There is a difference in talking and communicating, just like there is a difference in data and information. Data is raw and unprocessed and has limited usefulness. Information is data with relevance and purpose. IT Pro Portal brought this topic to our attention in their article, “What is effective Information Management?”
Information management is a field of expertise, a business function responsible for managing information regardless of format. Data and information are just as valuable as any other organization’s asset. With the proper policies in place, it is important to enforce the belief that all employees are responsible for capturing and managing information properly and reliably.
It is important to choose the right partner in technology, especially when your data is in their hands. Access Innovations is known as a leader in database production, standards development, and creating and applying taxonomies.
