48. Some Thoughtful Questions

49. Does the industry (still) need collaborative efforts to produce, refine, and support data, information and process standards? The industry seems to continue to struggle with problems resulting from the lack of consistency, quality, compatibility, etc. in data and information as stored, as transferred, and as used. –Non-competitive, collaborative standards efforts are still needed.

50. Why are many standards not widely used or not producing intended results? We don’t define non-competitive boundaries well? We don’t step up to the real (full) scope? –We solve a subset? We solve under idealized conditions? We don’t see the need to invest precious time, resources, and expertise? [self-fulfilling prophesy] We expect standards to be 100% finished and never have to change again? We are tempted to stand on the sidelines and let others do the heavy lifting [standards definition]?

51. So … In order to have the best chance that the results of our collaborative efforts are really used and do produce expected results, –We believe that we must keep what is chosen to be done, what is being done, and what has been done In YOUR minds and in YOUR hands. Therefore, our recommended emphasis on The Energy Standards Resource Centre and on pursuing qualified Major Initiatives.

52. And … We don’t need armies of your people to conceive and define non-competitive, collaborative solutions [standards] that work, but we do need: –A few of your Visionaries to ensure that the right problems are being addressed –Your key Leaders to clear the way for the solutions to come into full and proper use –Your Front-Line Professionals to express the real “purpose,” to “test fitness,” and to “be committed to deployment”. These people help make standards truly successful and will be more valuable to your organization
