NextGen Points of Contact

Points of Contact (POCs) serve as coordinators and developers of information and ensure agency leaders are appropriately engaged and communicating actively. POCs are critical to change management efforts and serve as influencers, advocates and connectors between the project and the agency. There is just one POC for each agency, and POCs were selected by agency heads.

See the list below of agencies and their designated POCs.
