Open Government Plan V.2: http://www.usda.gov/open/Blog.nsf/dx/OGP_v2_20120409_FINAL.pdf/$file/OGP_v2_20120409_FINAL.pdf

 Progress: 


 * 2001: USDA redesigned its public website to make content more accessible, user-friendly and relevent to a wider variety of audiences.
 * December 2009: The USDA Data Stewardship Working Group formed in response to the Open Government Directive. To date, USDA has published a total of 183 datasets, including 29 deemed high-value and 2 on the Top Ten Most Downloaded Datasets of all time.
 * USDA was asked by CNN cable network to submit a dataset on the Farmers Market Search. This dataset provided the location of Farmers Markets in the United States. As a result of the publication of this dataset on Data.gov, the public now has the capability to quickly and easily find the location(s) of the nearest Farmers Market. http://www.ams.usda.gov/AMSv1.0/farmersmarkets
 * USDA was explicitly asked by the White House to submit a specific dataset entitled “MyPyramid Food Raw Data” for use in The Apps for Healthy Kids competition. This collaboration activity supported directly First Lady Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move!Campaign to end childhood obesity within a generation. The Apps for Healthy Kids competition was a resounding success, bringing together new partners to provide game and app solutions for informing healthier lifestyles. http://appsforhealthykids.com/
 * As part of the USDA’s Open Gov Flagship Initiative, the Forest Service invited the general public to participate in an innovative way in the development of an upcoming land management planning rule. The Agency created a blog that gave people updates on the planning rule process and allowed them to make comments; over 300 comments weremade as of 1/27/10.  The Agency also held public meetings all over the country.  Over 700 people, who weren’t able to attend the meetings in person, viewed the national public meetings through a webcast on the planning rule website.
 * To counteract decreased funding that faces all of government, USDA is taking a close look at the way it does business. As a result, the Secretary’s Blueprint for Stronger Service aims to build a modern and efficient service organization that is closely timed with technological innovations; and thus, better suited to respond to 21st century agricultural challenges. http://www.usda.gov/wps/portal/usda/usdahome?contentidonly=true&contentid=blueprint_for_stronger_service.html
 * Completed: Identification and publishing of 3 high value data sets on Data.gov
 * Completed: Establish a USDA advocate to serve as contact for Cross-Agency collaboration
 * Completed: MyPyramid for Kids, web-based participation strategies, social technologies/new media
 * Completed: USDA- OCIO/Farm Service Agency visits several USDA Service Centers and producer group forums
 * Completed: Govdelivery.com http://www.govdelivery.com/

 Goals: 


 * Virtual Office Hours (FY 2012): Monthly Virtual Office Hours, a live open question and answer series, will allow USDA leadership and subject matter experts to engage directly with stakeholders through Twitter and, potentially, video. These sessions will facilitate deeper community engagement, understanding and awareness of vital programs, policies and issues that impact individuals nationwide.
 * Local and Regional Foods Outreach and Community Mobilization (FY 2012): The Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food (KYF) Compass was released in February 2012, offering a digital guide that explains our recent work in local and regional food systems. These include resources that create opportunities for new markets and farmer production, facilitate local employment, support disadvantaged farmers, and that boost healthy food access. Additionally, a KYF Mapping Tool will be published that visualizes opportunities realized through 27 programs that support our local and regional food initiatives. http://www.usda.gov/wps/portal/usda/usdahome?navid=KYF_COMPASS, http://www.usda.gov/maps/maps/kyfcompassmap.htm
 * Rural Council Engagement and Strategic Planning (FY 2013): Secretary Vilsack will call upon key stakeholders, communities and our federal partners to provide input and recommendations in developing strategic areas of focus for upcoming Rural Council sessions. A series of virtual chats and other outreach opportunities will be scheduled throughout the year based on the community’s feedback on what are the greatest areas of need.
 * Farm Service Agency's Disaster Assistance Eligibility Tool (FY 2013): The Farm Service Agency is developing a web tool to determine eligibility for various disaster assistance programs. Through a simple questionnaire, applicants can determine which disaster program is appropriate, simplifying the process for understanding programs and helping individuals efficiently obtain assistance.
 * Acreage Crop Reporting Streamlining Initiative (FY 2013): The Acreage Crop Reporting Streamlining Initiative (ACRSI) focuses on establishing a common USDA framework for producer commodity reporting in support of USDA programs.   This effort will enable the producer to report common data once and for USDA agencies to share the data among themselves; thus, eliminating duplicate reporting by producers. The approved data standards will be published on the National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) to support their adoption in private sector agriculture service  systems and technologies as well.  https://www.niem.gov/about/domain/Pages/about-domains.aspx
 * Data-Driven Agriculture Community (FY 2014) Flagship Initiative: In an effort to stimulate innovation and impact progress based on available data or tools, USDA intends to develop a central clearinghouse for Agriculture focused communities. This collection will provide a single-entry point to access published datasets, geospatial products, web and mobile apps.

