What is alarming about this statement is that while most employers are aware that their employees have a wealth of knowledge and are responsible for the success of the most critical tasks in the business, these same employers are not aware of how easily this knowledge can be lost. That same employee holds the key to the successful transfer of knowledge to the next generation of staff or cross-training. If one key employee is lost for any reason to an organization, the "tribal knowledge" is gone forever.
When we first introduced the concept of documenting a company’s procedures and capturing "tribal knowledge" some of our clients were skeptical and questioned our process. They soon discovered our unique process is comprehensive and non-invasive to the productivity of the organization. Additionally they realized the end result is a "tool" that can be used to:
The Executive Management teams at our clients have recognized the importance and R.O.I. of documentation. Our clients represent many industries including Aerospace, Food and Beverage, Health Care, Marketing, Manufacturing, Pest Control and others.
We invite you to see how we add economic value and protection to an organization on multiple levels, and why these organizations now have operational documentation.
