To improve information system general controls over NBC-Denver financial operations, we are recommending that NBC-Denver correct the computer security weaknesses identified and implement an effective entitywide computer security management program. The acting assistant director of NBC-Denver stated that he agreed to correct the weaknesses that we identified, and at the completion of our fieldwork, he provided us with a comprehensive corrective action plan to address each of them. In commenting on a draft of this reort, the Acting Assistant Secretary for policy, management, and budget agreed with our recommendations. He noted that approximately 50 percent of the recommendations had already been implemented and that all of them would be implemented by December 31, 2001.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST), a laboratory of the Department of Commerce, was a major player in the Clinton Administration's strategy for civilian technology investment. However, the 104th Congress cut funding levels 18% between FY1995 and FY1997. In FY1998, this trend was temporarily reversed when the NIST budget increased 20% primarily due to additional financing for construction. FY1999 appropriations were 5% below the previous year, while FY2000 support remained constant. In FY2001, the NIST appropriation decreased 6% to $598.3 million as a result of fewer construction dollars. For FY2002, President Bush has requested $487.5 million to fund NIST, almost 19% below the current fiscal year. While new funding for the Advanced technology Program(ATP) would be curtailed, the budget proposal includes an 11% percent increase in support for the laboratory's internal research and development activities. H.R. 2500, as passed by the House, would provide $490 million for NIST, an 18% decrease as a result of the absence of funding for ATP. The version of H.R. 2500 passed by the Senate would finance NIST at $696.5 million, 42% above the House bill and 16% more than FY2001, as funding for ATP would substantially increase.

Small Business Innovation Research Program 스크랩

In 1982, the Small Business Innovation Development Act(P.L. 97-219) established small business innovation research (SBIR) programs within the major federal research and development(R&D) agencies. The intent of the effort was to increase government funding of small, high technology companies for the performance of R&D with commercial potential. Federal departments with an R&D budget of $100 million or more are required to set aside part of this amount to finance the SBIR activity. From its inception in FY1983 through FY2000, almost $11 billion in awards have been made for over 59,500 projects. The original program has been extended several times and is currently scheduled to sunset on September 30, 2008.

Technology Transfer : DOE has fewer partnerships, and they rely more on private funding 스크랩

NNSA officials and laboratory managers identified various advantages and disadvantages of collabrative research under a CRADA. In particular, CRADAs can leverage NNSA'research funds with additional private funding, scientists, and equipment that extend NNSA's research capabilities. CRADAs also have enabled NNSA's laboratories to maintain core competencies in research and manufacturing and recruit and retain key scientists challenged by interesting research projects. However, CRADAs require NNSA's laboratories to share control over the scope of the research, project time frames, and intellectual property rights; and they may divert research funds to projects with only only secondary benefits to NNSA's core mission. NNSA laboratory managers identified two alternatives-establishing an advocate within NNSA to facilitate funding for CRADAs and setting aside a small portion of research funding specifically to provide initial support for misison-related CRADAs - that would increase NNSA's current management and financial support for CRADAs and potentially increase the number of agreements.

Electronic Government : Selected agency plans for implementing the government paperwork elimination act 스크랩

The plans submitted by treasury and EPA generally provide the kind of information that was specified in OMB's July 2000 guidance. However, DOD's plan did not include a description of the department's overall GPEA strategy and, in some cases, the data provided for specific information collections may be inaccurate, incomplete, or duplicative. Officials of all three agencies said that they faced challenges in complying with GPEA, particularly with regard to implementing adequate security assurances for sensitive electronic transactions and in planning for and implementing computer network infrastructures. Further, OMB will be challenged in providing oversight of agency GPEA activities because the plans submitted by the agencies do not document key strategic actions, nor do they specify when they will be undertaken. Taken in isolation, the plans do not provide sufficient information to assess agencies' progress in meeting the objectives of the act. To address this issue, OMB may wish to require agencies to report on major agencywide activities, including specific planned tasks and milestones and the rationale for adopting them.

Export controls : Regulatory change needed to comply with missile technology licensing requirements 스크랩

The Department of Commerce's export regulations are not consistent with the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1991 amendment to the Export Administration Act for missile technology to all countries. However, the Department of Commerce's regulations do not require licenses for the export of controlled missile equipment and technology to Canada. The Department of Commerce did not cite nay section of this statute or its legislative history to justify the inconsistency between its regulations and the statutory requirement. Additionally, we found nothing in the legislative history to indicate that congress intended to allow controlled missile items to be exempt from licensing requirements. Accounting to Department of Commerce officials, Congress is aware of this exemption through an annaul report on foreign policy export controls and, to their knowledge, congress never intended to end the regulatory exemption for missile-related exports to Canada when the law was passed. The Department of State's export regulations are consistent with the National defense authorization act for fiscal year 1991 amendment to the arms export control act. While that amendment did not mandate that the department of state require licenses for missile technology items, other provisions of the arms export control act provide the department discretionary authority to require licenses or provide exemptions.

Rather, DLA plans call for creating an architecture as a by-product of BSM's implementation. Moreover, DLA's architecture development plans address only one, albeit the largest, of its six primary business areas - materiel management (also called supply - chain management). According to DLA's plans, its architectural products will not be extended to its other business areas until 5 years from now. This nonagencywide approach to developing and implementing an enterprise architecture is not consistent with federal guidance, and it increases the risk that DLA will modernize in a way that optimizes an individual business area but does not optimize agencywide logistics management performance and accountability. Further, DLA does not have effective management structures and processes to support architecture development, as defined in chief information officers (CIO) council guidance. At the completion of our review, DLA officials stated that they would modify their plans and expeditously pursue an agencywide architecture development and implementation approach, consistent with federal and DOD policies and guidance.
