Information Access
Your organization relies on information to make effective business decisions and drive competitive advantage. Your organization has millions of pieces of information in many different formats stored in various business systems, but it’s not organized by its business context. see here
Employees therefore spend huge amounts of t
ime trying and failing to find the information they need to make accurate business decisions, and end up making bad decisions with incomplete, out-of date or irrelevant information. This results in lost revenue, customers, productivity, and business opportunities.
In today’s challenging and dynamic environments, where you have fewer employees and resources, it is critical to have easy access to the information you need, regardless of format or location, in order to make the right business decisions quickly, with minimal investment.
Keyword Search is Guesswork
Using keyword search tools for information access isn’t the right solution, it’s guesswork.
1. Have I used the right keywords? Does the information even exist? You can never really be sure that you’ve guessed the correct synonyms for the information you’re searching for. Keyword-based searches return results that match the keyword exactly but they do not necessarily cover the intended search subject.
2. Have I got all and the latest information? Why do I have so many irrelevant results? Keyword-based searches use popularity-ranking algorithms which deliver results based on a combination of the most popular, the most linked to, and/or the most visited documents. While the search tool may find thousands of results, it may well not deliver the right results or all the right results, the latest results, or even the same results at different points in time. And many/most of the results that the search tool does find will likely be irrelevant. For example searching for “SUN” corporation’s products will result in many irrelevant references. Sifting through the multitude of search results in order to find the right information is unnecessary and time consuming, and financially wasteful.
3. Have I used the right syntax to find what I’m looking for? Complex searches often require users to define exact search queries, in technical terms, in order to instruct the software what to find and where to find it. But business users are not technical, and one syntax mistake and the search tool will not return the right information.
Users need a user-friendly business solution that understands the business context of the information sought, and can automatically correlate the right information from multiple systems, no matter the format or the location. This solution must also enable users to search for information using their own native business terms, not complex, technical queries.
