ACORD LOMA Forum to End: New ACORD Event to Launch

As you will hear in my opening remarks at the ACORD LOMA Forum last week, we are bringing the partnership to a close. ACORD began the conference in 1993 and we partnered with LOMA for eleven years. We plan to revert back to an ACORD Conference in 2015. We will merge content from ACORD-LOMA into the ACORD Implementation Forum. (Play the video on top and you'll see.) Anyhow, I just wanted to publicly say that it has been a real pleasure working with LOMA and we plan open new areas of cooperation in the future. (Picture with Jeff Hasty)

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.
