- Conformance guidelines are sound and ensure best performance

## Examples of conformant GJXDM Deployment

## Maricopa County CJIS

- Non-compliant interfaces add extra cost

## Industry View of GJXDM

- Open standards such as XML and GJXDM will:
- Radically reduce cost to governments
- Reduce the risk to vendors
- Expedite information sharing development
- Increase customer satisfaction
- Wide-spread adoption of XML-based exchange models is a national imperative
