It is not surprising when companies consider deploying a content
management system (CMS), they look first at establishing a technology
platform.<\/p>\n
But what they often fail to consider is the governance, or taxonomy,
that will enable them to reap the benefits of such systems.<\/p>\n
As a definition, content is all of a company’s stored knowledge, from
Internets and intranets to sales presentations, to the extensive
technical documents and other proprietary materials it creates. And,
in simplest terms, a company’s taxonomy is the skeleton from which all
content hangs.<\/p>\n
Gartner researchers note in their report Waves of Information
Disruption Due in 2003 that “to get value from the vast quantities of
information and knowledge, enterprises must establish discipline and a
system of governance over the creation, capture, organization, access
and utilization of information.”<\/p>\n
