Taxonomy Strategies LLC is an information
management consultancy that
specializes in applying taxonomies,
metadata, automatic classification, and
other information retrieval technologies
to the needs of business.

Forrester Research has published a report on taxonomies, "How to Build a High-Octane Taxonomy for ECM and Enterprise Search Systems", which is available for purchase. The report was written by Leslie Owens, who interviewed our founder, Joseph Busch, during her preparation of the report.

See our new case study on the Oracle web taxonomy.
