Bill overview
This bill, the Strengthening Agency Management and Oversight of Software Assets Act, aims to improve how federal agencies manage their software. It requires agencies to conduct a thorough assessment of their software licenses and inventory, develop a plan to consolidate licenses and adopt enterprise agreements, and submit this information to Congress and other government bodies. The bill also directs the Office of Management and Budget to create a governmentwide strategy to reduce software costs and improve interoperability, potentially including transitioning to open-source software.
