On May 31, 2021, the Chief Data Officers Council (CDOC) released the results of their survey of Chief Data Officers (CDOs) meant to assess the organizational reporting and grade for CDOs, the areas of responsibility for CDOs, and the most common challenges.
Survey on Improving Data Management in Government by Chief Data Officers
Improving data management and inventory is a priority for federal agencies. Congress passed the bipartisan Foundations for Evidence-Based Policymaking Act (Evidence Act) in 2018, setting clear expectations for federal agencies on data governance. The Evidence Act formalized the role of the Chief Data Officer (CDO) in agencies and standardized CDOs responsibilities.
