One issue that comes up in my discussions fairly regularly is "How should we start with metadata management?" Initial metadata management projects often have often foundered because they are wrongly scoped, wrongly structured, poorly justified or based on unverified assumptions. The addition of new technologies to the mix isn’t going to make this easier.</p> <p>Ian will put metadata management in context of changing information management practices and will walk through 10 "Best Practices" that have proved their worth in creating early success, with a focus on how each one contributes to project value, or cost reduction. I’ll focus on:</p> <ul> <li> Justifying metadata management </li> <li> Managing your stakeholders </li> <li> Scoping a project </li> <li> Marketing your solution </li> <li> Managing for sustainability </li> <li> Working with vendors </li> </ul> <p>More information and registration available at <a href="http://www.damapdx.org">www.damapdx.org</a></p> <h2> Speaker Bio: </h2> <p>Ian Rowlands is a VP of Product Management at ASG.
