Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would require the Small Business Administration (SBA), through its Chief Information Officer, to carry out the recommendations in a November 2024 Government Accountability Office report on risks in a newly deployed SBA computer system. Within 180 days after the bill becomes law, the SBA would have to send Congress's small business committees a plan for policies to manage its information technology modernization projects. The plan would cover risk identification and management, cyber risk planning, involving security experts in picking contractors, and using GAO guides for project schedules and cost estimates. The SBA would also have to brief the committees on the plan within 30 days of submitting it.
