Advanced Technology Support for Information Management at Friends of the Earth

چکیده
We report early results from a project to study the application of advanced technology to enhance information management in a medium sized enterprise where the collection, analysis and dissemination of information are key business processes. Our two-year TCD-funded project is a collaboration between University College London (UCL) and Friends of the Earth (FOE), a research and campaigning organisation with 65 full time employees and a turnover of about 3.5 million pounds. We explain our strategy for re-engineering information management at FOE and present three example projects which demonstrate the application of innovative IT solutions to problems associated with fundamental working practices.
