Dave Powner, executive director of MITRE'S Center for Data-Driven Policy and director of strategic engagement and partnerships, talks with Government Matters TV, outlining his suggestions for IT modernization in the new year.
“We need to get out of the gate quickly with the new administration on this legacy challenge,” Powner said.
He also discussed ways to improve the FITARA scorecard—the biannual report card that measures progress on eliminating duplication and waste in IT acquisition.
In a separate interview with Federal News Network, Powner offered guidance on what incoming CIOs should try to accomplish at federal agencies at the start of the Biden administration.
