TAXONOMY CASE STUDY:SNC-Lavalin Infozone Taxonomy Project Joseph A. Busch Project Performance Corporation November 15, 2010
What We Did • Defined a metadata and taxonomy framework (Fall 2008- Spring 2009) • Overall fact finding • Community building (IM Interest Group) • Metadata specification and high-level taxonomy • Taxonomy governance documentation SNC-Lavalin Infozone Taxonomy Project
Why Build the Business Taxonomy? • Managing knowledge • Understanding information and knowledge within SNC-Lavalin, and surface it in user-friendly formats • Collaboration and communications • Allow employees and partners to connect with others within the company (collaboration), as well as deploy features that assist in creating essential one-way information flows (communication in the “my SNC-Lavalin” way) • Task completions • Instead of using the Business Taxonomy just to find things, people use the Business Taxonomy to do things (find applicable procedures so as not to duplicate existing ones) SNC-Lavalin Infozone Taxonomy Project
