Managing Data As A National Asset 2008 “Build to Share” Federal Data Architecture Subcommittee
Agenda • Introduction • FEA DRM Overview • Three Pillar DRM Implementation Strategy • FEA DRM Governance Strategy • DRM Implementation Example • Summary
FEA Reference Models Source: FEA PMO - The FEA Reference Models http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/egov/a-2-EAModelsNEW2.html FEA Reference Models are interrelated and designed to facilitate inter-agency analysis of investments for collaboration.
Information Supply Chain Among the FEA Reference Models • Business Goals (PRM) • Business Strategies (BRM) • Business Intelligence (SRM & TRM) • Information (DRM) • Data (DRM) The DRM focuses on the business objectives (PRM) and aligns data needed for the business processes (BRM). The SRM and TRM are informed by the DRM. The purpose of the DRM is to facilitate information sharing across government.

FEA DRM Abstract Model(Guidance for Organizing Information About Agency Data)
Basic Data Sharing Concepts:Provision Services for Data • Types of Data Exchange Services: • Extract/Transform/Load • Publication • Entity/Relationship Extraction • Document Translation • Types of Data Access Services • Context Awareness • Structural Awareness • Transactional Services • Data Query • Content Search and Discovery • Retrieval, Subscription and Notification
Data Context: Figure out the Data that the Enterprise (aka Community of Interest) cares about. • Data Description: • Figure out the standards: • Standard Meanings • Standard Structures Data Sharing: Figure out the services required to share information The DRM Approach(Summary) • The DRM provides basic guidance on what to capture in each of these areas and how to capture it. (i.e., the Abstract Model) • Intentionally, the DRM does not delve into specific models or artifacts that the architects will create: • Organizations use different EA Frameworks. There are a lot of right ways. • The models/artifacts developed will depend on what’s needed • As we define best practices, we will consider more definitive guidance in the DRM • However, the objective is to provide actionable guidance to your programs: We should be building with data sharing in mind up front. - “Build to Share”
Implementing the DRM FEA DRM Three Pillar Data Strategy Framework
What the DRM Is Not • The DRM is not a government-wide data model, • Nor is it an all-encompassing set of XML schemas that describe the data of the government. • It is not meant to replace existing data structures within the agencies, rather to provide the means to compare data among agencies in order to exchange, re-use or integrate data.
The DRM Goal • As government transforms from being program-centric to citizen-centric, the demand for discoverable, accessible, and reliable information will naturally increase. Data must be managed as a stand-alone shareable asset to meet these demands.
Data Management Plays a Role • Key data management functions that come into play include: • Data governance and stewardship • Data Standardization • Metadata management • Data quality management • Master data management • Data security

Governance Strategy • Two Key Components of DRM Governance • Federal Data Architecture Subcommittee (DAS) • Inter-agency • Launched May 2006 • Communities of Interests (COI) • Discussed in Draft DRM Management Strategy • Examples include OMB LOBs, and E-Gov initiatives
Data Goals drive Gover-nance Data Strategy (Services) (Structure) FEA DRM Implementation Example E-Gov Initiative: Recreation One Stop
Business Goals drive Governance (Services) (Structure) About Recreation One Stop (Business & Data Goals) • One of the President’s E-Gov inter-agency Initiatives led by DOI & the most accessed government site by the public • Requirements: • Share data among multiple Federal, State, Local and Commercial partners • Share data across multiple business lines • Data standards must be easily extensible to accommodate new requirements • Data sharing standards must be translated to a database and XML
DOI Recreation Community of Interest (COI) USDA
Business Goals drive Gover-nance (Services) (Structure) E-Gov Initiative:Recreation One Stop(Challenge) Customers see too many sources for Federal recreation information.
Business Goals drive Gover-nance (Services) (Structure) E-Gov Initiative:Recreation One Stop(Governance) • COI is Federal Recreation providers • Recreation Executive Council • Members are deputy assistant secretary level (DOI, USDA, & DOD) • Provides strategic perspective • Provides adjudication • Recreation Managers Committee • Senior level Recreation managers • Sets priorities • Members include Smithsonian, DOT, and 16 other agencies • Various implementation groups • One group is responsible for the adoption of data standards • Another group stewards the data • Another group responsible for data implementation
Business Goals drive Governance (Services) (Structure) Major subject areas of data that need to be shared with other business areas of the enterprise. (Structure)

Summary • The FEA DRM is one of five inter-related reference models designed to facilitate inter-agency analysis and collaboration. • The FEA DRM consists of three basic concepts: Context, Description, and Information Sharing. • Three basic concepts of the draft FEA DRM Implementation Strategy consists of: Governance, Structure, and Services. • Agencies and COIs can implement the FEA DRM in many ways, but must follow the three pillar data strategy to be successful. • The Federal Data Architecture Subcommittee was established to provide agencies additional guidance on FEA DRM implementation.
