PMIX Was Developed by the State PMP Systems

Direction and Control Should Stay with the States

A Centralized Governance Body is Critical to Sustainability

The Continued Use of Open Standards Reduces Costs

Creates a Common Standard for All Developers

Unique Relationship Between PMP Data Sharing and the Alliance

•  National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) •  Global Reference Architecture (GRA) •  Information Exchange Package Documentation (IEPD) •  State to State Service Specification •  Hub to Hub Service Specification •  Execution Context Document

•  National Information Exchange Model •  Facilitates the creation of automated information exchanges using uniform

data delivery in a reusable format

•  Key Concepts •  Data Components •  Core Components •  Domains •  Conformance Rules •  Communities of Interest

•  IEPD – Information Exchange Package Documentation •  Defines the type of information that will be exchanged

Security •  When partners share information between systems, they

implement a “layer” of technology in between so that the systems are “insulated” from one another

Open Standards •  Information sharing follows accepted and well-established

open-industry standards rather than solutions and approaches proprietary to particular vendors

Governance •  Adopting a formal governance structure, partners strive for

a common approach and a common technology infrastructure

Software interoperability standards are open when they are developed in an open, transparent and collaborative process and are freely available and implementable within any business model. Open standards are typically made in global standards setting organizations which practice due process and rough consensus. To customers, on the other hand, open standards guarantee a high degree of flexibility and choice. Open standards prevent single vendor lock-in by facilitating interoperability.