Open Government Plan V.2: http://open.commerce.gov/open-government-plan

 Progress: 


 * Maintains a comprehensive public records management web site, which provides records control schedules for the Department and its operating units, records management politicesa nd guidance, and links to NARA


 * Commerce and its operating units have identified and submitted to NARA records schedules for almost all electronic records. Commerce routinely approves the transfer of permanent records stored in the federal records center system to NARA, in accordance with instructions in the applicable records control schedules.


 * Commerce has developed and documented detailed procedures for posting all information technology (IT) investments to the federal IT dashboard. The monthly reporting process includes publication by the Department's CIO of a red, yellow, or green status rating for each investment. The Department’s goal is to review all investments with a red or yellow CIO risk rating each month and to review one-third of all green-rated investments during that same period. By September 1, 2009 – well in advance of the “Open Government Directive” – Commerce had published over 104,000 data sets and data tools on Data.gov and, by January 22, 2010, it had released over 60,000 additional data sets and tools. Since that time the Department increased the number of data sets and tools to 303,611 available on Data.gov.


 * To assist Commerce in adhering to the guidance OMB provided in the Open Government Directive and to make existing and new data sets and tools more easily accessible by the public, the Department established an internal community of Data.gov points of contact (POCs) from each of its operating units.


 * Created Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) Interactive Data Tables (iTables) tool to allow customers to perform online analysis of current and historical economic information. BEA has updated its interactive data service to make it easier to access and use BEA statistics.

Progress:


 * To collaborate and engage with the public, the Department uses “Our Border” (http://ourborder.ning.com/), an open online collaborative platform that allows the public to connect and communicate with officials at the Department of Homeland Security who are working together to address border issues
 * The US Citizenship and Immigration Services website (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis)-- available in both English and Spanish - provides information needed to better understand immigration services and policies. Recent enhancements to the website include: real-time alerts on the status of immigration applications via text message and email, meeting announcements and RSVP instructions, background materials, meeting summaries and questions and answers
 * DHS began a series of regional summits beginning in fall 2010 with state and local law enforcement, government, and community leaders to receive firsthand information and feedback on successful community-oriented policing and other crime reduction programs. DHS will gather and share these case studies and best practices with law enforcement partners nationwide using the widely-used Lessons Learned Information Sharing online platform
 * In April 2010, ICE launched the Online Detainee Locator System (ODLS), a public, web-based tool designed to assist family members, attorneys and other interested parties in locating detained aliens in ICE custody. The creation and implementation of the ODLS is a concrete example of the Department's commitment to transparency and detension reform http://www.ice.gov/
 * Created by Executive Order 13526, the “National Declassification Center” (NDC) was developed to streamline declassification processes, facilitate quality assurance measures, and implement standardized training across the executive branch relative to the declassification of records of permanent historical value. http://www.archives.gov/declassification/
 * FOIA Backlog Reduction: The Department set a goal to reduce its backlog request by 15 percent annually. Despite a nearly 30 percent spike in incoming requests in FY 2010, the Department surpassed its goal by reducing the overall FOIA backlog by 40 percent. In light of the continued increase of proactively disclosed documents in the DHS FOIA Electronic Reading Room (http://www.dhs.gov/xfoia/editorial_0424.shtm), the FOIA Office has worked diligently to enhance its FOIA Electronic Reading Room to better accommodate its robust collection of documents. The Electronic Reading Room is linked on the front page of the DHS Privacy Office website, categorized by document type, and includes a “Frequently Requested” document section
 * DHS created a department recovery page, www.dhs.gov/recovery, where members of the public can learn about DHS-specific programs and track the Department’s progress in obligating funds and auditing work. A mapping tool, currently in the test phase, will allow users to visualize where DHS awards are making an impact.
 * National Information Exchange Model, launched 2005: NIEM is a federal, state, local and tribal interagency initiative providing a foundation for seamless information exchange. NIEM seeks to leverage the data exchange standards efforts successfully implemented by GLOBAL and extends the Global Justice XML Data Model (GJXDM) to facilitate timely, secure information sharing across the whole of the justice, public safety, emergency and disaster management, intelligence, and homeland security enterprise https://www.niem.gov/Pages/default.aspx
 * In 2009, In 2009, the Ready Campaign introduced a series of new social media tools to further engage Americans in taking steps to prepare for emergencies. At the center of the initiative is a Web page, “Be Prepared,” which features an interactive widget that provides users with updates on emergency situations, local emergency contact information, an instructional video, emergency kit checklists and guidelines on how to better prepare for an emergency. The program also includes a tool with which visitors can create their own comprehensive Family Emergency Plan and share important information with their family and friends. http://www.ready.gov/about-us
 * DHS, along the other federal regulatory agencies, publishes the Unified Agenda of Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions (“Unified Agenda”) twice per year, usually in April and November. The Unified Agenda summarizes the rules and proposed rules that DHS expects to issue in the coming year. Beginning with the fall 2007 edition, the complete Unified Agenda is now available online at Reginfo.gov

