Internal Information Resources
Whether big or small, your business generates huge amounts of data everyday. Some of this data is placed in little manila folders and filed in large metal containers, static and unused forever. Some data is compressed into small balls and filed in small, round metal containers. Other data is diligently entered into your computer system where it remains dormant. Or worse, your company is not capturing data that could prove useful. Having huge, or small, pools of data locked in file cabinets or useless datafiles doesn't really provide solutions to your information needs. In order to utilize this data, it must be filtered, processed and organized. New tools need to be acquired and/or developed to meet the challenge of doing business in the information age. Technocrats can help you solve your data storage and retrieval problems by analyzing your information resources and focusing them to meet your information needs. We can help you mine your data and unlock its valuable potential.
