A method of global management of device data is disclosed, whereby the method is supported by a software system and optional apparatus. The device data is potentially shared within an organisation and between organisations, particularly where the devices and/or the organisations are geographically distributed. The method includes the stages of: (a) "security clearance" which includes the establishment of access rights of all potential users, (b) "meta data" which includes the definition of the types of data to be stored, and provides the foundation on which controlled data entry and error checking of the third stage are based, and (c) "operation" which allows entry of the actual data required for the business processes. The method is multi-lingual such that the method may accommodate the worldwide variations in languages, devices, and localised administrative processes. Additionally, the method is adapted to model a life cycle of device data, where the model of the life cycle of data includes design, installation, maintenance, and decommissioning, as well as providing for secured, automated, and global accessibility to the method.
