Vision

• Make inter-state sharing an effective, efficient,
  simple and practical process
• Establish a proven roadmap that...
• Enables effective information flow,
• Leverages and enhances the existing systems and
  portals currently deployed in each participating
  state,
• Adopts and uses proven national standards (NIEM,
  JRA, GFIPM) wherever and whenever practical
  within a pre-defined reference architecture,
• Retains control within each state over what, how,
  when and where information is shared and with
  whom,
• Leverages existing governance structure(s) to
  facilitate this vision, wherever and whenever
  possible.
