About the SGMAP

The SGMAP is the agency of the government of France that is responsible for
State Modernisation. The SGMAP organisation was set up in response to the new
roadmap for government modernisation. It was designed in such a manner as to
serve three ambitious objectives: contributing to maintaining the French social
model, restoring public finances and making the economy competitive. 


The SGMAP brings together all the departments responsible for the modernisation
policy, which were previously dispersed, and introduces a new consistency to
government modernisation efforts.

For this purpose, the SGMAP brings together:



--  the Interministerial Directorate for Government Modernisation, formerly
    the Directorate General for State Modernisation (DIMAP); 
--  the Interministerial Directorate for Information and Communications
    Systems (DISIC); 
--  the task force responsible for making public data accessible (Etalab).
