The Emmett Leahy Award is the highest level of recognition given to an

It honors Emmett Leahy, an icon in the development of the lifecycle

information management concepts have been widely applied in government,
business, and industry throughout the world.

and the nomination and selection process.  The URL for the Emmett Leahy
