3 BUSINESS CHALLENGE By 2020 the digital universe the data we create and copy annually will reach 44 zettabytes, or 44 trillion gigabytes. 1 And in the typical enterprise, where 80% of all data is stored 2, the question is, is your organization maximizing the benefit of the knowledge in its information estate? Across your global enterprise, your data-centric, analytical knowledge workers, such as researchers, engineers, business analysts, reps, or software developers, could be benefiting from insights that exist in isolated, workgroup information catalogues and siloed databases, documents, policies, procedures and other communications. Obstructions to collaborative information sharing create knowledge gaps which often lead to redundant processes and lost productivity not to mention higher operating costs. When the free flow of information is restricted, new product development and launches take more time, issue resolution may fail to meet customer satisfaction levels, and work may be inadvertently duplicated. There s good news! You can break down the walls that divide disparate and disconnect information repositories and enable your community users to access the information they need with Iron Mountain s Knowledge Management strategies and solutions. HOW THIS AFFECTS YOU Less productivity and innovation as knowledge leaders have limited or no access to information Higher TCO as data from siloed applications are segmented into multiple platforms Slower, stunted development and delivery of products or services Lack of accessibility to data, especially when collaborating with global team members Loss of tacit knowledge capture due to lack of knowledge capture, employee turn-over, and poor knowledge sharing which leads recreating the wheel over and over again, poor findability, duplicated content, and poor user adoption 1 IDC.
