This year we have a lot to sing about and we're jazzed to announce CPIC 2012!

Over a decade since the inception of the Clinger-Cohen Act, Capital Planning and Investment Control (CPIC) has directly impacted the way we manage our programs, how we monitor cost and schedule, how we evaluate performance, and how we select assets within portfolios in government, in order to determine budget prioritization. Guidance constantly changes instructing us as to how we must report the progress and sustainment of our assets to the Office of Management and Budget. The Obama Administration created and released USASpending.gov along with the IT Dashboard, permitting widespread visibility into how assets perform and how much budget is associated with federal investments. The IT Dashboard has already encountered an uncertain fate, being subject to budget cuts like many other investments throughout the Federal enterprise. Consistently we see CPIC Exhibits 53 and 300 remaining the gauge for Congress and the Executive Office of the President highlighting the transparency, accountability and performance information directly derived from agency investments' IT portfolios.
  With changes in guidance and Exhibit reports, shifts in Administrative
"Orchestration," and with the implementation of new reporting "instruments," Capital Planning professionals need to "Stay in Tune," by attending the CPIC Conference to perform "on key," or at least "stay in rhythm."
The 5th Annual Federal Capital Planning & Investment Control Conference (CPIC 2012 – Stay in Tune With Today's CPIC Environment) will help Capital Planners understand what is changing, how to adjust, and what strategies can be used to address future trends. Did you know that Regulation is the term that is used to refer to the intricate adjustments to the action of a piano (the part between the keys and the strings) to make it play and feel the way it should? There are an average of over 9,000 parts in a piano, so regulating all the minute intricacies helps the piano perform the best way it can. Pianos need to be "regulated" or "tuned" in order to keep them in good working condition. CPIC 2012 is the only Capital Planning and IT Planning conference that brings together both government and industry professionals for timely and valuable information on Federal CPIC trends, regulatory compliance issues, best practices, methodologies, lessons learned, as well as tools for "regulation" so that our agency, like a piano, can be "in concert" with other agencies as well as oversight authorities.
This year the 5th Annual Federal CPIC Conference (CPIC 2012) will:
  • emphasize the Administrative priorities for managing IT and other portfolios, as well as reporting Exhibits compliantly
  • emphasize content of compliant artifacts
  • provide insights and information from the Office of Management and Budget (priorities, the future of reporting, IT Dashboard)
Over 250 attendees are expected, with an outstanding government and industry line-up of renowned CPIC speakers. The Conference has grown annually with a loyal Sponsor community including Booz Allen Hamilton, Oracle Primavera, Microsoft, HP, CHEVO, MCRI, Federal Concierge, Training Outreach, ESI International, Management Concepts, Government Training, Inc., etc.
I am thrilled to announce our Government Co-Chair from Social Security Administration, Jennifer Haggerty, and our Industry Co-Chair Chris De Francisci, Deloitte Consulting.
I sincerely appreciate the SSA's and Deloitte's tremendous support as we work to bring you another memorable CPIC Conference.
I hope to see you there!

Capital Planning and Investment Control (CPIC) is a structured, integrated approach to managing information technology (IT) investments. It is the primary process for making investment decisions, assessing investment process effectiveness, and refining investment related policies and procedures. It ensures that all IT investments align with the agency’s mission and support business needs while minimizing risks and maximizing returns through the investment’s lifecycle.

CPIC is mandated by the Clinger-Cohen Act which requires government agencies to use a disciplined process to acquire, use, maintain and dispose of information technology (IT). CPIC relies on a systematic approach to IT investment management in three distinct phases: Select, Control and On-Going Evaluation, to ensure each investment’s objectives support the business and mission needs of the Agency.
