Revision to DOE Order 200.1A
The revision to DOE Order 200.1A, Information Technology Management, is in the final stages
of approval to address new and changing IT management issues. The revised Order will put in
place consistent and basic IT management functions/practices to ensure the IT that is acquired
meets missions requirements at lowest practical costs. The revision should ultimately increase
savings and enhance department productivity by establishing requirements for implementing IT
management processes and outlining policies and procedures for effectively managing IT
investments.

The majority of HQ program and staff offices are now serviced by EITS (approximately 5,000
