Stage 4 - Graduation
At Stage 4 of the ET.gov process, components have been demonstrated by
communities of practice (CoPs) to be technically viable and to have
practical utility.
Emerging information technologies "graduate" to become relatively
mature information technology (IT) components and, thus, candidates for
consideration by the CIO Council's (COIC) Services Subcommittee for
inclusion in CORE.gov and/or the
Federal Transition Framework (FTF) Catalog
for governmentwide usage. Individual government agencies who have
the most compelling business needs and have participated in the CoPs
considering each component will be prime candidates to become early
adopters.
Components that do not fit into categories already recognized in the
Service Component Reference Model (SRM) and technical specifications
not cataloged in the Technical Reference Model (TRM) will be referred
to the CIOC's Governance Subcommittee for consideration in the process
for changes to the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) models.**
See also the form
previously used for proposing revisions to the FEA and the description
of that process, which references the ET.gov process on page 14 with
respect to maintenance of the TRM in particular. The deadline for
proposed changes for consideration during the FY 2011 budget cycle closed on
January 31, 2009. Folks with .gov or .mil E-mail addresses may
obtain access to MAX
and enter proposed changes directly into a wiki rendition of the models.
We do not have the resources to automate this stage yet but components
demonstrating the required degree of technical maturity and practical
utility are listed below:
* Incorporated into the TRM.
**Note that relatively few of the W3C
recommendations and OASIS standards,
for
example,
have been incorporated into the TRM.
