Centralpoint provides you with a centralized robust taxonomy library for all of your organizations data. This easy to use and organic approach to content classification makes it easier to govern your information, while making it easier to find for your site visitors. Oxcyon considers your taxonomy to be the central nervous system of your organization's web-based applications. The better the taxonomy, the easier it is to manage your site, letting users find what they are looking for easier. Most organizations have just recently begun considering a taxonomy for the very first time.
Oxcyon will work with your team to help define and develop an organization specific taxonomy in which to centrally govern your data the way that it was meant to...in an organized way. Ultimately, taxonomy plays a crucial role within Centralpoint as well as your organization. A structured taxonomy can change the way your employees think and manage information.
A well defined taxonomy helps everyone...those that drive the content, and those in search of it...all in one fell swoop. More importantly, Oxcyon provides you the tools to manage it yourself...once developed. This is the key ingredient to a flexible, re-usable and scalable web architecture. Our services to your organization may include: |
An example of the taxonomy fields found in each module.
These taxonomies can be customized for each module (news, physician directory, etc.)
but can also consider crosswalks between disparate data.
