Modernizing Government Technology Act of 2017 or the MGT Act (Sec. 3) This bill authorizes each of specified agencies for which there are Chief Financial Officers to establish an information technology system modernization and working capital fund to: improve, retire, or replace existing information technology systems to enhance cybersecurity and to improve efficiency and effectiveness; transition legacy information technology systems to cloud computing and other innovative platforms and technologies; assist and support efforts to provide adequate, risk-based, and cost-effective information technology capabilities that address evolving threats to information security; and reimburse amounts transferred to the agency from the Technology Modernization Fund (established under this bill), with the approval of such agency's Chief Information Officer. Each agency shall prioritize amounts within such fund to be used initially for approved cost savings activities. (Sec. 4) The bill establishes a Technology Modernization Fund for technology related activities, to improve information technology, and to enhance cybersecurity across the federal government. The fund shall be administered by the Commissioner of the Technology Transformation Service of the General Services Administration in accordance with guidance issued by the Office of Management and Budget. The Commissioner shall: transfer amounts from the fund to an agency to improve, retire, or replace existing federal information technology systems to enhance cybersecurity and improve efficiency and effectiveness; use amounts in the fund for the development, operation, and procurement of information technology products, services, and acquisition vehicles to improve efficiency and cybersecurity; and use amounts in the fund to provide services or work performed in support of such activities. The bill establishes a Technology Modernization Board to: (1) evaluate proposals submitted by agencies for funding authorized under the fund; (2) make recommendations to the Commissioner to assist agencies in the further development and refinement of select modernization proposals; (3) monitor progress and performance in executing approved projects and, if necessary, recommend the suspension or termination of funding; and (4) monitor fund operating costs. The Commissioner shall support board activities and provide technical support to, and oversight of, agencies that receive transfers from the fund.

SSLC advocates legislation to accelerate implementation of shared services business models in the Federal Government to streamline and consolidate duplicative administrative functions and improve government efficiency and effectiveness. Most of our activity has been educational to inform Members and staff about the value proposition and challenges in implementing shared services based on actual experience of leaders in the private sector and other government entities. SSLC advocated specific language be included in the Modernizing Government Technology Act of 2017, H.R. 2227, to authorize modernization investments for technologies serving multiple government agencies. SSLC recommended private sector experts for invitations to participate in the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee's 2017 Shared Services Roundtable, and has offered ideas and text for potential legislation to accelerate the government's implementation of shared services.
