CONTENT LOGISTICS

Content Logistics describes the provisioning of information using different channels to pursue corporate goals. This task is covered by Information Supply Chain Management and depends on the company-specific application structure as well as on the controlling of the enterprise-wide data flows.

The DNA of content is shaped by the four business perspectives employees, company, market and client/user. Changes that happen in these perspectives inevitably lead to changing requirements for the content. Ideally, content adaptation is implemented in real time, ensuring continuous up-to-dateness of relevant  information. The movement of content follows the basic rules of logistics: from procurement over preparation to distribution. Content Logistics ensures that these processes work smoothly and effectively in order to be capable of flexibly adapting to changing business perspectives.
