NGDA Management Plan Approved

The FGDC Steering Committee has approved the final version of the National Geospatial Data Asset Management Plan (formerly known as the A-16 Portfolio Management Implementation Plan).  This has truly been a collaborative effort involving a host of FGDC member agencies and partner organizations. 

The plan outlines the actions needed for our oversight responsibility to institute a portfolio management process to support the implementation of the OMB Circular A-16 Supplemental Guidance and to address the portfolio management goals in the recently developed 2014-2016 NSDI Strategic Plan.  The plan is also designed to address key drivers including Administration priorities and FGDC strategic initiatives.
