Consulting
I help organizations of all sizes make complex content collections easy to understand and pleasant to use.
If the intended audience of your content can't consistently find what they're looking for and don't consistently understand what they've found, there's a good change you've got a structural problem. I can help you fix that.
I help organizations ensure that their content operations, the people, process, and technology they use to create content, and their content distribution, the structure, semantic relationships, and publication formats that allow content to be used and understood across audiences and contexts, are both aligned with organizational goals and capabilities.
Depending on your needs, timeline, and budget, there are several ways we can work together.
Project-Based Consulting
I work with organizations of all sizes to create structural and operational solutions that communicate complexity clearly, align business and user goals, and scale effectively over time. If you’re struggling to create and communicate information clearly in today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, we should talk.
Past project-based consulting work includes:
- Content Structure and Navigation Design for the World Health Organization
- Global Navigation and Home Page Design for Seattle Children's Hospital
Fractional Information Architecture and Content Strategy Leadership
Many modern information architecture and content strategy problems aren't isolated to a particular workflow, team, or tool. Not all systemic problems, however, justify adding full time headcount. Fractional IA and CS engagements allow me to provide strategic leadership and contributions across projects and initiatives over the long term.
Recent fractional information architecture and content strategy leadership work includes:
- Content Review & Approval Workflow Integration for Elemeno Health
- Structured Content Design and Development for Elemeno Health
Agency Partnerships
Design and development partnerships allow me to assemble capable and experienced teams for clients whose needs extend beyond my skillset, and allow me to provide complementary expertise on agency projects with information architecture and content strategy components.
Here is some of what previous agency partners have had to say about working with me:
What makes Andy so good at what he does is not only his design thinking and know-how (which are scary good) but the way he can articulate what he does to his audience. The skill of design advocacy is priceless and Andy has it.
Andy clearly has a passion for the intersection of technology and human interaction. He has a professional and comfortable demeanor that lets you know this isn’t his first gig. He is constantly researching the field, observing and evolving his practice.
Whenever you're in a client meeting with Andy, he's the smartest guy in the room, but with none of the ego. You realize it as soon as he starts asking questions or sharing his solutions. You know right away that he gets "it" and is thinking about the problem in ways that other people aren't.
