Good Day,
I tried to send this message to you but each
time it was bounced back. Hopefully, this one will get to you.
I wish you the best in your performance
management endeavors. If you ever want to bounce things off me, I would
be happy to help.
At this point, I do not know what will
happen to the PM CoP website. GSA, which hosts the site, has no plans to shut
down the site. Jay Alden suggested keeping it alive as a wiki site to
allow practitioners to post material to help others that follow. I think
it is a fine idea. I encourage you to provide links to articles and
documents that you found helpful.
Cheers,

Dear Bill and George,
As the co-chairman of the IT Performance Management
Community of Practice, it is my role to inform you that there is not enough
interest from the FEDs on the community’s mailing list to seek further
sponsorship by the CIO Council. There may be others in FED space who may
want to continue this body. But getting to them has been a long-standing
challenge due in part because there are no dedicated positions to this function
as there are for enterprise architecture, capital planning, and computer
operations.
It has been an honor to serve as co-chairman since its
inception in August 2000 as a subcommittee under the Capital Planning
Committee.
Below is a list of the community’s accomplishments
during this period:
- Trained 80 FEDs on developing
performance measures for the exhibit 300s
- Conducted two proof-of-concept
pilots of measurement methodologies (Council provided funding, GSA did the
contracting) for two major IT Initiatives at the USDA and VA
- Published two case studies on
the pilots (see cio.gov)
- Published “Lessons
Learned on IT Performance Measurement” (see cio.gov)
- Conducted and shared knowledge
at more than 50 meetings
- Held joint sessions with the
Chief Architects Forum to explore integration of performance measurement
and enterprise architecture
- Served as process owner for the
Performance Reference Model as part of the consolidated reference model
maintenance process
- Developed performance measures
for the Council’s 2007 – 2009 Strategic Plan
I have attached a logic model that shows how the PM CoP
created value. You may find it useful in your discussion with the
Council’s Executive Committee.
