Solass delivers
Solass delivers knowledge solutions into
some of the
world’s largest and most successful companies.
These organisations have shown that large savings can be
made by deploying a system that acquires, manages and shares
knowledge. The ever-increasing complexity in all areas of
business means that companies are now more dependent than ever
on their experts. By improving the ways in which expert
knowledge is used, your company can become more competitive and
reduce its business risk.
This site has plenty of resources which you may find helpful
including Case Studies, a free
White Paper
and a high level overview of the
PCPACK solution.
People and their Knowledge are your most important asset
Organisations often say that people are the most valuable assets
in their business. It is their expertise, built-up over
many years of experience, that allows decisions to be made and
actions to be taken. A
knowledge acquisition and management solution will ensure
full and effective use of this expertise.
All companies are dependent on their experts. Experts create
intellectual assets such as the documents, policies, procedures
and systems that enable the business to operate. They act as
gatekeepers to those assets. Experts are sources of knowledge
for other employees, clients and suppliers. However, experts
are not always available to pass on their knowledge. Some are
too busy to have enough time to share their knowledge. Others
leave the company or retire. The knowledge of experts, so vital
to the company, is often under-utilised, inaccessible and lost
completely from the organisation. Such problems impact on the
efficiency and competitiveness of the company.

Benefits of Knowledge Management
Contact us today to find out how a knowledge acquisition and
management solution from Solass can:
-
Overcome the problem of expertise residing with a few
key experts and enable more effective distribution of
knowledge and information around the organisation, resulting
in more productive employees and a faster transfer of
skills.
-
Enable multiple experts to establish best
practices across the organisation and provide a highly
effective means for new starters to learn the skills they
require.
-
Reduce
the problems associated with losing key experts and relieve
pressure on your experts, allowing them to get on with what
they do best - creating intellectual capital for your
company.
Affordability
Any
company from a few employees to the largest multi-national can
afford to secure the knowledge of their experts.
The cost of deploying a knowledge acquisition and management
solution is related to the size of the group in which knowledge
is to be acquired. For most organisations this is a one-time
investment of approximately 3% of the annual staff cost of the
group in which it is deployed. The solution can be delivered
group by group and as it spreads around the organisation
individual groups can be linked together into one or more
company-wide knowledge bases.
While
the costs of a
knowledge acquisition and management solution are secured by a
one-time investment, the benefits are long-lasting and will help
to preserve the future of your business.
