  1. Collaborative Expedition Workshop #49Leveraging Open Standards and Open Collaboration: Pioneering Mechanisms for Agility Across Open, Intergovernmental Communities March 14, 2006 National Institute of Standards and Technology, Administration Building, Lecture Room D, Gaithersburg, MD

  2. Welcome! • Opportunity to learn from individuals and policy-makers from all sectors • Practice intergovernmental collaboration to advance President's Management Agenda toward citizen-centric government • Accelerate multi-sector partnerships around IT capabilities to help government work better

  3. Introduction • Organize around common purpose, larger than any institution, to appreciate potentials and realities • Improve quality of dialogue and collaborative prototyping at intergovernmental crossroads • Participants, representing many forms of expertise, return to their settings with a larger perspective of the “whole”

  4. Introduction • Create conducive conditions for “breakthrough” innovations • Authoritative Communities of Interest/ Practice around Common Business Lines • Agile Framework for Building Intergovernmental Services – FEA Reference Models • Emergence of Open Standards, Open Collaborative Development, and Semantic Technology • “In design, we either hobble or support people’s natural ability to express forms of expertise.” Prof. David D. Woods

  5. Introduction and Key Findings • FY03 - Agile business components in innovative settings not easily discovered by e-government managers, resulting in lost or delayed opportunities for all parties. • FY04 - Growing Opportunity to apply Emerging Technologies (web services, grid computing, and semantic web) to tune up Innovation Pipeline with better linkages. • FY05 - Collaborative Work Environment expands effective networking across intergovernmental communities and complements monthly Collaborative Expedition Workshops; validated efficacy with DRM WG, Semantic Interoperability CoP, and GeoSpatial CoP

  6. Introduction • Sponsors of Collaborative Expedition Workshops and Collaborative Work Environment: (http://www.gsa.gov/collaborate) • GSA's Office of Intergovernmental Solutions. • Architecture and Infrastructure and Best Practices Committees of the Federal CIO Council. • National Coordination Office of the Subcommittee on Networking and Information Technology R & D (NITRD) and Social, Economic and Workforce Implications of IT and IT Workforce Development (SEW) Coordinating Group, NITRD

  7. Value: “Frontier Outpost" to open up quality conversations, augmented by information technology, to leverage collaborative capacity of united, but diverse sectors of society, seeking to discover, frame, and act on national potentials. • Results: Multiplicative Returns – in 10 months • 11 Expedition workshops, 1006 participants • 11 Communities of Practice, 805 participants • Data Reference Model WG: 30 agencies represented, 125 participants, DRM v2.0 issued by OMB in Dec. 2005 • Alignment: Networking among Communities of Practice • Building common understanding of fundamental concepts needed for communities representing diverse forms of expertise, to work together to leverage toward improved public service delivery at lower cost. • Planning upcoming workshops together

  8. Agenda Some Key Questions for FY06: • 1. How can the capacities of trust, agility, and accountability be achieved through federated stewardship among communities, still building common ground and understanding? • 2. What can we learn about agility and high-performance from 21st century, emergent communities serving "frontline" global health and safety purposes across boundaries? (i.e. tsunami wiki and flu wiki) • 3. How are flexible notation frameworks contributing to the demand for real-time, emergent “design” that supports visibility of the “whole picture” by balancing the expressive strengths of people and their information technology?

  9. How Can We Overcome Unstable Conventions of Meaning that Thwart Information Sharing?

  10. Self-organizing for Information Sharing in the first hours after the Tsunami – blog, wiki, flickr

  11. How can we Create Conducive Conditions to be Informed (not Overwhelmed) by the Combined Complexity of our Multiple Forms of Expertise?

  12. Vasa – 1628

  13. Agenda Some Key Questions for Today: • 1. How are we employing light-weight tools to augment capacities of communities to develop shared understanding around joint mission-related actions? • 2. What can we learn about agility and high-performance from 21st century, emergent communities serving "frontline" global health and safety purposes across boundaries? (i.e. tsunami wiki and flu wiki) • 3. How can we accelerate multi-sector partnerships around net-centric capabilities needed for government to work in the likely scenarios of the 21st century?

  14. Agenda • 7:00 a.m. Continental Breakfast - Employee Lounge •  10:30 a.m. NIST Interoperability Week Plenary Session - Green Auditorium • Olwen Huxley • Staff member, U.S. House of Representatives, Committee on Science; Subcommittee on Environment, Technology and Standards Karla Norsworthy • Vice President of Software Standards for IBM Corporation Jim Turner • Chief Minority Counsel, U.S. House of Representatives, Committee on Science • 12:00 Noon Networking Lunch

  15. Agenda • 1:00 p.m - Workshop Overview - Lecture Room - D Susan Turnbull GSA, Co-chair, Emerging Technology Subcommittee, and Co-chair, Social, Economic and Workforce Implications of IT and IT Workforce Development Coordinating Group, Subcommittee on Networking and Information Technology Research and Development Brand Niemann EPA, Chair, Semantic Interoperability Community of Practice, SICoPKnowledge Management WG Board Member • 1:15 p.m. - Introductions: What are your interests in light of the morning plenary and the workshop purpose? • 1:30 p.m. - Developer's Perspective: What "light-weight" tools are needed to support emergent governance across intergovernmental communities? How can these tools bootstrap open collaborative development with the agility needed by intergovernmental communities and their individual host institutions? • Michel Biezunski, Infoloom

  16. Agenda • 2:15 p.m. Small Group Discussion around Workshop Questions • 3:00 p.m. Break • 3:30 p.m. Student Developers' Perspectives: Geospatial 21 Program Wes Cruver, who co-founded KidzOn Line (KOL) when he was 11 (12 years ago), will give a demonstration of “Google Mash-up” for dynamic Emergency Response Plans for America’s 14,600 school districts and training centers of excellence for the Utility Industry. Geospatial 21is a program of the U. S. Department of Labor’s High Growth Job Training Initiative to increase public awareness of geospatial technologies and career opportunities. Through this grant, Kidz Online is employing online peer-to-peer learning and advanced webcasting capabilities to create geospatial educational programming while engaging young people in the net-centric tools and organizing of the 21st century. • 4:15 p.m. Discussion, Findings, and Next Steps • 4:45 p.m. Adjourn – workshop archives: http://www.gsa.gov/collaborate
