Consulting
Our consulting process has been designed to address The Big Picture but to do it in manageable chunks. This reduces risk and delivers benefits earlier.
The purpose of our consultancy offering is to deploy information asset management (IAM) expertise, in order for you to:
- Receive an objective, independent assessment of current information storage and management processes in terms of industry best practice.
- Gain access to extensive deployment skills and experience for developing plans for information storage and management.
- Catalyse
the move towards managing the information lifecycle to leverage the
most value out of it and make total cost of ownership appropriate.
A sequence of value frames forms the framework of our IAM consultancy service, typically comprising the following steps:-
Programme scoping
This
defines policy-driven information management initiatives for
unstructured content, in support of client strategy and objectives.
This step will examine technology enabled business process optimisation, resulting in a set of recommended value frames.
Business benefit analysis
An analysis of the business benefits, risk of inaction and return on investment for each value frame.
This step will be conducted in active collaboration with the client.
Value frame analysis & planning
The
design of a specific value frame, based upon findings from an
information audit. This includes identification of lifecycle stages for
each group of information. This step defines the following to deliver
the value frame:

- Post implementation considerations
Value frame delivery

of specific value frames, in accordance with an agreed project plan.
This step concludes each value frame with the following:
