Information Model V2.11
The ACORD Reference Architecture provides an enterprise architecture framework for the insurance industry. It consists of business processes, standards, information models, software, and infrastructure analysis to run and operate insurance companies and applications efficiently
The Information Model is a formal and conceptual representation of data elements across all lines of business. It provides a comprehensive framework of all fundamental insurance concepts – such as Policy, Product, Party, and Claims – and a broad view of the relationships among them. The Information Model is linked to all the ACORD Standards, and can be used to accelerate and enhance application development; as a semantic model for integration of disparate systems; and to provide a point of reference for information requirements to system designers, business users, developers, and other stakeholders.
Version 2.11 is the most recent full release of the Information Model. Previous versions are also available by request.
ACORD Reference Architecture components are also available to download for subscribers in the Reference Architecture area.
