Strategy Markup Language

Strategy Markup Language (StratML) is an XML-based standard vocabulary and schema for the information commonly contained in strategic and performance plans and reports.

StratML Part 1 specifies the elements of strategic plans, including: mission, vision, values, goals, objectives, and stakeholders.

Its more explicit purposes include enabling strategic alignment through literal linkages between performance objectives and the business records supporting them.

Although the initial focus has been on the plans and reports that U.S. federal agencies are required to compile and maintain under the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA), the standard has been specified generically so as to be applicable not only to all organizations, worldwide, but also to individuals who choose to lead mission/goal-directed lives.

Section 10 of the [4] GPRA Modernization Act (GPRAMA) requires U.S. federal agencies to publish their strategic and performance plans and reports in machine-readable format.
