Abstract

Taxonomies are becoming an increasingly important tool for companies to effectively manage information, particularly in the business consulting environment, where information is considered a main asset and a key product. This paper describes a case study of developing a taxonomy system for a regional business consulting company. The taxonomy, consisting of 12 main categories and approximately 500 terms, was built based an the existing knowledge structure and information needs of consultants in a selected company. This prototype can be conveniently utilised and adapted by other companies in their efforts to develop their own taxonomy system.
