2. II Knowledge Fair Clinger - Cohen Act (CCA) Overall Conference Goal: The goal of the knowledge fair is to build upon the results and findings of the CCA Knowledge Fair I held in October 2003 and the CCA Assessment Report of December 2004, in order to improve the CCA value proposition within the DoD IT investment processes. The knowledge fair also provides a forum for members of the CIO, NDU/DAU, Functional, and acquisition management communities to exchange ideas on improving the implementation of CCA. Approach: The knowledge fair is planned as a small and highly interactive educational experience. Panel discussions are designed to elicit audience involvement. The topics selected reflect an overall focus on improving the CCA value proposition. This is being accomplished through alignment with other DoD transformation initiatives and learning from and taking into account the views of diverse stakeholders in the DoD IT investment processes. Improving the value also implies transformation within the CIO offices at all levels within DoD. The recently completed CCA assessment report identifies business process redesign and outcome-based performance measures as two misunderstood front-end CCA elements --- these areas will be given particular attention during the day.
