- Challenge
- Blue Hammock is a management consulting company with company headquarters in Pittsburgh and offices throughout North America. Blue Hammock specializes in Data Management, Business Intelligence, Data Quality, and Data Integration for major Fortune 1000 companies including Microsoft Corporation, Honda, Caterpillar, CBS, and Honeywell. The company’s consultants work on site at clients and get actively involved in the implementation of strategies designed by the group. With projects distributed across North America, employees have been clamoring for a document management system in order to manage a central knowledge base of company and project documentation.
- Solution
- KnowledgeTree is installed on a server running CentOS Linux at Blue Hammock’s headquarters in Pittsburgh. The application is available on the internet through a web browser for those with access rights so that Blue Hammock’s consultants can log on remotely and access their documents using KnowledgeTree’s intuitive web interface. In addition, the utilization of the KnowledgeTree Desktop application allows Blue Hammock’s remote workforce instant access to documenting and marketing materials.
- Result
- After finding KnowledgeTree on a Google search, the product was shortlisted and then selected. “We liked the ease and simplicity with which we were able to get up and running with KnowledgeTree”, says Carlson. “The implementation costs are reduced and a rapid uptake occurs when users are easily able to grasp how the application works without the need for an extensive training program.”
