October 20 | 2021
FedRAMP recently released the updated Agency Authorization Playbook to better reflect how the initial agency authorization process has evolved. This document is a compilation of best practices, tips, and step-by-step guidance for agencies seeking to conduct initial FedRAMP Authorizations or reuse FedRAMP Authorized Cloud Service Offerings (CSOs).

Updates included information on the following:
- Leveraging the FedRAMP Marketplace
- Understanding the FedRAMP reuse process
- The FedRAMP Agency Liaison program
- The FedRAMP PMO’s package review process for Agency Authorizations
- Additional information on Collaborative Continuous Monitoring
