Overview
Designed and implemented a comprehensive enterprise content taxonomy for a Nordic technology company, making content significantly easier to find and manage for internal marketing and sales teams. Delivered a structured controlled vocabulary, faceted classification system, metadata schema, CMS implementation, and a governance model with editorial standards and review cycles to maintain classification quality at scale.
Who This Is For
Technology companies, financial services firms, manufacturers, or large B2B organisations with 1,000-20,000+ employees managing significant volumes of content across internal and external digital channels. Typically operating a CMS or knowledge management system where content is difficult to find, poorly categorised, and inconsistently tagged.
The Challenge
The organisation produces content at scale, but findability is poor. Employees cannot locate internal knowledge. Customers cannot find relevant product or service information. Content is tagged inconsistently, or not tagged at all. Multiple teams use different terminology for the same concepts. The result is content that exists but cannot be surfaced - invisible to search, invisible to AI, invisible to personalisation engines.
What We Propose
Taxonomy Audit & Gap Analysis - Assessment of existing classification, tagging practices, and metadata across content systems. Taxonomy Design - Structured controlled vocabulary, faceted classification, and hierarchical category design aligned to user mental models. Metadata Framework - Metadata schema covering mandatory and optional fields, controlled values, and tagging guidelines for each content type. CMS Implementation - Configuration of taxonomy and metadata within the CMS including tagging workflows, quality checks, and governance controls. AI & Search Readiness - Taxonomy structured to support semantic search, AI retrieval, and personalisation.
Why It Matters
Content findability - Employees and customers locate relevant content accurately, reducing search frustration and support costs. AI readiness - Structured, tagged content that AI systems can retrieve, rank, and surface reliably. Personalisation enablement - Metadata that allows the right content to reach the right audience at the right moment.
