CSPA Global Artefact Catalogue Framework Overview
Introduction:
Constraints/Questions
Quality rich information and content resources are needed
to support the vision for the CSPA Global Artefact
Catalogue:
 We are not looking at acquiring any additional tooling initially (the
Confluence Wiki (potentially utilising a plug-in) will be used for at minimum
the ‘knowledge base’ , statistical services and Technical/Supporting services
layers
“A primary aim of CSPA is to support efficient sharing and reuse of
process patterns, information and services at an organization and
international level.
One key requisite in achieving this goal is an ability to reliably and
efficiently discover what is available for reuse to support a
particular business need. This includes an ability to efficiently
assess whether a potentially reusable artefact is, in fact, "fit for
purpose" in practice when it comes to supporting that particular
business need.
Catalogues of reusable resources have a key role within CSPA.
They provide lists and descriptions of standardized artefacts, and,
where relevant, information on how to obtain and use them.”
 The Virtual Help Desk is already established
 Requirements for Technical/Supporting services should be a sub-set of those
requirements currently detailed for Statistical Services
 Business Capabilities catalogue will be initially delivered by the SN BA project
Questions
 Would the knowledge base be separate to the Virtual Help Desk (ie there
maybe another layer to the model)?
 Will we progress the business plans and interest at this point – it is the key
area that is not being addressed in any project at this time?
