Book Description
Information Management (IM) and Information Technology (IT) in the Department of the Navy (DON) provide Navy and Marine Corps warfighters with the tools required to win. This strategic plan describes the Department's vision, mission, governing principles, goals, objectives, and key performance indicators for IM/ IT to support the warfighter. It is driven by, and aligned to, the overarching departmental goals articulated by the Secretary of the Navy. To accomplish our mission, we must provide the foundation for success by providing the right IM/IT tools and infrastructure for the warfighter. We are in the process of right-sizing our architecture. As a Department, we must be smarter about leveraging our limited resources through effective IM/IT governance. To this end, we should manage our application portfolio, requiring a clear strategic or financial return for each IM/IT investment to ensure the warfighter is getting the best return on investment. This includes moving from decentralized to centralized management where it makes sense. The intent of this plan is to assist DON leadership by providing a vision that describes desired departmental outcomes and identifies how they will be achieved and measured. For our commands, this plan will help strengthen their alignment to DON IM/IT goals and help clarify resource priorities. For the IM/IT workforce, this plan provides understanding of the direction of IM/IT in the DON, and how their contributions support this broader vision. This is the fifth DON IM/IT Strategic Plan published by the DON Chief Information Officer (CIO). This is the fifth DON IM/IT Strategic Plan published by the DON Chief Information Officer (CIO).
