Bill overview
This bill, the Strengthening Agency Management and Oversight of Software Assets Act, requires federal agencies and the Intelligence Community to assess their software inventory, develop management plans, and consolidate software licenses. It mandates comprehensive assessments including details on software contracts, costs, and interoperability, and directs agencies to create plans for cost-effective acquisition strategies and restrictions on software use. The bill also calls for OMB to provide recommendations for government software procurement policies and the GAO to report on agency software asset management practices.
