Status of Commons Development…cont • V 2.0 • J2EE Platform • Review of inception phase – done • CDR Scheduled for August 20 • Architecture document – handout • Database design document • Data Dictionary • Promotion Plan • GUI Screen Standards • V 2.0 Interfaces: • Admin/Registration, Accounts/Profiles • RUP Development Process - underway • Business Use Cases for each interface - done • Activity Diagram example – handout • Technical Use Cases for each interface – done • Implementation (development) - underway • GUI Screens – September/October

  5. Rational Unified Process for Software Engineering

  6. SNAP Survey Responses • May CWG meeting – development of consensus for possible SNAP business process changes for consideration by NIH • Current survey to confirm recommendations in light of further discussion with institutional staff/NIH staff • Finalize recommendations for implementation • Introduce any changes into paper SNAP • Incorporate changes as part of E-SNAP V 2.0 development • Pilot late 2002

  15. Interface Specifications Survey Responses • May CWG meeting – • Introduction of various Commons user issues for consideration • Organizational Hierarchy • Institutional Reporting Requirements • Institutional Approvals: Commons User Roles and Rights • Single Point of Ownership • DUNS Numbers as Unique Identifiers • Distribution of survey to determine requirements/preferences • Identify additional areas for focus

  16. Institutional Reporting Requirements • Requirements provided for 4 categories of “PI” report • Pre-award Reports • Application receipt • Assignment • Review & Council • Budget • Post-award Reports • Deadlines for renewal • NGA • Funds remaining • Level of effort • NIH Staff-related Information • Names and contact information • Commons Administration Reports • Status of works-in-progress • Lists of delegations • Other Reports and Notifications • Changes in award status, constraints, deadlines

  17. Institutional Reporting Requirements …cont. • Requirements provided for 4 categories of “AO” and “SO” reports • AO Reports • Similar categories as for PI • Honors confidentiality of summary statement and score • Provide reports for all applications/awards in account hierarchy • Lists sortable by grant #, name, grant type, award date, etc. • Statistics: total award amount for institutional component, relative rankings(?) • SO Reports • Similar categories as for PI • Honors confidentiality of summary statement and score • Provide reports for all institutional applications/awards • Lists sortable by grant #, name, grant type, award date, etc. • Possibility of award history reports • Statistics: total numbers of awards, total amounts, averages, relative rankings

  18. Report Hierarchy SO SO AO AO AO PI PI PI PI PI PI PI

  19. Single Point of Ownership • Got it LOUD and CLEAR: PI’s will not maintain their own profile (unless there’s a clear and present danger if they don’t…i.e. link to award) • Need to offer delegation of this task (chore?) • Commons profile system must allow for interaction with third party software (e.g. COS) • Integrate NIH Commons profile with Federal Commons to increase value of information • Possibly remind PI’s of “dormant” profiles

  20. DUNS Numbers as Unique Identifier • DUNS is a relatively good choice for universal identifier • Will require establishment of institutional DUNS • Single DUNS for submission to NIH • Limitations due to familiarity and potential for modification by P.I. • New Commons won’t require institutional number for logon • Not used for hierarchical identification • Would not want to use DUNS 9+4 for this purpose • Excessive administrative burden • How to determine organizational hierarchy for sorting purposes? • Part of Role/rights specification?? • i.e. include title of choice and organizational component

  21. Why do we need Organizational Hierarchy? Accountability! • Institutional Considerations • Approval of binding decisions • Control of budget/management, etc. • Audit/report to sponsors and institutional leaders • NIH Considerations • Grantee compliance with policy and practice • Reporting to congress on outcomes/benefits; numbers of awards to types and components within organizations

  22. Organizational Hierarchy • Four basic organizational levels • Department • Division • Unit/School/College/Institute • Institution/Hospital • Any category can be duplicated within levels • Category typically serves common role across institution • Final approval usually delegated to one level • For purposes of defining IPF, all levels should be available for specification • Changes in the hierarchy • People change frequently • Roles are relatively stable, cut can change especially at the department level

  23. Organizational Hierarchy…cont. • Roles and rights in current Commons are not hierarchical • Some indicate they need to be • Some are satisfied with current system • Commons needs to have flexibility in making awards to university-related foundations • Foundation hierarchy not important

  24. Defining Organizational Hierarchy

  25. Institutional Approvals – User Roles and Rights • Platinum:Make routing generic and programmable for each department/school for each institution, since no two institutional components are the same • Gold: Modify existing NIH Commons approach to add: • Delegation Authority for all role types • WIP to be created by any role type • Examine approach to provide additional customization of rights within any role type: “rights menu” • Silver: Current NIH Commons approach is adequate • Open routing for comments/input • Vertical approval hierarchy: PI -> AO -> SO

  26. NIH Commons User Types - Permissions ERA Function/User Type S.O. A.O. A.A. P.I. Create S.O. & A.O. Accts. X X Create additional A.O. Accts. X X X Create P.I. Accts. X X X Review Sci. and Admin.
