Abstract: The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is the lead coordinator in the national effort to identify and prioritize the country’s critical infrastructure and key resources (CIKR). At DHS, this responsibility is managed by the Office of Infrastructure Protection (IP) in the National Protection and Programs Directorate (NPPD). The legal authority for IP comes from the Homeland Security Act of 2002 and Homeland Security Presidential Directive 7 (HSPD-7), Critical Infrastructure Identification, Prioritization, and Protection. IP actively collects and manages infrastructure data and provides tools to Federal, State, local, tribes and territories to enable them to share data and protect their own critical infrastructure. The C/ACAMS program offers State and local first responders, emergency managers, and other homeland security officials access to the Constellation/Automated Critical Asset Management System (C/ACAMS) tools for using CIKR asset data, prevention and protection information, and incident response and recovery plans to make their communities safer. Efficient and effective use of the C/ACAMS tools helps all State and local first responders and emergency managers nationwide reach their goal of making their communities safer. To ensure that interested stakeholders achieve this mission, C/ACAMS requests supporting information from users seeking to use its tool. The C/ACAMS Program Management Office (PMO) evaluates the Functional Survey to determine levels of customers’ satisfaction with the user experience with the C/ACAMS tool. The survey supports data-based decision-making because it evaluates quantitative and qualitative data to identify improvements and identify significant issues based on experienced customer assessments of key tool functions. Obtaining current fact-based actionable data about tool features allows the program to appropriate funds cost-effectively based on user need, saving costs while improving the tool.
