What we’ll cover:
• What the heck is a Mobile Framework and why do we need one? – FY12 developed a scalable life-cycle based process for
managing app development and deployment– FY13 Tim will cover best practices, testing tools and
protocols, and experience gained
– FY14 – SOI Submitted and Approved.

3CDI Webinar Series 2013
Why do we need a Framework:
• Because the challenges still exist:– Rapidly changing environment– Duplicated efforts– No formalized common tools or processes– No deployment or life-cycle management
approach– Unknown, or limited support opportunities
• collaboration, funding and data sharing

Mobile Framework: Support for the Mobile Ecosystem
• Focused on– Establishing a Community
• reduce duplication of effort, establish lessons learned
– Incorporating technical and project management perspectives and requirements into the app life-cycle
– Establishing an efficient, documented method for deployment of compliant apps• Navigate a minefield of federal requirements• Workflow, support tools such as inventory, version control
and configuration and change management, test platforms
– Incorporating industry best practices
• Let’s have a FAST look at the workflows:

More about the Mobile Framework
• Directly supports the President’s Digital Strategy requirements to:– Develop secure, device agnostic mobile applications– Foster code sharing– Validate official government applications– Provide a development test environment to streamline app
delivery• and more …
• As of January 2013 DOI is awaiting formal adoption of our approach for providing USGS life-cycle management of development and release and native app license management
• Let’s take a quick look at the Mobile Community Site

FY13 Focus: Policy Support
• Worked with the Department to get “federal friendly” Terms of Service approved for various stores as well as a Mobile PIA and summary guidelines
• Developed knowledge base on other policy issues: 508/accessibility, privacy acts, paperwork reduction act, COPPA, underserved communities, Digital Government Strategy– Most of these extend existing web policies to
address mobile presentation and data collection

FY13 Lessons Learned
• Some successes, some abject failures• Need a distributed team to handle support,
cannot rely on one person or even one cost center
• Development process, if done correctly, can be pretty expensive – need to find ways to share costs among projects to drive overall costs down

• Publish a Governance Model– FSPAC Coordination
• Adopt USGS Mobile apps as Official Products
– A Policy Matrix that also supports Web, Social Media and other products with overlapping policy requirements.
– License Management
• Document development support options and processes• Provide review and approval tools and processes to assist
developers and project managers– License Management, Security and Code Reviews, Science Review, etc.
• Change Management– Finalize Inventory – Finalize Code Repository (GitHub)
• Documentation and Training to support Mobile and Cloud– Ensure code integrity and agility that allows migration between private and public cloud services on demand
• Develop a USGS Mobile app
