What is it?

The MAPSYS Collaboration MAP is a professional consulting service designed to provide direction in improving organizational effectiveness and efficiency by harnessing the collective knowledge of the organization and facilitating its use by employees, partners and customers.

Studies show that while 80% of IT budgets are spent on structured database systems, only 4% of an organization’s data assets are housed there.  16% of an organization’s data assets are unstructured data in the form of spreadsheets, Word documents, etc.  80% of an organization’s data assets reside only in employees’ minds.

MAPSYS can help with a thorough analysis of the myriad options available for successfully utilizing these assets. Through interviews with your staff, MAPSYS can assist you in creating a document that identifies messaging, document management, teamwork and portal initiatives, alternative approaches to address them, an initial implementation plan and a scope of effort to execute the plan.  The plan also includes training approaches to make you self-sufficient.
