HL7 Tools And Services Inventory

From HL7Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The standards development work of HL7 International is increasingly dependent on tools and resources that help create, publish, maintain and distribute standards. Given new versions and new types of standards that evolve, the number of tools increases and need proper governance, maintenance and management. HL7 International also uses tools and resources for balloting, education, project management and administration for memberships which need to be accessible by the workgroups. Hence, the need for a tool and resource inventory emerged and was created in the summer of 2016. The focus of this inventory is to facilitate search for available tools and the long term governance of the tooling, resources and services assets of the HL7 organization.

All the HL7 tools and resources, both internal and external developed and managed, are included in the HL7 Tool Catalogue.

The HL7 Tools and Services Inventory Application User Guide v1.2 provides information on how to use the HL7 Tool Catalogue.

Complete the [File:Template_For_Submission_version02.xlsx Tool Submission Request template] as a first step in requesting a tool/service/resource be added to the HL7 Tools and Services Inventory Application. Please don't use any markup in the cells of the file, unless MediaWiki markup.

The process for getting a tool/ resource included in the HL7 Tool Catalogue is:

  • 1. Information on the tool/ resource must be described according to the Excel template because using this Excel allows direct uploading the information by the administrator. This template can be obtained from this wiki page [[1]].
  • 2. Fill out this Excel form linked via the EST Tool Inventory wiki page at http://wiki.hl7.org/index.php?title=File:Template_For_Submission_version02.xlsx
  • 3. Submit the completed form to the EST co-chairs at [[2]].
  • 4. The EST co-chairs will review the submission and will, if needed, ask for clarification on the information in the submission.
  • 5. The EST co-chairs will talk to HL7 HQ on the submission and decide together if the tool/ resource included in the submission will be included in the Tool Catalogue or not.
  • 6. If the submission will be included in the Tool Catalogue, a Tool Catalogue Administrator will add the tool/resource.
  • 7. If the submission will NOT be included in the Tool Catalogue, the EST co-chairs will notify the submitting organization or person and include the reason why the tool/resource was not included.
  • 8. In case you have any questions about the submission of a specific tool, you can contact the EST co-chairs as well [[3]].
