28A key development in DOJ-supported information sharing efforts is not an actual program, per se. Rather, it is an
37
emphasis on the climate of cooperation between agencies concerned with justice data exchange. For instance, this
esprit de corps was fostered through the Intergovernmental Partnership Forum (IPF), a meeting series that assembled
a collective of federal partners with an interest in justice-related information sharing to explore collaboration,
coordination of efforts, and replication of promising strategies. The focus was on the lines of business that employ
information sharing and technology, not on the technology itself. GAC representatives have participated in IPF events
as both presenters and attendees. IPF held its final meeting in January 2004.
NASCIO represents state chief information officers and information resource executives and managers from the 50
38
states, 6 U.S. territories, and the District of Columbia. NASCIO fosters government excellence through quality business
practices, information management, and technology policy. NASCIO’s vision is a government in which the public trust
is fully served through the efficient and effective use of technology. More information on NASCIO is available at www.
Information about NASCIO’s Adaptive Enterprise Architecture Development Program is available at

NCJA exists to promote the development of effective and efficient justice systems in states, tribal nations, and units
40
of local government that enhance public safety; prevent and reduce the harmful effects of criminal and delinquent
behavior on victims, individuals, and communities; and adjudicate defendants and sanction offenders fairly and justly.
In 2004, DOJ provided resource materials, support, and expertise to the NCJA “Road Map for Information Sharing”
series and NCJA National Forum 2004. More information on NCJA is available at
The NGA Center for Best Practices ( ) supports the BJA-sponsored Justice IT Integration Project
41
States Initiative. In 2003−2004, NGA conducted a series of regional workshops to assist participating state teams in
their strategic IT development and implementation plans. Global provided resource materials, support, and expertise
to this series.
The new version of the JIEM Modeling Tool has been designed with interface to the Global JXDM. For information on
42
the JIEM Project, please see
The DOJ LEIS Strategy is designed to make law enforcement information more widely available to authorized agency
43
officials, improve information sharing capabilities (among DOJ law enforcement components and between DOJ and its
law enforcement partners), and coordinate information sharing projects across DOJ and with law enforcement partner
agencies. Select Global and working group representatives have made significant contributions to this effort.
In the National Strategy for Homeland Security “Executive Summary” (page vii)—one of the formative documents of
44
DHS—the four foundations—(1) law, (2) science and technology, (3) information sharing and systems, and (4)
international cooperation—were designated as “unique American strengths that cut across all . . . levels of government”
and are essential to homeland security (emphasis added). GAC continues to support DHS by strengthening the key
foundation of information sharing and systems. The NIEM Project is a joint project of DHS and DOJ that uses core
elements of Global JXDM to facilitate information sharing. This project was initiated in early 2005.
