SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The United States is a founding 

member of the Open Government 

Partnership (OGP), a voluntary, global 

alliance between governments and civil 

society to bolster democracy through 

openness, transparency, and public 

engagement. At the core of OGP is a 

belief in community-centered 

governance, and a pledge to transform 

the way the public sector serves and is 

accountable to its people. As a multitiered platform, OGP includes countrylevel and local government-level 

members, as well as thousands of civil 

society organization partners. OGP 

members are required to work and 

collaborate with civil society to create 

national or local action plans every two 

to three years, implement meaningful 

transparency and accountability 

commitments, publicly report on 

progress, and submit to independent 

monitoring and reporting. This RFI will 

provide input into the 6th U.S. Open 

Government National Action Plan the 

United States is developing under this 

initiative. You can access the previous 

U.S. Open Government National Action 

Plans in the resource section of the new 

U.S. Open Government Secretariat 

website at https://www.gsa.gov/ 

usopengov. 

The Open Government Secretariat, in 

collaboration with the White House

74276 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 177 / Thursday, September 12, 2024 / Notices 

Office of Science and Technology Policy 

(OSTP) and the new Open Government 

Federal Advisory Committee, is leading 

the development of the 6th U.S. Open 

Government National Action Plan. The 

U.S. Open Government Secretariat is 

responsible for coordinating this effort 

and ensuring the plan reflects the input 

and priorities of diverse stakeholders. 

This RFI is intended to gather diverse 

ideas and suggestions for the U.S.’s 6th 

Open Government National Action Plan. 

Your input is crucial in shaping a plan 

that reflects the needs and priorities of 

the American people. In addition to, or 

as an alternative to, submitting written 

feedback in response to this RFI, you are 

invited to attend a virtual listening 

session hosted by GSA on Wednesday, 

October 9, 2024 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. 

ET. This on-the-record and recorded 

session offers an opportunity to gain 

further insight and provide live input. 

Registration is required. Please register 

for the event at https://

II. Considerations for Responses 

When submitting your ideas, please 

keep in mind that all potential 

commitments must align with the 

resource constraints of the U.S. 

government. This includes 

considerations such as budget, 

personnel, and the feasibility of 

implementation. Commitments 

included in the 6th U.S. Open 

Government National Action Plan will 

need to be specific, measurable, 

achievable, relevant, and time-bound 

(SMART). 

Respondents are encouraged to 

structure their ideas around one of the 

10 challenge themes in the Open 

Government Challenge, available at 

https://www.opengovpartnership.org/

the-open-gov-challenge. These themes 

provide a comprehensive framework to 

structure responses and ensure all 

aspects of open government are 

considered. 

The U.S. Open Government 

Secretariat values all contributions and 

will carefully review each submission 

based on the above criteria. GSA will 

review and consider the usability and 

applicability of each of the responses to 

this RFI in shaping the 6th U.S. Open 

Government National Action Plan. That 

being said, all RFI responses will be 

made available to the Open Government 

Federal Advisory Committee as input 

into their official recommendations to 

the commitments that should be 

included in the 6th U.S. Open 

Government National Action Plan. To 

help refine your proposals, respondents 

may wish to review previous U.S. Open 

Government National Action Plans 

(https://www.gsa.gov/governmentwideinitiatives/us-open-government/ 

resources#tab--National-Action-Plans) 

to see if similar ideas have been 

addressed before. 

III. Topics and Key Questions 

You are invited to provide ideas for 

new topics and commitments that could 

be included in the 6th U.S. Open 

Government National Action Plan. 

Respondents do not need to respond to 

every question and may provide 

additional feedback for the U.S. Open 

Government Secretariat to consider in 

developing and implementing the 6th 

U.S. Open Government National Action 

Plan. Specifically, GSA is looking for: 

1. Problem Identification: Please 

explain a specific problem that open 

government can address. Identify unmet 

needs, broken processes, and problems 

around transparency, participation, and 

accountability. Explain how open 

government commitments can deliver a 

more responsive, equitable, and 

accountable government for and by the 

people. 

2. Opportunities to Build on Existing 

Work: Identify existing work by a 

federal government agency or outside of 

the government, such as by civil society 

individuals or nongovernmental 

organizations, that can be built upon to 

support open government efforts. How 

can these efforts be expanded or 

enhanced to create meaningful 

commitments? 

3. Innovative Approaches: What 

innovative approaches or emerging 

technologies could the government 

explore to enhance transparency, public 

participation, and accountability? How 

could these be integrated into the 6th 

U.S. Open Government National Action 

Plan? 

4. Resources and Recommendations: 

Suggest existing reports, collections of 

recommendations, and landscape 

analyses that can help inform a 

comprehensive, responsive, and 

evidence-based co-creation process for 

the 6th U.S. Open Government National 

Action Plan.

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agencies estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; 

(d) Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including, through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses; and 

(e) Assess information collection 

costs.
