Vision for NIEM
• NIEM will be the Standard, by Choice, for Government Information Exchange
• Scope is Cross-Government– Local / State / Tribal / Federal– Build from initial partnership led by DOJ, DHS, and Global Justice – Expand to include Intelligence Community and then other aspects of Government
• Business Driven Focus on Data Layer Inter-Operability– Harmonize most commonly used data elements – Organized by mission and interoperation requirements (domains and communities of interest - COIs)– Clear inter-operation, not replacement, with existing standards
• Widespread Reuse of Information Exchanges to Reduce Cost and Improve Inter-Operation
– Practitioner starting point is reuse of existing Information Exchanges– Basis for vendors to build support for Information Exchange into products
• Championing Innovation in Information Exchange– NIEM anticipates major evolution in its lifecycle– Change will be incremental, vetted, and evolutionary– Change will be accompanied by a clear roadmap and value proposition
4
Goals & Objectives for NIEM (CY 2006)
• Executive Sponsorship and Funding– Deepen commitment and put in place accompanying structures– Extend Federal participation through the ODNI Information Sharing Council (ISC)– Secure enhanced multi-year funding commitment from Federal Stakeholders
• Enhance Current Organizational, Program, and Governance– Refine, get buy-in, and launch current structures – Put in place permanent management team
• Deliver NIEM into production via community process in 2006– Executive communication including roadmap, value proposition, concept of operations– v1.0 Product, including documentation, governance, and formal communications– Migration strategy (jointly with Global Justice) for existing GJXDM Users
• Rollout Practitioner Outreach and Support (4Q CY2006)– Leveraging partner’s outreach and communication channels

• Other Initiatives –large number uncoordinated initiatives and standards
• GJXDM – how do we migrate existing users, education
• TA & Training – need a plan & resources
