2.1: Commodity IT

Expand Intra-Agency Shared Services for Commodity IT.

Other Information:

Greater mission effectiveness and cost efficiency can be achieved through the adoption of shared services. This is especially true for large agencies and sub-agencies where there may be dozen(s) of business processes that meet strategic and/or tactical requirements in a number of lines of business / programs, yet due to the current design are "stove-piped" as they serve only one consumer group in that agency. M-11-29 requires CIOs to focus on elimination, duplication, and rationalize their portfolios in these areas. Accordingly, these services are the first building block of the overall strategy to move toward shared IT services.
