Subject: Requests for consultant services
The approved spending plan for the LegalXML Member Section
for 2006 includes a little over $22,000 for consultant services. The Steering Committee’s intention
for the use of these funds is to provide TCs with technical expertise in drafting
specifications and related artifacts. As you know, the availability of such
services enabled the Electronic Court Filing TC to complete its drafting of ECF
3.0 after a number of years of inconclusive efforts. If your TC desires to have OASIS hire a consultant to
provide support for your efforts, please submit a proposal to the Member
Section Steering Committee by February 1, 2006. The address for the Steering Committee
list is included as a cc to this email.
The Steering Committee will review the requests during its next
regularly scheduled meeting on February 8th. Your request should include the following information: 1. A description of the specification for
which you wish technical assistance 2. The status of the TC’s work to
date on that effort – for instance, that you have completed a statement
of requirements, developed an architecture, etc. The Steering Committee will want to know
your TC’s “readiness” for detailed work on a specification. 3. An estimate of the number of hours of
consulting services required to bring the specification into existence. 4. A rough time line for the TC’s
intended development process once a consultant has been hired. 5. How the TC will cope with the
possibility that the Member Section’s resources will not sufficient to
pay for all of the effort required to complete the specification. 6. How the TC will oversee the performance
of the consultant and approve consultant invoices for payment by OASIS. We cannot guarantee that every request received will be
funded. The Member Section
resources are limited. If multiple
requests are received, the Steering Committee will have to decide which request
or requests offer the greatest likelihood for return on the investment to be
made. John
