The Platform
CDC needs an updated informatics environment and efficient informatics processes that support surveillance requirements of timely and accurate data for CDC's public health activities in the United States and globally. A significant need exists for an agile, secure, cloud-based and flexible approach to improve the efficiency of CDC's existing surveillance systems. The solution will consist of shared services efficiently used and made available through a Surveillance Data Platform (SDP).
The Surveillance Data Platform Mission
Develop a platform of services for internal and external partners that enhances the ability to collect, manage, analyze, and disseminate data; reduces unnecessary burden on internal and external partners; and improves surveillance capabilities.
SDP Key Terms
Platform: Virtual environment that makes services available to users.
Services: People, process, or technology that fulfills a need or request that is reusable and measureable.
Shared Services: People, process, or technology that fulfills a common need or request that is used by more than one CDC Program, enabled to be sharable, scalable, and standardized. This includes shared governance of the shared service.
This Space
This space will serve as a collaborative area for the CDC SDP team to document results from stakeholder engagements, high-level requirements elicitation, and develop functional and non-functional requirements.
For a quick glimpse into stakeholder needs related to various shared services, try the /wiki/spaces/PLAT/pages/14909454, which is updated on an ongoing basis as the team gains more information from stakeholder engagements.
From these stakeholder sessions, we also document /wiki/spaces/PLAT/pages/11862018.
This space will also be used as we formalize functional and /wiki/spaces/PLAT/pages/14909593requirements for the SDP.
