How the planning service works
Metataxis has many years’ experience in designing information architectures, which typically consist of:
• Information inventories: Finding out what information your organisation holds.
• Information modelling: Describing the appropriate levels of information granularity and inter-relationships.
• Metadata and taxonomy: Defining the policies, processes, metadata and controlled vocabularies required to tag information to support findability.
• Information flows: Working out the flow of information items within your organisation.
• Findability: Creating a strategy for information retrieval and defining the search and browse techniques and tools required to support user requirements.
• Usability: Designing the visual manifestations of your content, including all the above.

Designing an Information Architecture for a cloud system such as Microsoft 365, SharePoint and Microsoft Teams is crucial to undertake at an early stage because there are many design and configuration decisions that need to be taken before the implementation starts.

Equal opportunity

Equal opportunity

We take equality and diversity extremely seriously and reflect it our policies and our working environment.
There is no gender or other pay gap - pay is transparent and all staff are paid the same according to their level (Director/Senior Consultant/Consultant).
Flexible working and working from home is the default. Within the bounds of meeting client requirements our staff are free to manage their time however best suits their needs.
By having a default working from home approach we ensure that our workplace is accessible to all. Any special equipment that is required to accommodate those with disabilities can be provided.
We have always been an organisation with a majority of female staff and of the three company directors during this time two have been female.
