CIO COUNCIL
Committees
CIO Council committees, through their subcommittees and working groups, manage projects on behalf of the CIO Council to keep the Federal IT community up to date on important, timely issues.

Currently, there are six CIO Council committees:
  1. The Accessibility Committee ensures that agencies monitor their accessibility performance and consider a variety of internal controls, holding agency managers accountable for providing an accessible environment.
  2. The Strategy and Planning Committee develops policy, direction, and guidance to drive business process improvement, investment management, and technical decisions.
  3. The Management Best Practices Committee serves as a focal point for promoting information management/information technology (IM/IT) best practices within the Federal Government.
  4. The Information Security and Identity Management Committee collaborates on identifying high-priority security and identity management initiatives and developing recommendations for policies, procedures, and standards to address those initiatives.
  5. The IT Workforce Committee advocates for strategies to help develop and maintain an effective IT workforce.
  6. The Privacy Committee improves agency practices for the protection of privacy, serving as the interagency coordination group for Senior Agency Officials for Privacy (SAOP) and Chief Privacy Officers (CPO) in Federal Government.
An additional committee, the Executive Committee, is made up of the chairs of the operational committees and supports Council operations and the management of budget and cross-committee initiatives. The CIO Council also partners with other Federal executive councils to address challenges that cut across disciplines, such as financial management and procurement.
