Vivek Kundra has a vision for the Federal government relating to IT. He plans to make government information readily available to the nation’s citizens as part of the Federal Government Transparency policy. This includes data that is not private or restricted for national security purposes. He also works to make sure the government does not overspend on IT and that technology employed makes different government agencies run expeditiously. His prior experience as Chief Technology Officer for the District of Columbia poised Vivek Kundra well for his current role.

He considers cloud-based services an attractive alternative. Cloud-based services can quickly create and supply development platforms. They are also ideal for sharing information, including sharing photographs and videos. He believes the Federal government needs an streamlined platform such as this, and that the Federal government should be able to host space in Cyberspace. This is so U.S citizens can engage in talks with one another for solutions to social problems.

From cloud computing possibilities to holding government contractors responsible for the services they provide, Vivek Kundra works to make informed use of the IT budget he controls. He knows that making the correct IT choices that encompass new mediums and technological advances lend to efficient operations in government agencies. His goal is an IT infrastructure that operates within budget parameters, while delivering exceptional value to U. S. citizens.
