Applicable Documents:

OMB Circular A-11 and A-130

Scope: Information Technology (as defined in the Clinger-Cohen Act) is subject to certain scrutiny and reporting requirements as set forth in Legislative actions, and Executive and Agency mandates and directives. The passing of the Federal Information Technology Reform Act (FITARA) of 2014 expanded on Clinger Cohen and the requirements for agencies to assess and report their information technology (IT) investment portfolios. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-130 establishes the policies that govern Federal IT in order to implement statutory IT requirements, and includes IT Investment management, planning, and control (i.e., CPIC). The annual OMB Circular A-11 establishes the guidelines and requirements for IT investment reporting to the Executive Branch and Congress as part of the annual Federal budget cycle.

The Contractor shall prepare a report of all IT expenditures consistent with the Agency’s guidelines and policies regarding the management and reporting of IT resources, to include the annual CPIC data in support of the agency’s budget formulation process. Any additional reporting requirements associated with CPIC reporting and data collection process will be covered by this DRD.

In conformance with IT management and reporting processes, to include CPIC, Contractors shall participate in data collection and reporting efforts. Contractors shall furnish the data needed for the Agency to comply with statutory and OMB requirements including but not limited to those documented in OMB Circular A-11. Accurate and complete data submissions are to be made in a manner consistent with the reporting structure, and within the timeframes established for the Center.

The contractor may reach out to the CIM for questions regarding CPIC reporting.

Contents: All Contractors shall submit their Fiscal Year spending plans for review and approval to the cognizant Center Chief Information Officer (CIO), or designee, prior to the beginning of the Fiscal Year (October). Changes to spending plans during the Fiscal Year shall be approved by the CIO, or designee, before implementation. Formats and reporting processes and procedures will be provided annually based upon Center and Agency requirements.

Examples of documentation, formats, processes, procedures, and structures will be provided annually in support of the data call. The attached Excel Spreadsheet, entitled “CPIC DRD Template for IT Portfolio PPM Data Collection,” is a sample template for Year 1 of the Contract. This is a dynamic process, and formats, processes, procedures, and structures are subject to change. The reporting requirement is defined by OMB annually. Each year, OMB may request varying levels of reporting across varying levels of technologies and labor, depending on their focus.

Remarks: None

Maintenance: Updated with Annual Submission
