencies have in place practices associated with key legislative and other requirements for (1) IT strategic planning/ performance measurement and (2) IT investment management. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-04-49/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-04-49.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-04-49/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-04-49.pdf GAO-04-49 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-04-49 Other Written Product GAO-04-49; Information Technology Management: Governmentwide Strategic Planning, Performance Measurement, and Investment Management Can Be Further Improved; Agency evaluation Agency missions Federal agencies General management reviews Information technology Performance measures Strategic planning Title 31 Section 9016 Title 31 Section 901 Title 31 Chapter 11 31 U.S.C. 9016 31 U.S.C. 901 31 U.S.C.
