Fiscal Year 2019

Released April, 2018

Goal 5. Objective 3: Optimize information technology investments to improve process efficiency and enable innovation to advance program mission goals

HHS information technology investments help achieve the Department’s mission by acquiring and managing the technology infrastructure and systems for its health care and human services programs and mission-support programs. From externally facing websites like HHS.gov to internal applications that manage programs and resources, HHS needs information technology solutions to be modernized, secure, and responsive to customer demands.

The HHS Information Technology Strategic Plan 2017–2020 and the HHS Implementation Plan for the Federal Information Technology Acquisition Reform Act (FITARA) guide information technology decision making across the Department. The Department’s current modernization investments include cloud computing, data center consolidation and improvements, information technology portfolio reviews, shared services, and a digital strategy that makes it easier to access information using HHS websites and tools. HHS is working to increase partnerships with industry, academia, and other organizations to leverage their technology expertise as well.

The Office of the Secretary leads this objective. All divisions contribute to the achievement of this objective.
