Book excerpt: The department's vision of "One VA" was articulated to assist it in carrying out its mission of providing benefits and other services to veterans and dependents. It stems from the recognition that veterans think of VA as a single entity, but often encounter a confusing, bureaucratic maze of uncoordinated programs-such as those handling benefits, health care, and burials-that puts them through repetitive and frustrating administrative procedures and delays. According to the department, the "One VA" vision describes how it will use IT in versatile new ways to improve services and enable VA employees to help customers more quickly and effectively-in short, to really become "One VA."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overall, VA's IT investment decision-making process has improved, and it has started to implement recommendations we enumerated in May and August of this year. Further, VA is obtaining a full-time CIO now that the Administration has identified a candidate for the position. However, the department no longer plans to develop an overall strategy for reengineering its business processes to effectively function as "One VA," nor, has it defined the integrated IT architecture needed to efficiently acquire and utilize information systems across VA. In addition, VA lacks a uniform mechanism that readily tracks IT expenditures. Instead, VA's different offices use various mechanisms for tracking IT expenditures. VHA's Decision Support System (DSS) and VBA's compensation and pension replacement project continue to face challenges. As demonstrated in a survey to all Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISN) and medical centers directors, DSS is not being fully utilized. In addition, while VBA plans to pilot test portions of its compensation and pension replacement system in January 2001, other key issues need to be addressed before the system can be fully implemented. For example, VBA does not have a plan or schedule for converting data from the old system to the new system and exchanging data between the new system and other systems. Finally, regarding computer security, VA has begun to address weaknesses identified by us and its Office of Inspector General. But until it develops and implements a comprehensive, coordinated security management program, VA will have limited assurance that financial information and sensitive medical records are adequately protected from misuse, unauthorized disclosure, and/or destruction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has laid the groundwork for an integrated, departmentwide enterprise architecture--a blueprint for evolving its information systems and developing new systems to optimize their mission value. Crucial executive support is in place and the department has a strategy to define products and processes critical to its development. VA is now recruiting a chief architect to help implement and manage the enterprise architecture. VA has tried to strengthen its information security management program by mandating information security performance standards and greater management accountability for senior executives. It has also updated security policies, procedures, and standards to implement critical security measures. Despite these efforts, VA continues to report pervasive and serious information security weaknesses. The Veterans Benefits Administration is still far from launching a modernized system to replace its aging benefits delivery network. The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) has made good progress in expanding the use of its decision support system (DSS) for clinical and financial decision making. The use of DSS data for the fiscal year 2002 resource allocation process, and a requirement that veteran integrated service network directors better account for their use of this system, have raised awareness of, and promoted its use, among VHA facilities. VA has made little progress in sharing data with the Department of Defense and Indian Health Service as part of a computer-based patient record initiative. Implementation strategies continue to be revised, the scope of the initiative has been substantially narrowed, and it continues to operate without clear lines of authority or comprehensive, coordinated plans.
