Throughout recent years, the federal government has issued several policy directives to accelerate the use of new technologies for agencies stimulate innovation and transformation. These guidelines include the Ministry of Defence Strategy mobile device, digital government strategy, the federal law Telework and the Federal Cloud Computing Strategy. As another year draws to a close, we should think about what we've accomplished and ask ourselves - what is the next
Each directive sets out several goals, deadlines for the steps or lines agencies Managers should follow ?. For example, one of the objectives of the Digital Government Strategy to ensure that the government adjusts to the new digital world, seize opportunities to procure and mange devices, applications and data intelligently, safe and affordable. The Telework Enhancement Act sought to bring together the leadership of the head of the executive agency to establish a policy for employees eligible to telework within six months of its release 2010. And, according to the Bureau of Societies (PMS) 2012 Telework Report personnel management, small and large agencies have reported challenges with the strength and limitations of management technology, two years later.
While many organizations are still in the early stages of implementing telework, 2013 Survey of Federal Employees OPM has shown signs of progress. The survey found that the majority of feds were satisfied with their agency telework program - up three percent from 2012. In addition, more than half of the nearly 380,000 federal interviewed were informed that they are eligible telecommuting with 42 percent do so at least once or unscheduled basis in the short term. We are delighted to see these organizations evolve their telework programs, as we firmly believe that the work is something you do, not a place where you go. And Citrix virtual and mobile solutions have played an important role in organizations to achieve innovative strategies and cost effective teleworking.
In addition to progress in telework, we saw several other success stories from these innovative guidelines that demonstrate that we are making real progress. One such example is (GSA) relocation of the General Services Administration to a flexible work environment - reduce its real estate, the replacement of desktop assignments with open work areas, and encourage employees to work at home more days a week. And, as Citrix is working with government agencies to conduct their flex spatial transformations, we have also turned our own office space to realize the vast benefits of these environments offer. Recently, our Fort Lauderdale office conducted a re-design flexible workspace using solutions such as Citrix XenDesktop - deliver virtual applications and desktops with self-service access to users and simplified management for IT. This transformation has equated to about $ 1.8 million in real estate costs savings for Citrix.
great progress Moreover, the Navy has shown moving to virtualization. This summer, Terry Halvorsen, chief information officer, Navy, issued two memos stating that all agencies of the Navy and Marine Corps must run operating systems and applications in a virtual environment 2017 Citrix plays a vital supporting role to provide organizations with the tools they need as they work to virtualize their infrastructure, implement telework programs, and enable mobility. As a leader in virtualization and mobility solutions, Citrix is at the forefront of improving the status of employment agencies to meet the guidelines of innovation.
Last year, we announced Citrix XenMobile Enterprise Edition, this new solution is part of our business platform mobility management which is the first holistic approach to mobility management including management mobile devices, the mobile application management, and management of mobile data. In addition, the solution uses powerful analytical tools that allow administrators to check the devices, applications, and network access - the security of all data, regardless of device or location. further support mobility efforts specifically for the defense sector, we are proud to announce that Citrix Receiver can now support Android Common Access Card (CAC) and verification of personal identity (PIV) cards. This first-to-market solution allows users to access applications and work stations virtualized safely in an environment
Although we have seen steps -. And some jumps - to the integration of innovative technologies in government agencies, there are tasks that remain to be done, the steps to meet, and above all, there is still much work to do. Citrix is proud to work with federal agencies to implement the technologies they need to make mobility, virtualization and cloud computing obtained and affordable.
Looking back to 2013 and 2014, it is clear federal agencies have made huge efforts to modernize their technology systems, but we still have work to do to advance the mobile and digital diaries public sector IT. We look forward to working with our public sector partners, as well as our skilled and experienced experts to help agencies continue the path towards the implementation of mobile and virtual technologies -. Improve service delivery safely and cheaply
