This checklist identifies the major steps of the process followed to request approval to implement e-signatures as documented in the Agency's e-signatures policy (32-110) and procedural directive (32-110-01). Some steps include links to work products from our project or to significant resources. Future initiatives seeking approval to implement e-signatures can use this checklist and examples as aids in their efforts. The roadmap and examples may also be helpful.

This site contains additional examples, background materials, and resource links. Consider taking some time to become familiar with the resources on this site before you initiate a similar e-signature project. Also please consider corresponding with the team that developed this site. We may be of some assistance and we would appreciate your participation in improving these wiki pages with lessons learned from your efforts.
