Aggressive Action Being Taken to Address Technology Program Failures WASHINGTON -- The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) announced today that it is implementing a new IT management approach department-wide. Effective immediately, all new IT programs and projects at VA must be implemented using the Project Management Accountability System (PMAS). PMAS is an incremental development approach that ensures frequent delivery of new functionality to customers, coupled with a rigorous management approach that halts programs that fail to meet delivery milestones. This new system will ensure early identification and correction of failing IT programs.
