1.3: Implementation

Work together to define and to develop Open Government solutions.

Other Information:

Implementation of the Plan - Achieving a more Open Government will require the various professional disciplines within the Government—such as policy, legal, procurement, finance, and technology operations— to work together to define and to develop Open Government solutions. When the Open Government Initiative was announced, NASA acted swiftly. In March 2009 we established the Data.gov Working Group, comprised of many data experts throughout NASA. Through the efforts of recovery.gov and USAspending.gov many financial and procurement professionals gathered to meet their presidential directives. With the issuance of the Open Government Directive NASA identified two accountable officials: the NASA CFO as the senior accountable official (SAO) for financial data quality and the CIO as the accountable official for Open Government at NASA. A short-term Open Government Working Group was established at NASA Headquarters. Upon the release of version 1.0 of the NASA Open Government Plan, this working group will evolve into the Standing Open Government Working Group.
