Compliance

Compliance

• Data exchanges operate most successfully when ambiguity is eliminated

• Ambiguity between exchanging partners can require significant effort (labor) to remove

• The higher the ambiguity, the higher the cost to implement effective and efficient data exchanges

Ambiguity = Cost

Productivity

Use of automation has resulted in productivity improvement but gains are not keeping pace with investment and expectations

Reference Data Federation

Collaboration is the Key

• To develop the standard• To build the reference data• To develop and test prototypes• To create production software• Gain access to the experts• Share the costs• Leverage knowledge• Common problem for all

iRINGTools - A set of free, public domain, open source (BSD 3 license) software applications and utilities that implement iRING protocols. iRINGTools provide users with production ready deployable solutions. iRINGTools also provides technology solution providers with usage patterns for the implementation of iRING protocols in their respective solutions.

iRINGUserGroup - An open online community of users, companies, and organizations who use, are considering using, or are developing or deploying iRING protocols. The iRINGUserGroup is also responsible for the management, enhancement, and maintenance of iRINGTools and iRINGSandbox.

iRINGSandbox – An internet hosted, publicly accessible and publicly downloadable, iRING reference system that will showcase the use of iRINGTools and other technology solution provider’s products that implement iRING protocols. This reference system will also include an example iRING community sandbox that will hold ISO 15926 RDL extensions.

iRING – A set of information interoperability and integration protocols and reference data that are compliant with the ISO 15926, Parts 7, 8, & 9 standards, which builds and depends on ISO 15926 Parts 1 - 6.
