The Federal Information Resources Management (IRM) Review Program was initiated in fiscal year (FY) 1986 to ensure that federal agencies' IRM activities are selectively reviewed at least once during a triennial review cycle. This requirement is satisfied predominantly by agency-conducted reviews, the primary purpose being to improve the management of information resources so that the agency can accomplish its missions more efficiently and effectively. The Department's first triennial cycle covered the period FY 1986--FY 1988. The current cycle covers the period FY 1989--1991. IRM reviews may encompass any or all activities of planning, budgeting, organizing, directing, training, and control associated with the creation, collection, processing, transmission, dissemination, use, storage, and disposition of information by agencies. Agencies have been encouraged to take advantage of all ongoing review activity in the IRM area, such as reviews preparing for or resulting from the Office of Management and Budget spring planning and management reviews and/or fall budget reviews; vulnerability assessments and internal control reviews; financial management systems reviews; performance of commercial activity reviews; privacy and security reviews; information collection reviews; records management assessments; and internal audits, among others.
