Jan Davis & Mary Ann Francis: MISMO Software Compliance Certification Brown Bag Winter 2014 Educational Summit & Workshops Program Design Concepts 5 Certification always includes a review of the company’s MISMO- related practices. Additional components of the certification process include reviews of product or component use of MISMO against appropriate portions of the Reference Model within the identified domain. In general both Standard and Premiere Levels require certification of the following: –Certification of company policies and practices as related to MISMO. –Certification of appropriate use of the MISMO schema and logical data dictionary for specified business domains. –Certification of software or tool and proof of capability to store and/or create MISMO oriented data transmissions, interfaces, or reports. Premiere Level also requires certification of MISMO-related education policies and practices

13. Jan Davis & Mary Ann Francis: MISMO Software Compliance Certification Brown Bag Winter 2014 Educational Summit & Workshops Domain compliance means: The software or tool uses the features, approaches and data available in v.3.x. Use of v3.x is expected. Use of alternate versions must be explained (e.g., use of 2.x is supported but must be explained). Published MISMO Implementation Guides (I-Guides) will serve as the benchmark for “conformity” where available and applicable. It is expected that compliance evidence and test cases demonstrate v3.x changes and extensions (if extensions have been made) For domains and business/test cases where extensions from 2.x exist, use of 3.x changes and extensions is expected Use of both the MISMO XML Schema and Logical Data Dictionary standards and definitions are expected 13
