Chief Information Officers Council - Federal Mobility Strategy

Federal Mobility Strategy

On January 11, 2012, the U.S. CIO Steven VanRoekel announced the development of a Mobility Strategy for the Federal government. The purpose of the Federal Mobility Strategy is to accelerate the Federal government’s adoption of mobile technologies and services to:

Improve delivery of government information, products, and services through technologies, including those that are mobile
Engage citizens more fully and meaningfully in their government
Reduce the costs of government operations through technology-enabled efficiencies
Increase Federal workforce productivity by liberating them from ineffective 20th century work practices.

With many disparate mobility efforts occurring across government, the Federal Mobility Strategy seeks to capture and leverage the good work that is already being done, identify and address policy and guidance gaps in the mobility space, reduce duplication of efforts, and increase collaboration and sharing of contracts, code, and lessons learned that can help us make exponential improvements in Federal mobility.
