- 8. Provide a brief summary and justification for this investment, including a brief description of how this closes in part or in whole an identified agency performance gap.
- NEDSS (National Electronic Disease Surveillance System) is an Internet-based infrastructure for public health surveillance data exchange that uses specific PHIN (Public Health Information Network) and NEDSS Data Standards. NEDSS also relies heavily on industry standards (including standard vocabulary code sets such as LOINC, SNOMED, and HL7), policy-level agreements on data access/ protection of confidentiality. NEDSS represents an ongoing close collaboration between the CDC and its public health partners. NEDSS is not a single, monolithic application, but a system of interoperable subsystems, components and systems modules that include software applications developed and implemented by the CDC; those developed and implemented by State and Local health departments and those created by commercial services and vendors. During FY2007, CDC's NEDSS Project strategically realigned its funding and long range planning to better address changing information technology capabilities and to meet emerging needs in local, state, and national public health surveillance. These realigned resources will support standards-based PHIN and American Health Information Community (AHIC)-approved, electronic message exchange between public health stakeholders (providers, labs, local and state public health, and CDC). When NEDSS began in 2001, no state had integrated public health surveillance systems as articulated in the NEDSS vision; today over 35 states have implemented surveillance systems based on this vision. Initially, CDC responded to requests from states seeking assistance to obtain NEDSS software solutions, often based on local and state information technology resource constraints. The CDC NEDSS Base System (NBS) was designed and developed by CDC to meet those needs. Today, 16 states use the NBS (mission-critical application). Additionally, the NEDSS project will increase the resources, technical support, and training required to accelerate successful adoption of the NEDSS Message Subscription Service (MSS). A CDC strategic mission critical area supported by NEDSS include: "People Prepared for Emerging Health Threats": 1. Detection & Reporting - Communications: Improve the timeliness and accuracy of communications regarding threats to the public's health. 2. Investigation: Decrease the time to identify causes, risk factors, and appropriate interventions for those affected by threats to the public's health.

SUMMARY OF SPEND
- 1. Provide the total estimated life-cycle cost for this investment by completing the following table. All amounts represent budget authority in millions, and are rounded to three decimal places. Federal personnel costs should be included only in the row designated Government FTE Cost, and should be excluded from the amounts shown for Planning, Full Acquisition, and Operation/Maintenance. The total estimated annual cost of the investment is the sum of costs for Planning, Full Acquisition, and Operation/Maintenance. For Federal buildings and facilities, life-cycle costs should include long term energy, environmental, decommissioning, and/or restoration costs. The costs associated with the entire life-cycle of the investment should be included in this report.

PERFORMANCE
- Agencies must use the following table to report performance goals and measures for the major investment and use the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) Performance Reference Model (PRM). Map all Measurement Indicators to the corresponding Measurement Area and Measurement Grouping identified in the PRM. There should be at least one Measurement Indicator for each of the four different Measurement Areas (for each fiscal year). The PRM is available at www.egov.gov. The table can be extended to include performance measures for years beyond FY 2009.

- 4. Identify the service components funded by this major IT investment (e.g., knowledge management, content management, customer relationship management, etc.). Provide this information in the format of the following table. For detailed guidance regarding components, please refer to http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/egov/.
Component: Use existing SRM Components or identify as NEW. A NEW component is one not already identified as a service component in the FEA SRM.
Reused Name and UPI: A reused component is one being funded by another investment, but being used by this investment. Rather than answer yes or no, identify the reused service component funded by the other investment and identify the other investment using the Unique Project Identifier (UPI) code from the OMB Ex 300 or Ex 53 submission.
Internal or External Reuse?: Internal reuse is within an agency. For example, one agency within a department is reusing a service component provided by another agency within the same department. External reuse is one agency within a department reusing a service component provided by another agency in another department. A good example of this is an E-Gov initiative service being reused by multiple organizations across the federal government.
Funding Percentage: Please provide the percentage of the BY requested funding amount used for each service component listed in the table. If external, provide the funding level transferred to another agency to pay for the service.

PART TWO
RISK
Answer the following questions to describe how you are managing investment risks.
- 1. Does the investment have a Risk Management Plan?
- yes
- 1.a. If yes, what is the date of the plan?
- 2006-01-01
- 1.b. Has the Risk Management Plan been significantly changed since last year's submission to OMB?
- no
- 3. Briefly describe how investment risks are reflected in the life cycle cost estimate and investment schedule:
- The NEDSS scope and budget planning is based on a work breakdown structure technique that decomposes each work element into its fundamental components. Each component is evaluated based on a risk assessment. This technique helps to clearly define the deliverables to the customer. The budget is determined based on the cost and risk value of the work element. The budget for each element is derived from the most likely scenario that has been risk adjusted. The total of each element comprises the full budget for NEDSS.
COST & SCHEDULE
- 1. Does the earned value management system meet the criteria in ANSI/EIA Standard 748?
- yes
- 2. Is the CV% or SV% greater than ± 10%?
- no
- 3. Has the investment re-baselined during the past fiscal year?
- no
