SUMMARY:Consultation on DOI Strategic Plan
DESCRIPTION:Dear Tribal Leader\,\n\nThe Government Performance and Results Modernization Act of 2010 (GPRAMA) requires federal agencies to publish a strategic plan one year after a presidential inauguration and to annually track the agencies performance in implementing the plan.\n\nThe Department of the Interior (the Department or Interior) is preparing to release its Fiscal Year (FY) 2026–2030 Strategic Plan in October 2025. The strategic plan outlines the Department’s strategic goals\, objectives\, and strategies for the next four years. The FY 2026-2030 Strategic Plan may look a bit different than in years past as it will be more streamlined in length and presented at a very high level. Federal agencies will be developing shorter strategic plans to support the Administration’s goal of providing clear and concise documents to the American public.\n\nInterior is committed to working in partnership with Tribal Nations to ensure the outcomes in the plan are meaningful and valuable to Tribal communities. To support this collaboration\, the Department will host a series of virtual consultation sessions from June 16-26\, 2025. These sessions will provide Tribal leaders the opportunity to offer input on the strategic goals and objectives\, and to recommend performance measures and areas of learning. Feedback received will help inform the final plan.\n\nWe invite you to participate in this important dialogue and help shape the Department’s path forward. A preview draft framework is available at https://www.bia.gov/service/tribalconsultations/department-interior-fy2026-2030-strategic-plan. Please register in advance of the consultation you plan on attending. After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. Please note\, consultations will be closed to the press and the public to protect confidential information that may be addressed. Sessions are focused for each specific community\, as noted below.\n\nThe consultations will be held virtually on:\n\n 	June 17 – East Coast Tribal\n3:00 pm – 4:30 pm Eastern\nhttps://www.zoomgov.com/meeting/register/8geQldpcRUmmVO24AI6kcA\n 	June 18 – ANC\n3:00 pm – 4:30 pm Eastern\nhttps://www.zoomgov.com/meeting/register/eNp2PDlySiapR0VTncAW9Q\n 	June 24 – West Coast Tribal\n3:00 pm – 4:30 pm Eastern\nhttps://www.zoomgov.com/meeting/register/AxkiZxq0Q3ORw2pJ_41HoQ\n 	June 26 – Native Hawaiian\n3:00 pm – 4:30 pm Eastern\nhttps://www.zoomgov.com/meeting/register/EZlEs_fQQ1qVj2I_65kaYg\n\nAfter the last scheduled consultation session\, the comment period will remain open for approximately 30 days. During the comment period\, consultation session participants are invited to submit comments using the following consultation@bia.gov.\n\nWhen submitting comments\, we are specifically seeking insights on the following:\n\n 	What changes would you like to see incorporated into the strategic goals\, strategic objectives\, or planned strategies in the FY 2026-2030 Strategic Plan?\n 	What performance measures would you like to see the Department track?\n 	Are there any questions you would like to see the Department pursue and learn about to become more efficient and effective?\n\nPlease reach out to the Office of Planning and Performance Management\, at doi_strategic_plan@ios.doi.gov with any questions.
