Transition Timeline

Understanding the Milestones

To facilitate the transition, there are key milestones that must be met, including submitting an organizational plan and chart, a human capital plan, a communications plan, and a comprehensive document control inventory. These are likely to change over time and additional deliverables will be drafted as the end of the fiscal year approaches and we enter into the first year of operation of the two new agencies.
