Generically-defined software components that in combination provide key functionalities to facilitate generic workflows common across multiple sectors.

Characteristics​

• Reusable software components​

• Open-source, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS), or freely available with open access to data​

• Facilitates one or more generic workflows​

• Applicable to multiple use cases across multiple sectors​

• Interoperable with other ICT Building Blocks​

• Designed for scalability and extensibility​

• Standards-based​

For an extended definition of building block criteria, please see this draft document. We welcome any expert feedback on what makes a building block adherent to these core characteristics as outlined in this technical draft.

Get involved

If you are a user of GovStack’s specifications and / or would like to submit feedback to improve a specification, the first point of contact would be the Working Group.

Working Groups are open teams where experts meet to advance specifications. They meet mostly online and do asynchronous work where they discuss how the specifications can be improved, and in cases where teams are using the specifications, Working Groups are a good place to discuss feedback and ask other experts how to implement the specifications.

A good place to start is to get in touch with the Working Group, via our community Slack. You can get a Slack invitation here, and below you will find a link to the slack channel for each Working Group.
