Sometimes it seems ironic that while we have more data than ever, we may not have enough useful information. I suppose this is a modern day version of the needle in a haystack – too much hay makes it hard to find the needle.
A key premise of the Strategic Facility Guide approach is that we probably already know a lot of what we need to know, but it may not be organized in a way that makes it easy to see, understand, and use. A second key premise is that understanding how much more we need to know right now reduces the amount of additional information to obtain (making things faster, less expensive, and easier to see the needle with less “hay” to go thru to find that needle).
