Developing the framework Outputs will be a complex task. In keeping with the evolutionary principle, the Ministry of Education proposes to undertake the work in several stages. At any stage of the process, there will be a plan for the current stage, an outlook for the next stage, and a direction for future stages.
- Stage 1
- This is the problem definition stage. The plan is to:
- Stage 2
- This is the architectural design stage. The outlook is to:
- develop a logical design for ICT services and their interactions
- develop a set of complementary architectures for various parts of the sector
- define interoperability standards between the architecture components
- Stage 3
- This is the architecture realisation stage. The direction is to:
- deliver early wins to address the most important problems identified in Stage 1
- run proofs of concept to validate the main architectural decisions
- raise the sector’s ICT knowledge, capability and capacity
Developing the Architectural Framework will follow an Open Process?, which the Ministry of Education will facilitate:
- a cross-agency Working Party works under the direction of an Advisory Group
- it consults a wide range of sector Reference Groups and subject matter specialists
- its proposals go to a group of sector Decision Makers for ratification and adoption
