Appendix E. NSDI Strategic Plan – Fiscal Year 2015 Performance Summary

NSDI Plan Implementation Approach

The FGDC community is working collaboratively to implement the NSDI Strategic Plan. The FGDC Executive Committee has the lead responsibility for overseeing and monitoring the implementation of the plan. Designated Federal officials, appointed from the FGDC Executive Committee, are serving as executive champions for each of the objectives in the plan. Implementation plans have been developed for each of the objectives in the strategic plan, describing how the actions will be implemented and measured. This summary describes the FY 2015 implementation status of all of the actions and tasks included in the NSDI Strategic Plan and implementation plans.

The FGDC Executive Committee will continue to monitor the implementation of the goals and objectives in the NSDI Strategic Plan. The Executive Committee and FGDC Secretariat will continue to keep the FGDC community and key partners, such as the National Geospatial Advisory Committee, apprised of the status of implementation. The Executive Committee and Secretariat will also seek feedback on strategies to improve the implementation process and more effectively communicate results.
