Would it be possible for you to explain how the proposed approach to capture information requirements fit with other components of the Information Management Framework (in particular, the Foundation Data Model and the Reference Data Library…)?
Hi Catherine, Yes, the Information Management Framework is being created to allow organisations to manage their, and other’s, data so that it is fit for its intended purpose (to support decisions). However, it can’t do the job of knowing what an organisation’s information requirements are. The activity modelling approach allows organisations to work out what their information requirements are in a way that can map directly to the parts of the IMF. The Activity modelling work to identify the information required to support decisions is the first part of a 4-step process to ensure that the data created and managed is consistent with the FDM, RDL and the interfaces for integrated exchanges of data that the IMF provides.
