About the Office of the CIO:
The Office oversees the expenditure of approximately $1.5 billion each year for computer hardware, software, and services, and for networking and telecommunications and other information technology (IT). This is accomplished by the development of policies and other guidance for Department-wide planning and use of IT, and through a capital asset management process centered around a Commerce IT Review Board. This process reviews and evaluates proposed IT initiatives and requests for acquisitions, and also reviews and evaluates ongoing IT projects.
