5.5: Strategic Map

Strategic Map

Other Information:

The Strategic Map is one of the most essential and important products of NISO. Developed from the recommendation of the Blue Ribbon Panel for a "synthesizing framework" to guide NISO's decision-making, it is a publication used both internally to the organization and externally by the membership to understand the information landscape and how products/solutions interface and interoperate and where standards exist and/or are needed to facilitate the interoperability of products. This document is designed to be used by all levels of members’ staff, from the CEO/President to the software engineers. It provides a context and understanding of what exists, what doesn’t and where opportunities exist for both products and standards. The document would be the result of NISO convening key, leading thinkers both from within the NISO membership and outside, to serve on a development/review committee. This document would likely be reviewed and/or revised quarterly, minimally every six months.
