ACORD-LOMA Participation Up 25%

We registered nearly 2,000 participants this year, showing a 25% increase over 2009. We added a few innovations with positive feedback and you will see more networking sessions and social media tools becoming a regular part of ACORD-LOMA.

The future of your business will be driven in large part by your ability to move and share information with trading partners. And if you are not planning to do so using ACORD industry standards, your business is going to be toast. The private data standards used in the past will not carry you into the future. There is no avoiding the inevitable. The people at our meeting get it and I know you get it as well. So if you did not attend this year, I look forward to seeing you at our next event. And if you did attend, thanks for being part of the action and for providing the great feedback.

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.
