IRM Vision 21: Information resources management into the 21st Century: A strategic planning program
Information resources management (IRM) performs an essential and integral part in the Department's effort to meet the legislated mandates, accomplish the missions and implement the goals and initiatives. Information is a key commodity produced and used by DOE, and the management of that information, the processes and the technologies needed must be coordinated throughout all Departmental elements and their contractors. While the implementation of IRM is carried out at every site, the Department recognized the need for a centralized focus to establish common policy and provide coordination of IRM activities on a Department-wide basis. With the reorganization of the Office of Administration and Management, IRM functions were consolidated under the Office of Information Resources Management. The purpose of this Office is to provide that focus and to maximize the value, quality and use of the Department's information resources in the accomplishment of DOE's missions and objectives. A comprehensive IRM program, implemented effectively, ensures that all the various information management functions are performed in a coordinated and cost-effective manner, thus contributing to the success of DOE's programmatic missions.
