PSC feels a new memo with explicit policy direction would assure compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The June memo pauses an entity-level internal control reviews of the acquisition function in accordance with OMB Circular A-123 to allow agencies to focus on reorganization planning. PSC feels these assessments provide invaluable insight ensuring agency efficiency, effectiveness and accountability and should remain essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, PSC notes that the suspension of quarterly progress reports via <a href=\"http:\/\/performance.gov\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Link: http:\/\/performance.gov\">performance.gov<\/a>includes reporting on priority goals aligning with current administration priorities, and should be maintained as sources of critical information on addressing administration, congressional and industry interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Complete text of the Professional Services Council\u2019s letter to OMB Director Mick Mulvaney can <a class=\"\"
