1.3: Open Government Value Proposition

Leaverage open government to improve mission delivery.

Other Information:

The primary goal in HUD's Open Government Plan is to leverage open government to improve mission delivery. One of the primary values of open government is properly utilizing the vast ingenuity and creativity of the public to generate ideas that can help government more efficiently serve the people. The public, given the right tools, can help the government identify the most pressing areas for transformation and the public can help generate ideas to solve problems. Challenges including homelessness, fair housing, rental assistance, and community planning can be more effectively overcome by tapping into the talent and energies of the public. By introducing open government initiatives that tie directly to HUD's strategic plan, HUD can (1) enhance mission performance and results through the identification of inefficient activities or processes; (2) leverage the public's knowledge and experience to identify new innovations or opportunities; and (3) create a stronger relationship between HUD and the American public.
