Improve dropdown menu for names of federal agencies in request form #337

Closed calerubensteingsa closed 1 month ago

calerubensteingsa commented 1 year ago

The list of federal agencies is correct but not complete. We should ensure it's universally correct (even if it means we're the source of truth) and make "Organization" (which is basically the agency subcomponent) dependent on the "Agency" selection.

Acceptance Criteria

Examples in #283

Other examples of agency lists: 10x form USAJobs search results Non-hierarchical list https://www.usa.gov/federal-agencies includes cabinet departments and sub-agencies; sub-agencies also appear on agency pages https://www.usa.gov/federal-agencies/u-s-department-of-homeland-security

Ideally we would have the federal agency and sub-agency drop-downs on a separate screen. All users would get the same "Organization name and mailing address" screen.

michelle-rago commented 1 year ago

The list of federal agencies needs to be improved. It includes generic terms like "Legislative branch."

Ideally, the list of agencies and sub-agencies would be generated based on the federal branch a user chooses.

I forgot this existed, which is a pretty good canonical (but aged) take https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/app_c.pdf

The USAGov folks maintain a list to populate https://www.usa.gov/agency-index. We briefly talked with them about reusing their data. We can pick that back up if there's interest.

@PaulKuykendall I added refinement on here if this is truly MVP we should start discussing this one, it related to the other ticket about making federal agency a table.

Katherine-Osos commented 1 month ago

@h-m-f-t I think this update might be covered in work we're doing for Org Model. Can you verify if this ticket is still needed?

I agree that we're solving this via the org model. Let's close this.
