Knowledge Management

Robert Abrams Consulting has helped clients organize and analyze their knowledge. We created a set of concept maps for a client in the power industry. This pilot project demonstrated how concept maps can be used to highlight key relationships in dense technical reports. We are currently building a customer relationship management system for a client in the industrial rubber industry. This customized set of inter-linked databases will allow this company's staff to access client contact information from several remote locations. For another project, we have organized thousands of pages of information in a specialized topic area. We also built the website that makes this information available to the public. We have led or assisted with statistical analysis of large datasets, such as analysis of standardized student test scores for a school system with about 100,000 students. We have an instinct for the structure of information (plus formal training and experience), so we can help you make the most of your knowledge.

Research & Evaluation

We have assisted schools with research and evaluation. We have experience working with public and private schools, both in New York and California. We primarily focus on educational technology, such as the implementation of laptop computers in schools. We have also worked with curriculum developers, such as the developers of a CD-rom curriculum on Environmental Health and indoor air quality. This evaluation used a combination of surveys, interviews and classroom observations to help the company improve both the software and the use of the software with the goal of taking the curriculum to market. If you need an outside perspective to help improve an educational technology project, contact us to see how we might be able to assist you.
