Program Development
Comprehensive Program
A comprehensive program begins with performing Enterprise Mapping and a Governance Assessment. Once the current state is established, an IM program will be defined which includes: Information Architecture, Document Management, Records Management, Knowledge Management, Data Management, Privacy, Governance, and Technology Tools. The project plan will include Communications, Training, and Deployment plans.
Key Element Development
Pick the element of an IM Program that you want to focus on: Document Management, Records Management, Knowledge Management, Data Management, Privacy, Governance. We will create a project plan and implement (or revise) that element so that it fits into your existing IM program.
Governance
Perhaps you have jumped in with implementing an ECM software package, but need to wrap governance around the program. Let's create a strategy, policy, and standard at the top level and then additional standards for each element of the IM program. Additionally, we will establish a steering committee and compliance program.
Strategic Planning
Strategic Plan
A successful IM program starts with a strategic plan that creates the vision for the program. IM Visibility will lead your team to define your current state, establish your goals, and create a plan to achieve the goals. We will examine internal drivers, external drivers, top-level objectives, and resources. Most importantly, we will ensure that the IM strategic plan is in line with the overarching strategic plan for the organization.
Assessments
We will create an Enterprise Data Map and/or conduct a Governance Assessment. You will be provided with the results of the assessment along with a SWOT analysis and recommendations for improvement.
Benchmarking assessments with gap analysis are also an option.
Tactical Services
Technical Document Writing
Program implementation is well underway but you need someone who understands IM to write the governing documents. Let us ease the burden! We will develop policies, standards and procedures that align with the organization strategy so that requirements flow from your Center of Excellence through the IM program.
Engineering Projects Documentation
Engineering projects can generate thousands of documents. To be sure that all documents are brought into the system with the correct classification schemas, you need a solid workflow process. We will design processes to ensure your documents are captured and catalogued properly. We work seamlessly with your programmers to get this done.
Classification Schemes
Business and metadata classification schemes are critical for organizing information so that it can be readily located in a timely fashion.
IM Visibility offers consulting services for all elements of a comprehensive Information Management program for organizations of all sizes.
Whether you need to develop a comprehensive new program or need support for a few elements, we are here to support you on your path to Information Excellence!
