The IEA Program has led the development and implementation of modernization blueprints that are aimed at improving processes and information sharing; reducing redundant IT systems; and serving as a key enabler of business transformation. Interior’s mission performance is being improved with effective alignment of the underlying IT investment portfolio. This IT Strategic Plan supports the Department’s IT Program’s continued adherence to the DOI Transition Strategy for closing the gap between Interior’s current or “as-is” architecture and its conceptual target architecture. In support of the PMA, the IEA has developed a detailed Interior Enterprise Transition Plan (ETP) to highlight DOI’s existing and planned projects that are affecting changes; integration with the Federal E-Government initiatives; technology infrastructure modernization initiatives; and recurring cycles that influence and support the IEA. The goal of Enterprise Architecture (EA) is to improve DOI’s mission performance and realize its strategic goals and objectives. EA seeks to achieve this goal by: Providing strategic business and architecture consulting services to program areas, improving the connection between stakeholders and investments, streamlining the processes and business rules in the program areas, minimizing system redundancies, improving data integration and data sharing, increasing the re-use of IT assets; and reducing the Total Cost of Ownership of Interior’s IT Portfolio. Interior’s integrated approach to EA reduces redundancies that result from separate Department and bureau-level approaches. To ensure the result is comprehensive, bureaus will concentrate their architecture efforts on strategically significant and bureau-unique business areas outside the common business areas being defined at the Departmental level. The end outcome for this process is to identify opportunities for integration, to eliminate or reduce redundancies, and to more effectively apply resources. Interior has established the Methodology for Business Transformation (MBT) that is used to develop “Modernization Blueprints”. The methodology and resulting blueprints provide for the analysis of business processes and information systems that support a program or mission area. The blueprint identifies opportunities for improving mission performance and internal efficiencies and allows for the development of action plans for implementing these opportunities for improvement. A fundamental component supporting EA activities at DOI is the Department Enterprise Architecture Repository (DEAR). This system is used to maintain the official inventory of all systems across the Department and Bureaus in support of modernization efforts. This system also supports the DOI architects in their analysis of program areas as they leverage the MBT to work with program resources in the development of the Modernization Blueprints.OMB’s Enterprise Architecture (EA) Maturity Framework v2.0 is used to measure Interior’s progress in this strategic goal.Each Agency receives an average score in three capability areas: EA Completion, Use, and Results. The average is calculated by summing the score for all criterion within that capability area and then dividing by the number or criteria. Scores are rounded up to the nearest tenth. The results of the annual assessment process will be reflected in the Status score for E-Government within the President’s Management Agenda. Agencies receive an overall score of Green for EA if the capability area score is equal to or greater than 3 in both the “Completion” and “Use” capability areas OR a score equal to 3 or greater in the “Results” capability area._ddc2a45a-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a1EA MaturityAchieve a minimum score of 4.0 out of 5.0 on the OMB EA Maturity Framework v2.0 (FY07)_ddc2a568-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a2Business IntelligenceImplement a Business Intelligence service that delivers integrated information to multiple planning and decision making audiences.

