Infos

Information doesn't just provide a window on the business,
increasingly it is the business. The global economy is moving from
products to services which are described almost entirely
electronically. Even those businesses that are traditionally
associated with making things are less concerned with managing the
manufacturing process (which is largely outsourced) than they are
with maintaining their intellectual property.

Information-Driven Business helps you to understand this
change and find the value in your data. Hillard explains techniques
that organizations can use and how businesses can apply them
immediately. For example, simple changes to the way data is
described will let staff support their customers much more quickly;
and two simple measures let executives know whether they will be
able to use the content of a database before it is even built. This
book provides the foundation on which analytical and data rich
organizations can be created.

Innovative and revealing, this book provides a robust
description of Information Management theory and how you can
pragmatically apply it to real business problems, with almost
instant benefits. Information-Driven Business
comprehensively tackles the challenge of managing information,
starting with why information has become important and how it is
encoded, through to how to measure its use.
