OASIS Overview  OASIS is a member consortium dedicated to building systems’ interoperability specifications  Main focus is on applications of structured information standards (eg XML, SGML) but increasing focus on adoption of standards  Members of OASIS are providers, users and specialists of standards-based technologies  Include organisations, individuals, industry groups and governments  More than 500 member organisations, 1000s individuals  Global, Not-for-profit, Open, Independent  Successful through industry and government wide collaboration  MOUs and Liaison Agreements with all major standardisation bodies, eg ISO, UN/CEFACT, CEN, W3C, etc.

Working Arrangements 1.Technical Committees are set-up by OASIS members to deliver a specific piece of work and then, usually, close down.  The Transformational Government TC seeks to produce an overall framework for using information technology to improve the delivery of public services through better citizen engagement to assure greater use and return on investment. 2.Member Sections are created when a collection of OASIS Members recognize a particular need or common goal and are willing to commit to work on that need over an extended period.  The eGovernment Member Section serves as a focal point for discussions of government and public administration requirements for e- business standardization.
