Background:

During an "Industry Day" of the President's Office of Management and Budget (OMB) on 13-July-2006, Dick Burk, OMB Chief Architect announced that the OMB and the Object Management Group's (OMG) Government Domain Task Force (GovDTF) have agreed to work together using OMG's community consensus process to define an industry consensus specification for the OMB's new Federal Transition Framework (FTF).

GovDTF formed a "Federal Transition Framework Metamodel Working Group" under its US Government Working Group (USWG) to address this work item. This work item will dove-tail with another work item on the USWG Roadmap, "A UML Profile for the Federal Enterprise Architecture" which was launched June 2006 during the GovDTF's meeting in Boston.

Initially a white paper was issued by the GovDTF in its meeting in Anaheim CA during the last week of September 2006, reflecting work done to-date and outlining the joint OMB/OMG FTF program. Following that white paper, the Federal Transition Framework Metamodel Working Group executed this RFP to provide a full OMG specification using the OMG's process for industry consensus.

Objectives:

To produce an industry consensus OMG MDA specification for the Federal Transition Framework in support of the President's Office of Management and Budget.
