Welcome to the Information Value Edition of the Bill Inmon Newsletter featuring David Loshin, a recognized expert, author and speaker on information quality and business intelligence. In addition to my article that discusses the use of "time vaults" for archival data, this issue features an article from David that discusses the "people issues" involved when instituting a performance-oriented enterprise data quality program.

On behalf of the Business Intelligence Network, I encourage you to use the monthly Information Value Special Edition of the Bill Inmon Newsletter as your regular source of information and applicable operational processes that will enable you to quantify and elevate the information asset to the balance sheet. Also, please continue to use the Business Intelligence Network as your premier source for information pertaining to business intelligence, performance management, data warehousing and information quality.
