CIO Structure
Last Friday Gov. Leavitt spoke to various IT managers from throughout the executive branch. He outlined a new CIO structure, and gave us some direction on which enterprise IT projects he is interested in pursuing. I thought it was a good move, and I am excited to be a part of this new IT vision. Here is the gist of it, at least what I understood:
Office of CIO Structure Phil will have two deputy CIOs that report to him. One will be responsible for maintaining an enterprise focus on IT infrastructure (DCIO for IT) and the other will be responsible for egovernment and will head the product management council (DCIO for eGovernment). Each of the large agencies will also have an Assistant CIO, the small agencies will have CIO representation through the DCIO for IT
Enterprise Projects Enterprise projects will be approved by the cabinet council through a three-stage process: Vision, Scope and Charter. Once a project is approved, an Enterprise Executive will be appointed to head the project and the Enterprise Project Steering Committee.
In addition to these items, the gov also announce the dispandment of UECC, and emphasized the need for good communication and innovation. He also listed 10 projects that he wants a report on at semptember's cabinet meeting, of which I am directly invovled in 3.
