Draft document.

General guidelines:

  1. The total length of this plan should not exceed the equivalent of one printed page.
  2. To support brevity, feel free to include hyperlinks to other public information resources.
  3. All plans need three things: scope, resources and schedule. As long as you have these three categories sufficiently included, you will satisfy the reporting requirements.
  4. A common phrase used in this template is "data product", this refers to any document, file, visualization, report, index, press release, blog, software, web site, web platform, web service, or other information service that is created and published and that supports the Department of Commerce's "Open for Business" Strategic Plan.
