PSC Encouraged by White House Report on Federal IT Modernization


Arlington, V.A (August 31, 2017) The Professional Services Council (PSC) supports the Trump Administration’s commitment to bring more innovation into government, modernize federal IT systems, and help agencies leverage commercial technologies and best practices. PSC is the voice of the government technology and professional services industry, representing the full range and diversity of the government services sector.

The draft “Report to the President on Federal IT Modernization,” released August 30, includes recommendations to improve cybersecurity, accelerate the adoption of commercial cloud computing tools, and expand the use of shared services where appropriate. Replacing outdated federal IT can not only improve cybersecurity, but also support agency process innovation to deliver better services at better value to all Americans. 

PSC looks forward to working with the Administration and will provide more detailed comments and recommendations on the draft report soon.
