7. FIXM Strategy and Governance
FIXM is growing and maturing
Strategy and Governance needed to ensure controlled growth, high quality & right direction
Challenge is to maintain rapid progress (balance between control and progress)
Used AIXM as a good starting point for -XM best practices
FIXM Strategy document and Change Management Charter published by FIXM CCB

8. FIXM Strategy Goals: Published and approved by FIXM CCB
Define objectives & requirements for FIXM standard
Guide development of FIXM
Establish governance framework
Published and approved by FIXM CCB
(Change Control Board)

9. FIXM Strategy Core+Extensions Model:
Consistent with AIXM & WXXM approach
Core
Globally applicable
Regional Extensions
supplement FIXM core to support
additional (e.g. regional) requirements
FIXM CCB will minimize proliferation of extensions
FF-ICE (Flight and Flow Information for a Collaborative Environment) provisions to be supported in FIXM v4.0
(to extent possible)
Adhere to existing ATM Standards

10. FIXM Governance
Greater uptake in implementation expected with FIXM v3.0
Governance will continue to mature post-FIXM v3.0 (new challenges, wider set of stakeholders)
In support of ICAO FF-ICE, the content of FIXM v3.0 reflects the continuous progress and evolution under discussion. Global convergence is expected to be achieved in FIXM 4.0
