ACT/IAC Document Vetting Process

• 1) IAC to internally review documents, vet them, resolve issues, and determine corrections. Upon IAC completion, the document is iteratively submitted to the DAS Co-Chairs for review and approval. Minutes of IAC meetings will be posted to the IAC website. Document is finalized by IAC leadership and Government referees and owned by IAC

• 2) The DAS co-chairs will determine when IAC document is ready for DAS reference

• 3) When documents enter the DAS Review phase, the DAS will post its own version of document, with references cited to the IAC version, to the DAS’s own private collaboration site and solicit comments from the DAS participants as the new document enters the DAS review phase.

• 4) Following DAS vetting and review of any document, the refined draft is submitted on the DAS public wiki for public comment, while still the authority of the DAS.

www.actgov.org

Document Vetting Process

• 5) The IAC supports oversight of the process by tracking the comments, the topic, whether concurrence or rejection was adjudicated, provide remarks, and update the document. All of this is similar to the process that the DAS has used in the past to produce its deliverables.

• 6) Following DAS vetting and review of any document, the refined draft is submitted on the DAS public wiki for public comment, while still the authority of the DAS

• 7) Finalized draft of DAS owned document is submitted to the CIO Council for approval

IAC EA SIG DA WG Expectations

• Translate “DRM Implementation Guide” from Desire to Reality– DRM Implementation Guide Outline to commence now– Similar approach as with SOA Implementation Guide– Leverage pertinent draft work from 2007 EA SIG DA Committee work– IAC Template for White Papers to be used to produce Guide from IAC– DRM and DRM Mgmt Strategy to Be Chief References– Questionaire to Be Drafted and Approved by DAS Co-Chairs prior to any

Agency POC interviews• Empirical findings from Interviews & follow-up report will likely require

contract work to comply with FACA– “DRM Implementation Guide: What Works and Why?”

• DAS Co-Chairs’ priorities for IAC Requests for Assistance to be communicated to IAC through DAS Co-Chairs

– IAC EA SIG DA WG Chair will assist as needed to formulate Requests• Effort anticipated to be referenced by Requests for Support from the

Transition Team in 2008
