Reference Data Management

Code tables are crucial. Keeping versions of inhouse and industry standard code tables up to date and consistent across the organization can be a maintenance headache. IBM have a good, clear process for keeping on top of this vital function. They call it Reference Data Management and it makes a lot of sense.

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.
