Chief Information Officers Council
The Chief Information Officers Council (CIOC) is the principal interagency forum for improving agency practices related to the design, acquisition, development, modernization, use, sharing, and performance of federal information resources. Established by Executive Order 13011 in 1996 and codified in the E-Government Act of 2002 (44 U.S.C. 3603), the Council is comprised of the Chief Information Officers and Deputy CIOs of executive branch agencies, the Federal CIO at OMB (who serves as Chair), the Federal Chief Information Security Officer, and the Administrator for Electronic Government. The CIOC develops recommendations for OMB IT policy, identifies opportunities to improve federal IT performance, coordinates multi-agency IT initiatives such as cybersecurity and cloud adoption, supports federal IT workforce development, and disseminates effective IT management practices across the federal government. The Council publishes guidance, playbooks, and resources through cio.gov and councils.gov.
More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.
API Evangelist profiles Chief Information Officers Council the way a machine reads it — 21 machine-readable artifacts across 1 API, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Chief Information Officers Council scores 22.0/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 7/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Chief Information Officers Council
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Chief Information Officers Council. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 1
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.
Chief Information Officers Council Resources
The CIOC publishes its charter, leadership roster, committee output, playbooks (e.g., Cloud Smart, Modular Contracting, IT Modernization), and federal IT guidance through cio.go...
Pricing Plans 1
Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.
Published pricing tiers and plan structures.
Rate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.
FinOps 1
Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.
Cost, billing, and metering signals for API financial operations.
