Is TMT right for your mission?

To assess whether your agency can benefit from adopting TMT, ask yourself these questions:

• How efficient are interaction and cooperation between agency support and operations?
• Are agency processes as efficient as they could be, and can you measure them?
• Are capabilities designed for individual teams or for the entire agency?
• Does the flow of information support fast-paced operational needs?
• Are personnel often waiting on approvals or unaware of their status?
• Do organizational decisions reside in personal inboxes rather than a central system?
