“The White House has released the software code for its IT
Dashboard and TechStat toolkit. The initiative was coordinated
through Civic Commons, a code-sharing project incubated within Code
for America that helps governments share technology for the public
good, with support from OpenPlans. Civic Commons staff worked with
REI Systems, the contractor that originally built the IT Dashboard
for the United States Office of Management and Budget (OMB), to
prepare the code for release under an open source license. That
work included a security audit, documentation, and a licensing
review of the software’s components.”