(FY08 – FY12)_ddc2b5f8-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a2IT SecurityProtect the availability, confidentiality and integrity of DOI’s IT resources.Interior is committed to continuing improvements in its IT security program, and to complying with OMB Circular A-130, Appendix III security requirements. Interior has numerous systems to support over 50 business lines. This complexity makes security and IT management a very challenging undertaking, and underscores the need for further standardization. The goal of Information Security is to protect the availability, confidentiality and integrity of DOI information technology resources. This goal is met primarily by meeting the requirements specified in OMB Circular A-130, the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) and various U.S. Commerce Department’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) publications. The Interior IT Security Program uses a risk-based, cost-effective approach to secure information and systems, identify and resolve current IT security weaknesses and risks, and protect against future vulnerabilities and threats.NIST has defined 17 areas that must be addressed as part of a world-class Information Security program. These 17 elements must be addressed in order to achieve the long term strategic goal for this focus area.1. Risk Management 2. Review of Security Controls 3. Life Cycle 4. Authorize Processing (Certification & Accreditation) 5. System Security Plan 6. Personnel Security 7. Physical and Environmental Protection 8. Production, Input/Output Controls 9. Contingency Planning 10. Hardware and System Software Maintenance 11. Data Integrity 12. Documentation 13. Security Awareness, Training, and Education 14. Incident Response Capability 15. Identification and Authentication 16. 1Logical Access Controls 17. Audit TrailsThe Certification & Accreditation (C & A) process is a key component of the security program as it consolidates many of the 17 program elements on a system by system basis. Interior has defined a process for completing C & A activities that is used across the Department and Bureaus.The Federal IT Security Assessment Framework developed by NIST is used to measure Interior’s progress in this strategic focus area._ddc2b76a-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a1Policy, Procedure, and GuidanceMature the existing policy, procedure and guidance capability to ensure the foundation of the DOI cyber security program (FY07)_ddc2b8fa-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a2Risk ManagementMature the existing risk management and compliance programs with regular vulnerability scanning and penetration testing as the key component of the Departments continuous monitoring efforts (FY07)_ddc2ba94-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a3Incident ResponseEstablish a mature centralized Incident Response Capability to ensure the proactive and reactive protection of DOI IT infrastructure and data (FY07)_ddc2bc38-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a4C&AComplete C&A for at least 100% of the systems in the DOI inventory (FY07)_ddc2bdf0-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a5IT Security Awareness TrainingComplete IT Security Awareness training for at least 95% of DOI employees and contractors (FY07)_ddc2bfa8-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a6Security Controls and ProceduresEnhance security controls and procedures for the protection of privacy data and other sensitive data for mobile computing devices, internal databases and applications, and remote access solutions (FY07)_ddc2c160-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a7IT Security TrainingEstablish a mature IT security awareness, training and education program (FY07)_ddc2c354-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a8IT Security AssessmentAchieve a score of at least 3.5 out of 5.0 on the Federal IT Security Assessment Framework (FY07)_ddc2c520-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a9Policy, Procedure, and GuidanceMeasure and improve the existing policy, procedure and guidance capability to ensure the foundation of the DOI cyber security program (FY08 – FY12)_ddc2c6ec-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a10Risk ManagementMeasure and improve the existing risk management and compliance programs with regular vulnerability scanning and penetration testing as the key component of the Departments continuous monitoring efforts (FY08 – FY12)_ddc2c8f4-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a11Incident ResponseMeasure and improve centralized Incident Response Capability to ensure the proactive and reactive protection of DOI IT infrastructure and data (FY08 – FY12)_ddc2cade-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a12Security Controls and ProceduresMeasure and improve security controls and procedures for the protection of privacy data and other sensitive data for mobile computing devices, internal databases and applications, and remote access solutions (FY08 – FY12)_ddc2ccc8-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a13C&AMeasure and maintain C&A for at least 100% of the systems in the DOI inventory (FY08 – FY12)_ddc2cee4-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a14Security TrainingMeasure and improve the Security Awareness, Training and Education Program to ensure at least 95% of DOI employees and contractors have an increase level of awareness and experience commensurate to their areas of responsibility (FY08 – FY12)_ddc2d0e2-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a15Security AssessmentAchieve a score of at least 4.5 out of 5.0 on the Federal IT Security Assessment Framework. (FY08 – FY12)_ddc2d2e0-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a3E-GovernmentImprove the efficiency and effectiveness of DOI business processes.Interior’s serves as the Managing Partner for two of OMB’s original PMA E-Government Initiatives:Geospatial One-Stop: Provides government agencies with a single access point to map-related data and promotes coordination of geospatial data collection and maintenance among all levels of government.Recreation One-Stop: Provides citizens a user-friendly single access point to information about recreational opportunities at thousands of federal, state, and local parks, museums, and historical landmarks nationwide.Those accomplishments are just a prologue; however, for the Department’s plans for the years ahead. Interior will leverage the success of Geospatial One-Stop through a Geospatial Line of Business, which address the various methods to provide mapping services and data across all levels of government. Interior’s leadership will serve the Nation’s interests, and meet the core missions of Federal agencies and their state and local partners, through the effective and efficient application of geospatial data and services. Interior will continue to streamline internal processes by using technology to improve our human resources management and financial services, and extend these improvements to other agencies through the Human Resources and the Financial Management Lines of Business.The goal of E-Government is to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of DOI business processes. E-Government technology will enable us to do our jobs better. We have mapped Departmental mission needs as detailed in this Strategic Plan, and continue to look for opportunities for E-Government investment. Building on constituent input, we prioritize those opportunities based on Department-wide portfolio analysis. We will promote E-Government and OMB Lines of Business (LoB) projects in EA, Information Systems Security (DHS), Budget Formulation and Execution (TBD), and IT infrastructure (GSA); redirect projects already underway to more effectively support mission accomplishment; and identify existing systems that should be re-tooled to support E-Government.This goal is directly supported by several of the other goals, such as EA, IT Security and Enterprise Operations. The Department of Interior E-Government Strategic Plan (FY 2004 - FY 2008) provides a comprehensive description of the high-level vision, mission and guiding principles for E-Government at Interior, as previously illustrated. E-Government initiatives cut across multiple Federal agencies and address opportunities to provide services in the areas of Government to Citizen, Government to Business, Government to Government and Internal Effectiveness. Current initiatives in each of these areas are summarized in the diagram above. This document is primarily focused on the component of the IT Strategic Plan related to OCIO program areas and supports Departmental IT Program compliance with IEA Strategy and Interior’s Enterprise Transition Plan for integrating business needs and IT. Released by the OMB in August 2001, the President’s Management Agenda (PMA) identified five mutually reinforcing initiatives, each addressing a key element in management performance with a significant opportunity for improvement: Strategic Management of Human Capital; Competitive Sourcing; Improved Financial Performance; Expanded Electronic Government, and Budget and Performance Integration. Expanded Electronic Government: This PMA initiative launched to make better use of Federal Government information technology (IT) investments, improve the accessibility of information and services, and reduce response time to citizens. The vision for e-Government involves citizens and businesses easily obtaining services and interacting with the Federal Government while improving overall efficiency and effectiveness. Interior’s IT Strategic goals are aligned with PMA E-Government performance measures. This aggressive strategy focuses on managing areas of weakness across the government, and making improvements where the most progress can be achieved. Each Federal agency’s PMA performance is scored quarterly by OMB with its Stoplight Scoring System. The PMA Scorecard employs a simple grading system common today in well-run businesses: Green for success, Yellow for mixed results, and Red for unsatisfactory. One of the factors included in the scorecard is the Enterprise Architecture maturity score discussed in Focus Area 1._ddc2d4fc-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a1Recreation and Geospatial One-Stop ManagerAct as the Managing Partner for two of the PMA E-Government initiatives: Recreation One-Stop.

