Information Mobility - The Future of Your Business

Mobility, mobile phones - information mobility includes the world of mobile technologies. But it’s so much more than that. What is information mobility?

*It’s being able to digitize decades worth of records, so you can find what you were looking for on your tablet.

*It’s going to bed each night comfortable knowing that your IT infrastructure has the latest protections from hackers and viruses.

*It’s waking up at 5 a.m. in a hotel room half a world away and being able to access your company’s shared drive.

*It’s being able to transform your paper and digital documents into any format you need, and then back again whether on the go or at the office.

*It’s using big data systems to index, archive, organize, and understand your historical data to glean insights that could inform future decisions.

It’s about having the technology you need, understanding the new world of work, and knowing how to cut through the noise to have anywhere, anytime access to your critical business information.

That’s information mobility. And in today’s changing world, it’s what your business needs to succeed. 

Today, we finally have the technology for businesses to enjoy full information mobility. Such as video conferencing that lets you talk to someone face-to-face in real time. Or digital records management that’s revolutionizing the way doctors treat patients, giving them immediate access to a patient’s medical history and helping to save lives. Or multifunction devices that can print tens of thousands of documents in the blink of an eye. And of course, mobile devices like smartphones and tablets.

We are still in the mobile industry’s infancy, and yet, we have already seen just how they have changed the way we work. Business apps have given us the ability to automate processes that used to take hours, giving workers more time to concentrate on projects that directly affect a business’ bottom line. Tablets have become de rigueur for everything from email to notetaking. And people now have anytime, anywhere access to their work. 

Information Mobility - It can change everything

Having the technology you need? Good. Understanding that actual human beings drive your business? Wonderful. Now, how do you make information work for you?

Because when you think about it, information is at the heart of everything we do. Every business, no matter how big or small, is driven by information and how we access, use and share it in this new information economy. It’s the basis of every project we attempt, every business venture, every innovation. Information is at the root of it all. But not just data. Information. Useful data. Wading through the hayfield to find that one needle that could change everything for your business.

Effectively managing your information – finding what’s important and being able to quickly act on that information – is what separates successful businesses from failing ones. And having information mobility is always being one step ahead. 

 So, how does my business get information mobility? The answer is as unique as your business.

Because one size doesn’t necessarily fit all. An enterprise-level company isn’t going to have the same needs as your typical small business. Every business is unique, but all share the same need – to make information work for them.

In general, your business needs three things:

*Technology that lets you stay connected, and gives you the ability to access, use and share information in the format you need it in – whether that’s paper or digital, video or text.

*An engaged workforce whose needs, workstyles and idiosyncrasies are understood, to better create processes that give them the best chance to be successful.

*Information that is securely and safely managed throughout your entire company.

For what goal? To make things easy. To help your business grow. To make information work for you. That’s information mobility. Do you have it?
