Requests for Proposal The leading dates are the dates each RFP was originally issued... not the date of any resulting specification. 20110624: The UML Profile for NIEM RFP was issued in the Salt Lake City TC meeting in June 2011 as OMG Document gov/2011-06-04 by the Domain Technology Committee. Click here for the project page. The objective of this RFP is to provide a standard for modeling National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) artifacts (Model Package Documents - MPDs) with UML. MPDs include numbered releases, domain updates, and IEPDs (Please see Appendix A for the glossary of terms). This RFP solicits proposals for the following which together shall comprise “NIEM-UML”: - UML profiles for modeling NIEM MPDs; a logical profile that will enable the development of Platform Independent Models for NIEM content, and a second profile that provides the parameters required to transform the logical model to NIEM conformant XML schema and MPD specifications (the Platform Specific Model)
- A transformation from UML models that conform to the NIEM profiles (described above) to NIEM-conformant MPD artifacts
- Optionally, a transformation from a NIEM-conformant XML schema set (as defined by the NIEM NDR) to a UML model that conforms to the profile(s)
- A UML representation of the NIEM controlled vocabularies (reference namespaces) from which MPDs are constructed. This UML representation must conform to the profiles mentioned in the first bullet point.
- Status:
- Letters of Intent to submit are being received until 21-August-2011
- The Voting List is Open for registration until 01-January-2012
20091211: The Records Management Services Version 2 RFP was issued in the Long Beach TC meeting in December 2009 as OMG Document gov/2009-12-05 by the Domain Technology Committee. Click here for the project page. The OMG adopted the Records Management Services specification (Beta-1: https://www.omg.org/spec/RMS/1.0/Beta1/) in June 2009. Provision for specifying context dependent Attribute Profiles was established, but specific instances were not. Additionally, no fine grained compliance points were defined. Compliant implementations are constrained to implement the specification in toto. This RFP solicits proposals for the following: -
The provision of one or more Attribute Profiles minimally supporting DoD 5015.02 compliant Records Management Environments. -
The addition of compliance points to subset service operations and profile attribution as it is affected by the subsetting. This will allow RMS to be provisioned on a scale that suits the business needs of diverse organizations. - Status:
- The RFP LOI deadline has expired; however, the GovDTF anticipates re-opening it in its Minneapolis MN Plenary, 20100610.
- The Voting List is OPEN and accepting membership. It will close 20100906.
20090626: The Model for Performance-Driven Government (MPG) formerly titled the Metamodel for Federal Segment Architecture RFP (OMG Document gov/2009-06-04) was Issued by the Domain Technology Committee during its Plenary at OMG's San José Costa Rica Technical Committee Meeting, 26-June-2009. Building on the FEA Practice Guidance, the US Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has created the Federal Segment Architecture Methodology (FSAM) for use by Executive Branch agencies as a means of achieving more complete and consistent segment architecture products; expediting development of segment architectures; and enabling greater reuse of segment architectures. To further these goals, the OMB has defined the Enterprise Architecture Segment Report (EASR) as the standard format through which agencies report on their performance and progress developing segment architectures. Fundamental to both the FSAM and EASR is the Metamodel for Federal Segment Architecture (MFSA). The OMB and OMG have created a roadmap for working collaboratively to create this metamodel as an industry standard, enabling the development of commercial modeling tools and repositories capable of managing, querying, retrieving, and reporting segment architecture information. It is expected that such tools will also provide comprehensive enterprise architecture modeling and analysis capabilities for agencies that build segment architecture models represented using the MFSA.  20060630: The Records Management Services RFP (OMG Document gov/2006-06-11) was Issued by the Domain Technology Committee during its Plenary at OMG's Boston Technical Committee Meeting, 30-June-2006. (Originally named "MDA Models for Electronic Records Management Services", it is now referred to simply as "Records Management Services") This RFP is based on the requirements defined by a Records Management Services Component Interagency Project Team (RMSC IPT). Information on this team and its work products is available on the project page, http://gov.omg.org/gov-rfp-rms.htm. The OMG status page (accessible to OMG members only) can be found here.  20061208: The "Federal Transition Framework" RFP (OMG Document gov/2006-12-02) was issued by the Domain Technology Committee during its Plenary at OMG's Washington DC Technical Committee Meeting, 8-December-2006. Championed by the US President's Office of Management and Budget (OMB), this RFP is a follow on to the Federal Transition Framework WhitePaper. In the Related Document section of the project page there is additional information on the documents and background on which this RFP is based. - Status: The Formal Version 1.0 of the specification was approved by the Board of Directors in its Santa Clara CA Meeting, 9-December-2008.

 Requests for Information 20070629: The Skills Management RFI was issued by the Domain Technology Committee during its plenary in Brussels, 29-June-2007 The GovDTF Roadmap was updated in Ottawa with work items suggested by response analysis. A Skills Management RFP was begun. (See http://gov.omg.org/gov-rfp-skills.htm)  Whitepapers 20110620: "Transforming Government IT With Architecture: Achieving Agility & Modularity" On December 9, 2010 Vivek Kundra, CIO of the US Federal government, published the "25-Point Plan (the Plan) for Information Technology Management Reform." (http://cio.gov/documents/25-Point-Implementation-Plan-to-Reform-Federal%20IT.pdf } On the same day, William Lynn, Deputy Secretary of the Department of Defense, signed out the following report to the Armed Services Committee entitled "A New Approach (the New Approach) for Delivering Information Technology Capabilities in the Department of Defense." (http://www.afei.org/WorkingGroups/section804tf/Documents/OSD_Sec_804_Report.pdf ) This whitepaper out lines how the architectural principles and disciplines can help achieve government's goals of Agility and Modularity in Government IT Acquisitions. 20090320: "OMG Value Proposition for Government Organizations" The Object Management Group's (OMG) Government Domain Task Force (GovDTF) has been collaborating with government agencies around the world to produce specifications supporting governmental missions and goals designed to serve their citizens. This whitepaper explores the value added to government agencies through the use of OMG’s Community Consensus Process and its Model Driven Architecture (MDA) approach to improving the efficiency and effectiveness of information technology capabilities and information sharing across all levels of government: national, regional, and local. 20060926: The "Federal Transition Framework Metamodel" Whitepaper was issued by the Task Force during its plenary in Anaheim, 26-September-2006. This paper presents an introduction of the Federal Transition Framework to the OMG community, and conversely introduces the OMG to government agencies involved in the Office of Management and Budget's FTF. The paper documents a process to coordinate the separate life-cycle and governance processes of the two organizations.  |
