<p>July 28, 2004</p> <p><br> Ms. April Schweighart<br> Chair, Visiting Committee on Advanced Technology<br> National Institute of Standards and Technology<br> 3205 Barker Hollow Pass<br> Austin, TX 78739</p> <p>Dear April,</p> <p>Thank you for your feedback on the June 8 - 9, 2004 Visiting Committee on Advanced Technology (VCAT) meeting. As usual, the VCAT helps NIST see both our strengths and the areas where we can improve to ensure that we are maximizing our ability to foster innovation, trade, security, and jobs. NIST continues to evolve to higher levels of performance as of result of your valuable feedback.</p> <p>Strategic Planning<br> I share your enthusiasm for the NIST 2010 Strategic Plan and associated management and outreach efforts. I expect that the revised NIST 2010 Strategic Plan and heightened emphasis on NIST outreach efforts will continue to move us toward being a more focused and responsive organization. You made a number of important recommendations to help improve our strategic planning efforts, and we will respond to each as detailed below.</p> <p>Strategic Focus Areas<br> You ask that we share with you the specific funding levels associated with each SFA and how much of that funding is dedicated to new projects started in response to the plan relative to pre-existing research programs. As I noted in my presentation on NIST 2010 implementation, at the outset of each fiscal year the NIST Director reviews OU Operating Plans for alignment to NIST 2010 and other purposes. We will be entering the next review cycle this fall, and look forward to sharing more details about the SFA and other funding trends at the December VCAT meeting. .<br><br>Performance Metrics<br> You ask that we include improved metrics, both short- and long- term that are consistent with the Baldrige framework and aid in performance evaluation and transparency. Currently we are working on the next generation of the NIST Balanced Scorecard and plan to include implementation metrics of the type you suggest. Our Senior Management Board is scheduled to review these and other aspects of our revised Scorecard later this summer, and we anticipate discussing our overall approach to the Scorecard with you during the September meeting in Boulder.</p> <p>You also ask that we consider, as a performance measure for implementation of NIST 2010, an evaluation of progress in meeting target investment levels for each objective (including other agency funding). As discussed above, we evaluate internal investment decisions on an annual basis and will present the net results on our OU-level spending data in December. In addition, we use the NIST 2010 Strategic Plan to guide our requests for new appropriations through the annual budget cycle. To date, we have not set specific total investment targets for each component of the Strategic Plan, in large measure because adding this type of information would make our plan subject to the considerably more formal and restricted processes required to manage the federal budget. Within the context of these restrictions, we will seek to improve our ability to specify and convey future investment scenarios associated with our next generation strategic plan (which we have referred to as "version 2").</p> <p>Other Agency Funding<br> You have asked that we develop a strategy for obtaining and managing other agency funding, particularly in such areas as the Homeland Security and Biosystems SFAs. To date, NIST has managed OA funding and programmatic relationships at the OU level, with general NIST criteria used as boundaries for acceptable levels and types of OA support. We will present these criteria and related OA funding trends to you during the September meeting, and will continue our customary practice of providing OA funding data in our total funding portfolio for the current and most recent fiscal year</p> <p>Collaborations/Customers<br> You made a number of recommendations to improve NIST external collaborations. As we have discussed, NIST views external partnerships as a key implementation channel f
