StratML 2005-12-21 Data Strategy Markup Language (StratML) is an XML vocabulary and schema (XSD) for strategic plans, such as those U.S. federal agencies are required to compile and maintain under the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA). Rendering strategic plans in valid XML instance documents on the Web will enable linkage of agency records to goals and objectives. It will also enable cross-agency analyses and discovery of information based upon goal-seeking behavior. It may be appropriate to implement StratML first in agency IRM strategic plans, which are a central focus of OMB's guidance on implementation of subsection 207(d) of the eGov Act. http://www.cio.gov/documents/Access_Search_Policy_12-16-2005.pdf For addional information, see http://www.xml.gov/draft/AIIMProjectProposalXSDforStrategicPlans.htm See also http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a11/current_year/s210.pdf and http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a11/current_year/s200.pdf Strategic Management Service Interface and Integration Interoperability Data Format / Classification eXtensible Markup Language (XML) Component Framework Data Management Reporting and Analysis XML for Analysis StratML XML Community of Practice http://xml.gov Owen D Ambur Owen_Ambur@ios.doi.gov
