AGENCY:
The Office of Federal

issuing a Circular entitled ‘‘Strategic
Management of Acquisition Data and
Information.’’ This Circular will
improve agency access to reliable data
and information at the point of need
throughout the acquisition lifecycle to
ensure successful contracting outcomes
without duplicating data, tools, or effort.
The Circular establishes a centralized
data management strategy to allow for

the creation of more comprehensive

and resources for acquisition-related
decision-making in a Hi-Definition

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Overview
Across the Federal enterprise, there
are tens of billions of acquisition data
points residing in over 170 contract
writing systems (including legacy
systems) and over 15 payment
processing platforms. Historically, much
of this data has been collected and
managed at the agency level. Agencies
have used their resources to build tools
within their agency, harnessing internal
data and databases, but this has often
led to duplicative tools and efforts and
a lack of coordination across agencies.
This approach has limited central
capacity for analytics, insights, and
efficiency gains outside of the System
for Award Management and the Federal
Procurement Data System, which
generally provide aggregate data but
very little pricing and best practices
information.
To address these challenges, OMB’s
new Circular establishes a centralized
data management policy framework for
the creation of a High-Definition
Environment (HDE). Through the HDE,
which is the technical architecture for
the data, users will have access to the
right data at the point of need through
a single, central access point, better
enabling them to buy as an organized
entity. Creating the HDE is a critical
component of the acquisition
community’s work to make purchases as
an organized enterprise. The HDE will
provide agencies with access to the
breadth and depth of information
needed to support the acquisition needs
of the Federal Government—the largest
and most sophisticated buyer in the
world.
Achieving the HDE will require
greater transparency and collaboration
in agency data systems planning and
investment decisions. This is
particularly true with respect to
activities that would affect the
Government’s ability to achieve data
interoperability for information that is
critical or can otherwise significantly
improve acquisition decision-making at
