The overall mantra proposed for CMAs is to do things faster, better, and at the lowest possible cost.
Balancing Scores (Assocham National Summit ) 28.10.15CMA .Pankaj Jain
The document discusses the balanced scorecard approach to performance management. The balanced scorecard translates an organization's vision and strategy into objectives and measures across four perspectives: financial, customer, internal processes, and learning and growth. Objectives and measures are developed for each perspective, and they are linked through cause-and-effect relationships. The balanced scorecard balances both short and long term objectives, financial and non-financial measures, lagging and leading performance drivers, and internal and external performance perspectives to provide strategic feedback to managers. Developing a balanced scorecard model involves defining objectives and performance indicators for each of the four perspectives. Making the balanced scorecard successful requires aligning strategies, communicating objectives, and linking measures to strategic initiatives.

OpenStreetMap and CycleStreets: collaborative map-making and cartography in t...CycleStreets
Abstract: The arrival of web-based mapping from Google and others has revolutionised, in the space of only five years, the way many people interact with maps and map data. And the success of projects such as Wikipedia highlight how collation of small amounts of information from large numbers of people - an approach called 'crowdsourcing' - can challenge traditional models of data collection and ownership. Bringing these concepts together is OpenStreetMap, a collaborative project to create a free editable map of the world. Well-established enterprises such as the Ordnance Survey are coming under increased pressure from this new model, and large companies such as MapQuest and Microsoft are starting to use and invest in it. Martin Lucas-Smith, Webmaster in the Department, and one of two main developers of the leading UK-wide cycle journey planner website, CycleStreets, will discuss OpenStreetMap, its use within a wide range of systems (from cartography, routing, and even its central role helping deal with the Haiti disaster) and discuss the challenges it poses to traditional forms of cartography and data collection.
