BETHESDA, MD -- Learn the financial benefits of standards based e-business in the aftermarket during one of four breakout sessions taking place on Sept. 7, at the Aftermarket Financial Symposium: Leveraging for Growth in Chicago.

Participants have the choice of attending two of four breakout sessions at the event. One choice -- The Financial Benefits of Standards Based eBusiness in the Aftermarket session -- will be led by Scott Luckett, AAIA vice president for technology standards and solutions. Luckett will draw the technology roadmap to a standards-based digital aftermarket.

"Practicing good standard-based technology will reduce operating costs," Luckett said. "eBusiness in the aftermarket is more than bells and whistles for the techies - it's bottom line strategies for financial professionals."