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> Goals: 


 *  National Initiative for Cybersecurity Awareness: A preliminary campaign, launched in March 2005, set up to be a two-way communication vehicle between government and the public sector to share ideas that are relevant and meaningful and could be a part of the solution to keeping our cyberspace safe. All information, messages, resources, and tips and recommendations will be available to the public through a website owned and operated by DHS. In addition to using national programs for Campaign messaging, DHS will also utilize “Friends of the Campaign” to engage the general public at the grassroots level. A series of toolkits and training resources will be rolled out in the coming months.  “Friends” will be asked to raise awareness of local cybersecurity vulnerabilities, leading at least one Campaign activity per year and identifying key personnel and celebrities in their area to further spread the Campaign message.
 * National Strategies for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace: focuses on the protection of the identity of each party to an online transaction and the identity of the underlying infrastructure that supports it. This Strategy seeks to improve cyberspace for everyone – individuals, private sector, and governments – who conduct business online.

 * USCIS Transformation Effort: Our Transformation team is working to create an entirely new automated system that will positively affect every aspect of the application process and the customer experience. One benefit of the transformed USCIS is that it will allow applicants and their advocate’s ready access to USCIS and will proactively provide detailed information about the status of benefit requests. The first phase of our Transformation will be deployed in mid 2011 and rollouts will continue for two years after that. In the meantime, USCIS continues to try to improve communication around an applicant’s case status. Recently, USCIS implemented the new My Case Status tool online at USCIS.gov. This tool allows customers to track the status of their application as it moves through the adjudications process.

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Goals: 

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Bureaucracy-Busting Flagship Initiatives:


 * Establish an Innovation Lab to fuel program and support area performance improvements: The innovation lab could explore the possibility of utilizing geo-located texting services to inform its most vulnerable customers about critical services in emergency situations. Another possible project is the development of an iPhone, Android, Windows 7, or other mobile operating system application that allows HUD’s stakeholders, partners, and customers to access relevant information about the locations of the Department’s field offices, local housing providers, or other relevant information.
 * Empower communities to combat homelessness utilizing predictive analytics: Through HUD’s Homelessness Resource Exchange (HRE) web site, field research, on-line surveys, and townhall meetings, HUD will seek input from community stakeholders and the public about how best to reduce and ultimately eliminate homelessness.
 * Build a Business Practices Exchange for Assisted Housing Providers to share ideas: The repository will be a community in which housing provider personnel, their customers, and the general public can collaborate and communicate with each other without the direct involvement of HUD. The Department will also utilize this tool to help local housing providers, especially those with limited resources, find and utilize previously developed plans, which will allow them to focus on delivering value to their customers.
 * Identify and Update Outdated Policies and Practices: These barriers to progress exist at the Federal, state, and local levels, and will require that HUD adopt a targeted and balanced effort to address them. Modifying outdated rules and regulations will not only increase HUD’s efficiency, but also help in changing the Department’s culture to one that is more proactive in identifying mission impediments and more flexible in serving its customers.

Flagship Initiatives


 * 1) FOIA

DOJ will create an online version of the Guide to the Freedom of Information Act, which will become a living document and reflect new development in FOIA as soon as they occur. No date.

The office of Information Policy will work with GSA and other interested stakeholders to develop metadata standards that will facilitate the ability of people to search for documents across agency websites. OIP will issue agency guidance for "tagging" information with a standard metadata when posting FOIA documents and proactive disclosures online. Guidance will be issued in 2012. Agency compliance will be mandated in FY2013.

OIP will issue a directive mandating the reporting of key FOIA statistics on a quarterly basis. (Sounds like it will be publicly available but does not clearly stipulate whether it will be online.) Directive will be issued in 2012. Compliance expected to begin in FY2013.

DOJ will expand the annual FOIA reporting tool (the one that makes XML reports) to give it the capacity to also make human readable reports (to reduce duplication and waste). This expansion will be available by FY2013.

OIP will develop an online FOIA training course to be available to all federal employees. This new training will include webinars starting in 2012.

e-Discovery Pilot Project - DOJ has developed a pilot program that seeks to leverage existing "e-discovery" tools used in litigation to process records responsive to FOIA requests. No date.
