Public Forum for the FEA Reference Model Maintenance Process (30XW)
Purpose (30XX)
This Public Forum is for public comments, discussion, and proposed revisions to the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) Reference Models. The FEA Reference Model Maintenance Process was jointly developed by the CIO Council’s Architecture and Infrastructure Committee (AIC) Governance Subcommittee and FEA Program Management Office (FEA PMO). (30XK)
Background (30XY)
The FEA Reference Models provide a "common language" as the Federal government evolves to a more citizen-centered, customer-focused government. The Maintenance Process for the FEA Reference Models will ensure the needed balance for both stability and evolution of the models in managing mission-related information assets associated with the transformation to a more citizen-centered government. For more information on the FEA Reference Model maintenance process, please refer to the Federal Enterprise Architecture Maintenance Process document. (30XM)

- The submitter’s contact information, Summary information about the revision, and Additional information specific to the FEA Reference Model being revised. (30XO)
- Please send the completed form to fea@omb.eop.gov for evaluation. The submitter will be contacted to acknowledge receipt of the form and for follow-up on any outstanding questions or issues with the submission. Proposed revisions to the FEA Reference Models must be received by January 30, 2006 for evaluation so the final updated reference models can be ready in time to inform agencies’ FY08 capital planning processes. (30XP)
- Over the coming weeks, the FEA PMO will be working with the CIO Council’s AIC Governance Subcommittee to form the Assessment Team for Reference Model Revisions (ATRMR) as detailed in the FEA Reference Model maintenance process. This team will provide feedback and an initial assessment on the submissions to the AIC and OMB. (30XQ)
