      <title>Industry Standard Data Models and InfoAdvisors</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;I'm happy to announce that Gartner has published a research note on Industry Standard Data Models (ISDM) and InfoAdvisors' services in helping clients use them effectively.  &lt;font style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"&gt;If you are attending DAMA, contact me (karen@infoadvisors.com) for information on how to get a complimentary copy of this case study.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.infoadvisors.com/Portals/0/images/blogs/host/WLW/IndustryStandardDataModelsandInfoAdvisor_E255/image_2.png"&gt;&lt;img width="400" height="196" border="0" style="border: 0px none ;" alt="Gartner screenshot - InfoAdvisors" src="http://www.infoadvisors.com/Portals/0/images/blogs/host/WLW/IndustryStandardDataModelsandInfoAdvisor_E255/image_thumb.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This research note, &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;InfoAdvisors: Modeling Beyond a Blank Sheet&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, authored by Michael Blechar, focuses on how organizations can benefit from adopting ISDMs.  He discusses how InfoAdvisors provides insights into the benefits, risks and best practices involved with implementing industry-standard data models and patterns.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If your organization is a Gartner subscriber, you can download the note for free by visiting &lt;a target="_blank" href="http://www.gartner.com"&gt;Gartner.com&lt;/a&gt; and searching for InfoAdvisors or using the research ID: G00154734.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Otherwise, you can purchase the note from the Gartner website.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As a reminder, I will be speaking on a similar topic at the upcoming DAMA LA meeting on 25 February 2008.  See our event listings for more information.&lt;/p&gt;
