Description
Call for initial membership of this WG occurred in conjunction with ICANN43 in Costa Rica, and teleconferences held from March to December of 2012. Work then continued as part of wider ALAC ROP Review WG activity. The ALAC SC on Metrics restarted in 2013; all meetings are listed below. Membership is open to all, with the aim of reasonable regional representation. In 2015 this Sub Committee paused activity while the ALAC and At-Large were prioritising their time-critical work in the CCWG on IANA Transition and Accountability, followed by the At-Large Review. In November 2018 this Sub Committee was reconvened as shown in the Members list below to carry out amongst other things the At-Large Review Implementation of identified Issue #16, which has been added to the previously defined primary purpose or prime objective(s).
The ALAC Subcommittee on Metrics was initially a subgroup of the wider ALAC Rules of Procedure (ROP) Working Group (WG), after the 1st ALAC/At-Large review, and today as then aims to have a well balanced, specifically skilled or experienced, yet diverse representation of RALO and ALAC members.
The primary initial purpose of the SC is AMSC was to create, develop and propose detailed metrics and performance indicators of ALAC members, and representatives of the ALAC and At-Large Community, to the ALACin relation to ICANN activities and undertakings. This includes but is not limited to, participation in ICANN activities as appointees, as described in the 2013 ALAC Rules of Procedure (Part B Section 9, Item 9.9): as well as be the institutional home for other metrics and measurables projects and programs that has an affect or effect in or on ALAC/At-Large.
An example of AMSC work would be activities carried out in relation to the following in the ALAC ROP “The ALAC is empowered to publish an Adjunct Document: Metrics and Remedial Actions for ALAC Members and Appointees to describe in fuller detail the metrics referenced in Paragraphs 9.2 – 9.4..."
...
Issue #16 of the 2nd At-Large Review also states "....Metrics will be developed for each activity in which At-Large participants are involved in order to measure the effectiveness of our processes as well as the actual involvement of active participants who assist the ALAC to carry out its work within ICANN. Such evidence will not only provide transparency and accountability of the contribution made by At-Large with regards to their meaningful contribution in support of the policy development work carried out by ICANN's supporting organisations, but also of the degree of effort and engagement of the many volunteers whose meaningful contribution to the work of At-Large adds value to the development of policy that is an essential part of the the work of ICANN." and goes on to state.
Tool(s) for collecting each identified performance metric
Staff (where required) to assist in monitoring and collection of data relevant to each identified performance metric
Methodology for scoring each identified/collected performance metric
Procedure for dealing with changes in data collection, solution
...
So with this, the AMSC adds to its core functions these matters, in conjunction with the work of the ARIWG. on each issue, in addition with any ensuing and or ongoing work related to these measurables.
The AMSC also focuses upon:
- Specifics of proposed metrics and key performance indicators, as listed in ALAC ROP (Part B, Sec 9.2 - 9.4)
- Additional metrics and indicators, and any interpretation or reporting variations proposed
- Publications and tools for metrics and performance measurement, as well as access to information for display and use.
- Building trust, consensus and understanding of performance metrics within the ALAC, RALOs, At-Large Community (including ALSes and Individuals) and wider ICANN Community.
To do this the AMSC will going forward cause to be chartered or come into being, such suitable yet temporary groupings of people from the At-Large or ICANN Community, into specifically tasked and time bound Working Groups, Work Tracks or Work Parties where for example consensus outcomes can be developed regarding specifics of desirable measurements to be data captured for use as objective thresholds or criteria; performance indicators; or requirements of a specified role.
