PIA Visits ACORD London Office

The National Association of Professional Insurance Agents (PIA) visited the ACORD office tin London today. Keith Savino, hosted the group to discuss the role of data standards in the London Market specifically. Pictured are Beth Grossman, Keith Savino, Donna Pile, Greg Maciag, John Spalding, Robert Page, Ted Besesparis, Len Brevik, Phil Brown, Roy Laker, Brian Marino, Mark O'Connell. Len Brevik is the Executive Director of PIA and Robert Page is current President.

We spent five hours together with other invited guests to discuss progress and plans for using ACORD Standards. Our goal is to work more closely with the PIA going forward on advocacy for ACORD Standards. I want to thank Keith Savino and Beth Grossman for arranging this successful meeting.

New Book

My latest book presents the challenges members face when adopting industry standards as well as the opportunities that come as a result. It features my discussions with many people over many years and follows the foundation I set in my first book "The Business Information Revolution".

Industry standards are never adopted in a vacuum. They become part and parcel of all the trials and tribulations managers face in their day to day work. ACORD Standards are always part of a larger software development project that brings along people, priorities and politics. Adopting industry standards isn't simple, but the benefits far outweigh the problems of building and maintaining proprietary alternatives.

I trust that you will appreciate my frankness, identify with some of the challenges and learn from what others have done to pave the way.
