Thinking of How to Go About Preparing your Data Strategic Plan?
Last week, we took a look at the Federal Data Strategy Action Plan, a plan intended to impact the entirety of the Federal Government. Individual agencies are also developing their own specific plans, like the Department of Commerce, which recently published their Data Strategy for Fiscal Years 2021-2024. In sharing their opportunities and struggles, Commerce — also known as “America’s Data Agency" — aspires to demonstrate data leadership through implementation. The Commerce Data Strategy details five goals, ranging from governing and managing data to coordinating collaborative data innovation. Check it out to see the positive impacts Commerce is hoping to have on federal data!
