Federal<br />

Electronic Government (E-Government) Act of 2002<br />

(P.L. 107-347)<br />

This law requires agencies to develop performance<br />

measures for implementing E-Government, defined by the<br />

act as "web-based Internet applications or other<br />

information technology to enhance access to and delivery<br />

of government information and services to the public,<br />

other agencies, and other government entities; or to bring<br />

about improvements in government operations." The act<br />

also requires agencies to support government-wide E-<br />

Government initiatives and to leverage cross-agency<br />

opportunities to further E-Government.<br />

<strong>Executive</strong> Order 13011 Federal Information<br />

Technology (1996)<br />

This directive instructs Federal agencies to improve the<br />

management of information systems; refocus IT<br />

management in support of strategic missions; establish<br />

clear accountability for information resources<br />

management activities; and promote a coordinated,<br />

interoperable, secure, and shared Government-wide<br />

infrastructure.<br />

Federal Information Security Management Act<br />

(FISMA - 2002)<br />

As part of the part of the E-Government Act of 2002, this<br />

law establishes a framework to protect the government’s<br />

information, operations, and assets. FISMA requires<br />

agencies to integrate IT security into their capital planning<br />

processes, conduct annual IT security reviews of all<br />

programs and systems, and report the results of those<br />

reviews to OMB.<br />

Federal Records Act of 1950<br />

Establishes the framework for records management<br />

programs in Federal agencies. As the primary agency for<br />

records management oversight, the National Archives and<br />

Records Administrations (NARA) is responsible for<br />

assisting Federal agencies in maintaining adequate and<br />

proper documentation of policies and transactions of the<br />

Federal government. This is done by appraising records<br />

(determining record value and final disposition of<br />

temporary or permanent records), regulating and<br />

approving the disposition of Federal records, operating the<br />

Federal Records Centers, and preserving permanent<br />

records.<br />

Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA)<br />

This law provides for the establishment of strategic<br />

planning and performance measurement in the Federal<br />

government and encourages collaboration between OMB<br />

and Federal Agencies to develop outcome oriented,<br />

program specific performance measures.<br />
