Information has been a digital asset for many years. Since 2002, more information worldwide has been stored digitally than physically. At the same time, the volume of information within organizations is growing exponentially, making control and structure increasingly difficult to maintain. Fragmentation, fragmented systems, and lack of ownership hinder effective use of information.
At QA Consulting, we believe it’s time for a fundamental shift. It’s not the document but the content that matters most. This shift requires a new way of thinking and working: organizing information around meaningful content, independent of form and format, supported by content-centric platforms and smart technologies.
A future-proof data strategy is essential. This includes strengthening interoperability between systems, improving metadata structures, and promoting data-driven working throughout the organization. Only then does information become a strategic asset for better decision-making, collaboration, and public accountability.
