The mission of the IMS project is to improve members effectiveness by fostering an atmosphere of information sharing with a focus on all aspects of IMS and its interactions with the Enterprise Information Environment. To this end, the project:
- Schedules sessions to provide valuable education from IBM, other vendors and users
- Schedules sessions in response to attendee requests
- Schedules forums to allow for information interchange
- Influences SHARE, IBM and other vendors based upon member input
The goals are:
- Increase the knowledge and effectiveness of member IMS technical people
- Increase members' awareness of industry trends and directions with regard to IMS connectivity and use from other platforms.
- Communicate members tactical and strategic concerns to SHARE and IBM
- Assist IBM in improving current and future products.
