Katrina (Kat) Hagedorn: Description of Consulting Services
My consulting services center around information organization and information management. These include:
- designing information architecture for Web sites (organization and navigation)
- planning and developing appropriate content management systems
- creating suitable classification schemes and systems
- building controlled vocabularies and ontologies
- constructing and implementing metadata architecture
The following services can stand alone or be used in conjunction with the previous services:
- evaluating current information structures
- leading goal-setting meetings
- training individuals and groups on aspects of information organization and management
- preparing and running user testing
- holding writing workshops
- performing content inventories and analyses
- technical writing
- conceptual editing and proofing
My methodology weaves together an understanding of business objectives, strengths and limitations with an understanding of both the users of the system and current and planned content. Explanation of specific methodologies and examples of typical deliverables are available upon request. Please be aware that these are tailored to suit each particular project.
Rates
Normal billing rate: $800 per diem. Travel, hotel and meal expenses for on-site consultation are reimbursed by the client.
For short-term, definable projects (i.e., evaluation of a current classification system), a flat-rate fee is negotiated. For multiple-day consultation services, discounts can be negotiated.