The overall process for Capital Planning is defined in the Department of the Interior Capital Planning and Investment Control Guide. The process defined in this guide is a circular flow through five sequential phases. These phases are represented in the diagram below.Activities supporting the Capital Planning Focus Area are closely tied to activities in the Enterprise Architecture Focus Area. Capital Planning defines a process for reviewing, approving and monitoring investments. Enterprise Architecture ensures that the investments being made are not redundant and that they support mission goals.At quarterly points during the ongoing CPIC portfolio management process, the Departmental IRB reviews the status of ongoing projects to make portfolio management decisions. This year, the IRB adopted Management Objectives and Business Priorities criteria identified below to make “smarter” recommendations on the viability and prioritization of proposed initiatives; prevent duplicate investments; and leverage shared solutions, where appropriate. Management Objectives - Criteria to evaluate investments in the CPIC Process: Implement legal and judicial mandates. Respond to internal and executive mandates. Obtain positive return on investments. Improve performance (showing links to DOI Strategic Plan and bureau performance goals, avoiding duplication, managing risk, improving efficiency, achieving specific objectives) .Business Priorities - The second tier of management guidance for portfolio decisions: Enterprise projects. Projects on schedule, within costs, meeting expectations (evaluated through control reviews). Projects that are consistent with blueprints. Management objectives and business priorities provide general guidance. E-Gov team managers weigh these factors in addition to other considerations in making investment recommendations.Progress in the Capital Planning focus area is tracked using the GAO IT Investment Management (ITIM) Framework._ddc2e550-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a1GAO ITIM Level 2Achieve Level 2 of the GAO ITIM Maturity Model and implement 70 percent of the key practices required for Level 3 (FY07)_ddc2e7ee-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a2IT Investment Control95% of IT investments will be within 10% of the goals established in the cost, schedule, and performance baseline (FY07)_ddc2ea82-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a3CPIC Process100% of IT investments will be reviewed and approved through the CPIC process (FY07)_ddc2ed20-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a4GAO ITIM Level 3Achieve Level 3 of the GAO ITIM Maturity Model (FY08)_ddc2f00e-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a5GAO ITIM Level 4Achieve Level 4 of the GAO ITIM Maturity Model (FY10)_ddc2f2d4-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a6GAO ITIM Level 5Achieve Level 5 of the GAO ITIM Maturity Model (FY12)_ddc2f590-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a7CPIC Synchronization with EA and SecuritySynchronize Capital Planning activities with those of Enterprise Architecture and Information Security (FY08 – FY12)_ddc2f842-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a5IT InfrastructureProvide world-class enterprise solutions—improving the quality, accessibility, and sharing information between DOI and its customersAn essential component for attaining the desired level of maturity is standardizing operational capabilities, such as through the Enterprise Services Network (ESN), and wireless communications. The ESN provides a modern infrastructure to integrate network capabilities within the Department. The ESN serves as a platform for continued standardization, and provides the capability to measure overall service levels and maturity improvement. Interior will move toward infrastructure lifecycle planning, and factoring replacement costs into annual budgets as a continuing cost of doing business. In order to reduce liabilities and improve services related to wireless communication, Interior will focus on improving land mobile radio interoperability, and partnering with States to expand coverage for emergency first responders and other Federal users. Interior will work to combine IT and Facilities Management capital planning processes to leverage economies of scale in the rehabilitation of government radio sites as well as make use of state-wide radio trunk systems.The goal of this focus area is to provide world-class enterprise operations—improving the quality, accessibility, and sharing of data between DOI and its customers. The architecture and management of the current DOI network is fragmented and decentralized. The overall goal of this focus area is to consolidate operations for a variety of technology infrastructure components in order to provide improved levels of service and security with an overall reduction in operational costs.Work on the following initiatives was performed in 2006 that serves as cornerstones to further consolidation efforts: Enterprise Services Network (ESN): to create a single wide-area network (WAN) supporting the Department and all Bureaus. Enterprise Active Directory (EAD): to provide a single authoritative user directory for controlling access to IT systems and servicesThe following initiatives have been identified as candidates for consolidation into DOI-wide Enterprise Operations: Enterprise Messaging Services (EMS): to provide electronic mail and messaging services. Service Desk Consolidation: to consolidate multiple help desk operations across the Department and Bureaus into an enterprise service desk operation. Enterprise IT asset management. Desktop and Local Area Networks: to consolidate and standardize management of enterprises services down to the desktop. Web Server Consolidation: to consolidate web server infrastructure across the Department and Bureaus. Enterprise Radio Services: to provide a world-class level of service for all radio users (especially law enforcement and fire) both internally and externally to DOI. Wireless Communications: to provide for consolidated delivery of wireless services to the Department and Bureaus.Operations Performance Analysis will be applied to activities in this area. The analysis will identify opportunities for improvement. This approach will allow DOI to provide continuous improvement in operations performance.The Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) is used to track progress in this strategic area and is intended to assist organizations to provide quality IT service in the face of budgetary constraints, skill shortages, system complexity, rapid change, current and future user requirements and growing User expectations_ddc2fb08-a31d-11df-b596-38237a64ea2a1ESNTransition ESN to steady state operations and provide greater than 90% proactive problem reporting.
