MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Data Processing
FROM: John N. McMahon
Deputy Director for Operations
SUBJECT: FY 1980 Review of Automatic Data Processing
Projects
REFERENCE: Memo to EXCOM Members from D/ODP, dated
26 March 1980, same subject, (ODP-0-358)
1. In my view, we should continue our annual Executive
Committee review of Automatic Data Processing (ADP) projects,
which has served to facilitate management decisions in this area
of activity. As the review process appears to be well regarded
by CIA's oversight authorities, it affords us added leverage to
insist upon the validity of our internal resource decisions with
respect to ADP.
2. I urge that the process continue to evolve in the
direction of minimal bureaucracy and limited demands upon the
Committee's time. It should require only 2-3 sessions each year
and should focus primarily upon significant new project
initiatives and upon outstanding policy, planning and organi-
zational issues. STATINTL
