ITAA Recommends Counter-Terrorism Actions

by Dave Murphy
ISSN 1535-3613

Dave Murphy, DGL President & ITrain founder The Information Technology Association of America (ITAA) has issued a set of recommendations for government agencies involved in counter-terrorism operations. The report calls for integrated information technology, and has been sent to Governor Tom Ridge, Director of Homeland Security.

ITAA members met with law enforcement and intelligence agencies to develop the recommendations as early as last November.

The nine recommendations are:

  1. Leapfrog to federal enterprise planning in order to develop the interagency/extra-agency business needs to counter terrorist based threats.
  2. Establish a managing partner, an authority to manage the enterprise.
  3. Define the federal enterprise.
  4. Develop and record the business objectives that will accrue to the federal enterprise.
  5. Identify data required to support these processes.
  6. Develop and maintain a quick inventory of existing interagency projects or projects that could be leveraged by agencies while the management and administrative structures for the federal enterprise are being put in place.
  7. Work with the Administration to examine federal budget mechanisms that will support these federal enterprise projects.
  8. Establish and maintain common project management structures and reporting so that these interagency IT issues will become standardized for these federal enterprise projects along with commonly understood measures, roles and responsibilities, schedules and costs.
  9. Identify a legal review and policy group to support federal enterprise projects.

Dave's Opinion

ITAA is on the right track with their suggestions. Good work.
