Academy of ICT Essentials for Government Leaders ICG Assessment Individual Proposal Assessment Community Processes: Openness, Inclusiveness, and Consensus Completeness and Clarity Combined Proposal Assessment NTIA Criteria

Academy of ICT Essentials for Government Leaders ICG Assessment for Combined Proposal Compatibility and interoperability: Do the proposals work together in a single proposal? Are there any incompatible arrangements where compatibility is r equired? Can conflicting overlaps between the functions be resolved in a workable manner? Accountability: Do the proposals together include appropriate and properly supp orted independent accountability mechanisms for running the IA NA function? Are there gaps in accountability under the single proposal? Workability: Do the results of any tests or evaluations of workability that were included in the component proposals conflict with each other or r aise possible concerns when considered in combination?

Academy of ICT Essentials for Government Leaders NTIA Criteria The transition proposal needs to: support & enhance the multistakeholder model; maintain the security, stability, & resiliency of the Intern et DNS; meet the needs & expectation of the global customers & partners of the IANA services; maintain the openness of the Internet NTIA stated it will not accept a proposal that repl aces the NTIA role with a government-led or an in ter-governmental organization solution.
