""Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy told employees in an email Tuesday that the department is launching a consolidation initiative, dubbed 1DoT, to "streamline our processes, consolidate administrative functions and modernize our infrastructure to better serve the American public.""
""DoT currently runs more than 425 information systems, many with overlapping roles. There are 45 systems at the end of their lifespan across seven data centers running on more than 4,200 servers. DoT operates 10-14 grants systems, 4-5 registration systems, and 3-14 inspections systems," the email said."
"The effort follows similar initiatives at other federal agencies. As of June, the Treasury Department was planning a reorganization, consolidating administrative, shared functions and leaving mission-specific ones in Treasury bureaus. The Interior Department began to consolidate its administrative functions - including communications, finance and contracting, in addition to IT and HR - out of department components like the Fish and Wildlife Service and into its headquarters in the spring."
The Department of Transportation is launching a consolidation initiative named 1DoT to streamline processes, consolidate administrative functions and modernize infrastructure to serve the public. The department operates more than 425 information systems across seven data centers, with 45 systems at the end of their lifespan and over 4,200 servers. Multiple overlapping systems include 10-14 grants systems, 4-5 registration systems, and 3-14 inspections systems. 1DoT plans to sunset legacy systems and onboard advanced technologies aimed at greater efficiency and cost savings. The initiative parallels Treasury and Interior consolidation efforts, and potential layoffs have not been confirmed.
