Agenda The opportunnity How the idea was depeloped The group modelling session –Pre-meeting activities –Meeting activities –Post-meeting activities What is next

The Opportunity Past fall, MIT students visit to Albany – Laura Black presented to us her work with technology and Cross-Boundary Collaboration The Center for Technology in Government at the University at Albany, –worked since 1993 to study just this process through implementation of Technology ‑ Based Innovations in the Public Sector –Gateways to the Past, Present, and Future: Practical Guidelines to the Secondary Uses of Electronic Records

How The Idea Was Developed Jan/2001 DFA starts talking with potential participants – Paper proposal Mar/13/2001 Meeting with Tony Cresswell (CTG) – Group modelling approach Mar/20/2001 Meeting with all the KDI team – Initial interest in the project Mar/29/2001 Meeting with modeling group – HIMS project selected / session scheduled Apr/13/2001 First modeling meeting – More than a paper
