In today’s world, information is currency. Companies that can quickly capture, process and utilize knowledge gain a decisive competitive advantage. But what happens when valuable knowledge is buried under a pile of outdated methods? Lost time, missed opportunities and reduced profits are just the tip of the iceberg. Let’s take a look at what companies that continue to cling to old ways of organizing knowledge lose and how KBPublisher can be your lifeline.
Outdated methods: killers of your efficiency
Many companies still use archaic knowledge management methods such as:
- PDFs on desktops, letters in the mail, outdated versions of documents on shared drives - this chaos creates insurmountable barriers to finding information.
- Questions to ‘knowledgeable’ colleagues, endless email chains, phone calls - all of these things take up valuable time from your employees.
- Information is stored in employees’ heads, leaving the company vulnerable to valuable talent leaving and inefficient at scale.
- Even if a company uses a tool, it can be difficult to use, integrate poorly with other systems, and fail to meet user needs.
So what are the specific losses suffered by companies using these methods?
- Employees spend hours searching for the information they need, which reduces their productivity and causes them to postpone tasks.
- Inefficient information retrieval leads to longer turnaround times, slower order processing speeds, and poorer customer service.
- Time is money. Time lost searching for information directly affects the cost of working hours and increases overall company costs.
- It is difficult for new employees to quickly get used to the company, as there is no single organizational knowledge base where all the necessary information can be found.
- Incompetent answers and long waits for answers to customers’ questions lead to deterioration of their impressions and loss of trust.
- Lack of systematized knowledge makes it difficult to make informed decisions and can lead to missed business opportunities.
