Marketing Reasons For Vendors to Adopt SIF Competitive edge over competitors SIF Logo on their marketing material Easier to implement systems More data can be easily imported so the vendor can give more reports to the end user
Continue to talk to vendors about improvements and reporting Have them provide you a dashboard (monitoring). Are they giving you reports to help with 3DM and state reporting? Can they move to two way? How are they looking at SIF Spec 3.0? How active are they in the SIF community?
Data Integrity No endless imports and exports No blame game between vendor and end user about accuracy of data Can feel confident when querying data that it is accurate and up to date
Helpful Hints for Implementation Listen on Support calls Ask questions about what they are doing Take control during the GoToMeeting Clear time to learn, will be paid back later Understand what is in each object Make it a learning experience!
Map Your Data What goes with what? What are you sending where? Get help from vendor? Great help if you decide to switch vendors
