Leveraging ET.govfor Collaboration Owen Ambur, Project Manager CIO Council’s ET.gov Site/Process September 20, 2005
Topics • Conception • Authority • Leadership • Purpose • Status • Relationships • Demo
Conception • Co-Chairs of CIO Council’s Architecture & Infrastructure Committee (AIC) • John Gilligan, USAF CIO • Norm Lorenz, OMB CTO • Charged the ET Subcommittee to: • Develop a process whereby the emerging technology life-cycle can be better managed on a governmentwide basis • Norm said: • We can’t deal with all of the vendors coming at us with “intergalactic solutions”
Authority Chief Information Officers (CIO) Council Architecture and Infrastructure Committee (AIC) FY 2005 Tasks (FY 2005 Spend Plan) Task 6. Develop identification and validation processes for emerging technologies. Description/Justification - The Emerging Technology Subcommittee of the CIO Council’s Architecture and Infrastructure Committee is charged with examining crosscutting emerging technology components and developing recommendations for their use in the Government. This task will focus on defining a process that will allow the IT innovation lifecycle to be managed on a Government-wide basis that accelerates the discovery, validation, and maturation of components that improve performance and the delivery of services to citizens. A relationship between the overall proposed process and CORE.gov is envisioned, along with the ability to accept submissions from the vendor/integrator community. While CORE.gov will focus on submissions from the Government community, there is value in having a process through which a component would “graduate” to CORE.gov once a sufficient level of subscription and commitment to the component exists within the Government community. Lead Staff –John McManus, Susan Turnbull, and Owen Ambur
Current Leadership • CIOC AIC Co-Chairs • Kim Nelson, CIO, EPA • Reynolds Cahoon, CIO, NARA • ET Subcommittee Co-Chairs • John McManus, DCIO & CTO, NASA • Susan Turnbull, GSA
Purpose • To enable: • Identification & Discovery of ET Components • By anyone • Regardless of whether component exists yet or not • Formation, Identification & Discovery of CoPs • By .gov folks with “business” expertise • In partnership with .com, .edu & .org technical experts • Potential Direction of Additional Resources • By CIOC leaders • Based upon need, interest & priorities • Demonstration of Practical Viability & Utility • By ET CoPs • Through proofs-of-concept, pilots, etc. • Delivery of Proven Components for Consideration • By Components Subcommittee &/or • Governance Subcommittee
Status • Demo’ed March 30, 2005, at GovCon05 • First component registered April 14 • Strategy Markup Language (StratML) • About 20 registered as of August • PDF by Adobe • X-UDED by Urban Institute/NASACT • Three ET CoPs at Stage 2 • XML NDRG, X-UDED & NIST Tools
Relationships • ET CoPs can use any collaborative tools they choose, such as: • CORE.gov • http://gsa.gov/collaborate • Components “graduating” from Stage 4 become candidates for: • Inclusion in CORE.gov by Components Subcommittee, or • Consideration by the Governance Subcommittee • Channel for input into CIOC’s FEA model maintenance process for SRM & TRM: • http://et.gov/pagehelp.aspx#servicetype • http://et.gov/pagehelp.aspx#technicalstandard
