President's Council on Management Improvement
NOV n 1s
MEMORANDUM FOR HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES
FROM: Gerald R. Riso
Vice Chairman
SUBJECT: Management Guidelines for Information
Dissemination Products and Services
In recognition of the significant improvements in managing
printed publications that Federal agencies have made over the
past several years, the President's Council on Management
Improvement (PCMI) established a working group to review and
analyze electronic dissemination of information products and
services to determine if, and how, their management might be
similarly improved.
The PCMI's working group prepared the attached document,
"Management Guidelines for Information Dissemination Products and
Services." It provides. a. single document containing guidelines
from various sources for managing all types of information
dissemination products and services, regardless of the media
used. If incorporated into the management policies and practices
of agencies, these guidelines could improve the management and
control of information dissemination products and services and
improve access to the Government's information by both private
or public sector users.
OMB will use the guidelines as input to its currently ongoing
revision of Government-wide information policies, and will call
on PCMI's working group to assist in providing a coordinated and
integrated approach to information dissemination. Until refined
direction can be issued, Federal managers may wish to incorporate
the guidelines, particularly the control aspects, into their
management practices for all information dissemination products
and services.

MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES
FOR-
INFORMATION DISSEMINATION PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
1. PURPOSE. To provide guideline's for Federal agencies to follow in managing
t eiir information dissemination products and services.
2. BACKGROUND. These Federal agency guidelines were developed by the
President's Council on Management Improvement. OMB Circular A-130,
"Management of Federal Information Resources," establishes policy for the
management of information resources within the Government. A basic
premise of this Circular is to "assist agencies in an integrated approach
to information management." This premise led to the development of these
guidelines to cover the dissemination of products and services regardless
of the media in which the information is contained; printed, audiovisual,
or electronic.
3. SCOPE. Information dissemination products and services are defined in
OMB Bulletin 87-14, "Report and Inventory of Government Information
Dissemination Products and Services," to be:
a. "Any publication issued by a Federal agency annually or more often
with a format, content, and purpose consistent in nature."
b. "Any publication issued by a Federal agency on a one-edition basis.
This includes leaflets, bulletins, folders, books, booklets, reports,
speeches, and similar nonrecurring publications, including those
reprinted based on evidence of need to maintain inventory."
c. "Machine-readable data files, software files, on-line database
services, and electronic bulletin boards, issued or disseminated by
agencies to the general public. Dissemination to the general public
means distributing without limitation as to recipients and entails
public announcement of distribution."
OMB Circular No. A-114, "Management of Federal Audiovisual Activities",
defines audiovisual productions as:
"A unified presentation, developed according to a plan or script,
containing visual imagery, sound, or both, and used to convey
information. Audiovisual productions include slide sets, film strips,
motion pictures, television (videotape and disc), audio recordings
(tape and disc) and multimedia (any combination of two or more media)
productions."

Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/10/24: CIA-RDP90G01353RO01500150001-3
4. GUIDELINES. Agencies should:-
a. Disseminate information, as required by law, describing agency
organization, activities, programs, meetings, systems of records, and
other information holdings, and h.ow the public may gain access to
agency information resources.
b. Disseminate such information products and services as are:
(1) specifically required by law; or
(2) necessary for the proper performance of agency functions,
provided that the latter do not duplicate similar products or
services that are or would otherwise be provided by other
government or private sector organizations.
c. Establish policies and procedures to protect the public's right of
access to Government information and the individual's right to
privacy in information activities.
d. Disseminate Government information products and services:
(1) in a manner that ensures that members of the public whom the
agency has an obligation to reach have a reasonable ability to
acquire the information;
(2) in the manner most cost effective for the Government, including
placing maximum feasible reliance on the private sector for the
dissemination of the products or services; and
(3) so as to recover costs of disseminating the products or services
through user charges, where appropriate.
e. Consult regularly with users or potential users of the information
when designing, redesigning, or periodically auditing information
dissemination products or services. Carefully consider user's
suggestions concerning format, media, timing, or other considerations
to assure that the product has initially, and continues to
effectively serve user needs within the scope of the agency's mission
and the constraints of budgets, and while satisfying legal,
regulatory, and other requirements.
f. Disseminate significant new, or terminate significant existing,
information products and services only after providing adequate
notice to the public.
g. In the design and implementation of information dissemination
products or services, maintain appropriate data control to assure the
integrity of Government information while providing for equitable
access by the public.

Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/10/24: CIA-RDP90G01353RO01500150001-3
h. Create or collect only that information necessary for the proper
performance of agency functions and that has practical utility, and
only after planning for its processing,' transmission, dissemination,
use, storage, and disposition.
i. Establish a management control system providing for the oversight of
information dissemination activities at a policy level within the
agency and which meets the applicable criteria set forth in 0MB
Bulletin 81-15, and as set forth below--including:
(1) Establishing and maintaining comprehensive inventories of all
information dissemination products and services in electronic
format. Abstracts and keywords should be included for all
inventory entries;
(2) Making such inventories available to the public, either directly
or through intermediaries such as other Federal agencies or
private sector entities, as an aid in locating Government
information products and services;
(3) Ensuring the need or purpose for periodicals, pamphlets,
audiovisual products, and other information dissemination
products and services is confirmed by policy levels of agency
management before procurement or other implementation action is
requested. Factors such as relationship to agency mission,
cost, timeliness, potential size, and alternate means of
communication should be considered; and
(4) Providing for periodic review of the need or purpose and
manner of dissemination in order to determine if the
requirements continue to exist or need revision.
Minimize the cost and maximize the usefulness of Government
information activities. The expected public and private benefits
derived from Government information, insofar as they are calculable,
should exceed the public and private costs of the information.
k. Examine information dissemination products and services to determine
whether conditions favor electronic dissemination. Conditions
favorable to electronic dissemination include:
(1) The information dissemination is relatively large;
(2) Timely access to current data is important to the users;
(3) The information dissemination is relatively frequent; i.e.,
annually or more frequent;
(4) The need to update the material is relatively frequent;

Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/10/24: CIA-RDP90G01353RO01500150001-3
(5) The agency routinely collects the information in or converts it
to electronic format;
(6) A substantial number of the recipients are known to possess the
necessary information technology to access the information; and
(7) Conversion to electronic dissemination will not impose
substantial costs or other adverse effects on recipients,
especially small business entities.
1. Where the conditions appear favorable, conduct benefit-cost analyses
and actively pursue the design and development of electronic
dissemination systems where the benefits outweigh the start-up and
other costs both to the Government and to the recipients.
m. Incorporate records management and archival considerations in the
design, development, and implementation of information dissemination
products or services to ensure adequate control and preservation of
Government records under existing law and regulation.
n. Design and implement information systems only after considering the
effective and efficient management of the entire life cycle of the
information contained within the system i.e., creation, collection,
processing, transmission, dissemination, use, storage, and
disposition.
o. Where the end product has commercial value, provide a "wholesale"
product/service to permit vendors to add value for final consumer
purchase, e.g., disseminate basic information products (such as a
complete data base) whenever possible, permitting the private sector
to offer a value-added information service direct to end user.
p. Avoid disseminating information products or services which place the
Government in competition with industry.
q. Design products or services and contractual arrangements so that no
party receives a commercial advantage over other information users.
r. Encourage the open and efficient exchange of Government scientific
and technical information, subject to applicable national security
controls and proprietary rights others may have in such information.

dissemination systems where the benefits outweigh the start-up and
other costs both to the Government and to the recipients.
m. Incorporate records management and archival considerations in the
design, development, and implementation of information dissemination
products or services to ensure adequate control and preservation of
Government records under existing law and regulation.
n. Design and implement information systems only after considering the
effective and efficient management of the entire life cycle of the
information contained within the system i.e., creation, collection,
processing, transmission, dissemination, use, storage, and
disposition.
o. Where the end product has commercial value, provide a "wholesale"
product/service to permit vendors to add value for final consumer
purchase, e.g., disseminate basic information products (such as a
complete data base) whenever possible, permitting the private sector
to offer a value-added information service direct to end user.
p. Avoid disseminating information products or services which place the
Government in competition with industry.
Design products or services and contractual arrangements so that no
party receives a commercial advantage over other information users.
r. Encourage the open and efficient exchange of Government scientific
and technical information, subject to applicable national security
controls and proprietary rights others may have in such information.

TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS
.SUBJECT: Report on Government Information Dissemination
Products and Services
1. Purpose. This Bulletin provides instructions and materials
for submitting the Report on Government Information Dissemination
Products and Services for FY 1988. The report is an extension of
information previously required under OMB Bulletin No. 87-14.
2. Background. Section 1108 of Title 44 stipulates that the
heads of executive departments, independent agencies, and
establishments may use appropriated funds for the printing of
periodicals with the approval of the Director of the Office of
Management and Budget. OMB Circular No. A-3, Government
Publications (revised May 2, 1985), which implements this
provision of Title 44, requires agencies to report annually on
periodicals and non-recurring publications and to maintain an
OMB-approved control system.
In addition, OMB Circular No. A-130, Management of Federal
Information Resources, provides a general policy framework for
the management of all information resources, and states that
agencies shall maintain an inventory of information dissemination
programs (Section 9a (5)). Integrated management of information
dissemination is an essential element of overall information
resources management. Agencies currently disseminate information
not only in printed publications but also in electronic format.
To achieve adequate management of the information dissemination
function, agencies must maintain inventories of all their
information products and services, subject these products and
services to systematic management controls, and develop and
implement internal policies and procedures for management of the
products and services.
3. Coverage. The requirements of this Bulletin apply to all
departments, independent agencies, and establishments of the
executive branch of the government.
4. Definition. As used in this Bulletin, "information
dissemination products and services" means: (a) periodicals as
defined in OMB Circular No. A-3; and (b) machine-readable data
files (including CD-ROMs), software, online database services,
and electronic bulletin boards, issued or disseminated by
agencies to the general public. Dissemination to the general

public means distributing without restriction as to who may
receive the product or service, and entails some form of public
announcement of distribution. Distribution limited to government
employees or to agency contractors or grantees is not considered
dissemination to the public. For the purposes of this Bulletin
audiovisual products are not included because they are covered
under OMB Circular No. A-114, Management of Federal Audiovisual
Activities.
5. Changes from Last Year's Bulletin. This Bulletin differs
from OMB Bulletin No. 87-14 in two ways: a reduction in the
amount of information requested in Attachment A; and a
simplification'of the method of reporting.
Reduced Information in Attachment A. OMB Bulletin No. 87-14
requested 14 information items for each entry in Attachment A.
This year's Bulletin requests only 11 items, and simplifies.
another. Item 7, the basis for the agency's approval of the
information product or service, has been simplified to a yes-no
response. The following items from last year's request have been
dropped: First Issue Date; Agency Volume; and GPO or Other
Federal Agency Collections.
Simplified Method of Reporting. For agencies responding to
OMB Bulletin No. 87-14, OMB will provide a copy of last year's
report for Attachment A. To respond to this year's Bulletin,
agencies need only verify and update last year's Attachment A,
supply this year's information for Attachment B, provide requests
for approval of new periodicals as needed, and provide the
required cover letter.
6. Required Materials. Report on Government Information
Dissemination Products and Services. As in previous years,
agencies shall report on their information dissemination products
and services as indicated in the attachments below.
a. Cover Letter. In the cover letter the agency head, or
his or her designee, shall certify that the reported periodicals
are necessary in the transaction of the public business required
by law of that department, independent agency, or establishment,
and that dissemination of all other information products and
services is required by law or necessary for the proper
performance of agency functions. The letter shall also certify
that mailing lists have been updated, and cite actions taken to
consolidate or streamline the lists as well as provide a
rationale for any net increases.
