Enterprise Search
A Core Competency for the Information Age

There is a perennial discussion about the ‘information glut’ or overload. Whilst precise figures are difficult to measure, a number of surveys have concluded that an information-based worker is spending between one and 20 hours each week searching for information. This act of searching is nonproductive time – time wasted that could be spent more effectively putting the information into use. It is estimated that about 60% of labour spend is related to ‘information work’, which is no longer the sole domain of the so-called ‘whitecollar worker’, with many ‘blue-collar workers’ also handling and processing information. Field workers and those employees, whose jobs bring them into direct contact with customers and the general public, regularly have to answer queries and obtain information.

Butler Group Strategy Briefings are high-level, business-to-business events that bring leading IT suppliers and solution providers together with senior-level decision makers from end-user organisations.
