The I3C Mission
I3C develops and promotes global, vendor-neutral informatics solutions that improve data quality and accelerate the development of life science products.
To Achieve the Mission..
Conflicting forces must be balanced to succeed Free information exchange and
IPR Regulatory compliance and
operational efficiency Standardization and
complexity The signs on how to proceed
are not always clear
The I3C is not alone in these challenges!
The Open Group Mission
To drive the creation of Boundaryless Information Flow™ by: Working with customers to capture, understand and address
current and emerging requirements, establish policies and share best practices;
Working with suppliers, consortia and standards bodies to develop consensus and facilitate interoperability, to evolve and integrate open specifications and open source technologies;
Offering a comprehensive set of services to enhance the operational efficiency of consortia; and
Developing and operating the industry's premier certification service and encouraging procurement of certified products.
Boundaryless Information Flow™ To achieve Boundaryless Information Flow™ an
organization needs to put in place infrastructure services that bring information together and provide that information to those users and applications that need it.
Boundaryless Information Flow™ represents a set of challenges that most companies have.
The Open Group is tackling the problems represented by Boundaryless Information Flow™ and is the place in the industry to work on these issues.
I3C and The Open Group
By working together, the I3C can leverage The Open Group’s work to achieve a vision of a Interoperable, Secure and dependable Informatics Infrastructure
Opportunities exist for immediate benefit Architecture Security Directory
The Open Group is ..
A global consortium committed to delivering greater business efficiency by bringing together buyers and suppliers of information technology to lower the time, cost and risk associated with integrating new technology across the enterprise.

Security – our Vision
Security is about achieving business objectives within applicable law and policy Managing risk Not merely preventing bad things
Security creates protected systems with controlled perimeters A controlled perimeter is “boundaryless”
where (and only where) it needs to be Security design is necessarily pervasive
Bridge the gap between business objectives and traditional “security” technology Identifygaps in both understanding and technology Better understanding between buyers and suppliers Positioning within the Security Life Cycle – Concept,
Requirements, H-L Design, L-L Design, Implementation, Integration, Test & Certification, Operation & Maintenance, Obsolescence & Succession.
Develop collaborative activities with other consortia to avoid duplication of effort & leverage best-of-breed solutions
A big part of the problem is just defining exactly what problem we’re solving

Working Together
We’d like to invite the I3C to work with The Open Group to identify and establish standards and best practices in Boundaryless Informatics Architecture Security Policies and Risk Management
practices Directory Interoperability
In conclusion By engaging with other IT vendors and
customers working toward a vision of Boundaryless Information Flow™ , the I3C can realize: Faster and simpler identification of necessary
interoperability, reliability standards for informatics
Faster availability of necessary informatics standards in commercial practice
= Faster and more efficient deployment of life science products
