Most of the costs in an IT Organization are salary costs. Time is money. App Overview helps you lower costs by saving time.
If you work in an IT Organization, pay attention to how much time is spent searching or exchanging information about your Software. This includes searching through code, e-mails and notes as well as meetings with many Team members, phone calls, white boarding and writing e-mails. And consider the somewhat low quality of information that comes out of this, because it is usually gathered quickly, minimal in nature to get completed before the next meeting or task, and sometimes communicated erroneously. Additionally, there is no place to capture this information, so it will most likely cause a repeat of these activities in the future.
When you add all of this time up, multiplied by the salary and number of all of your Team members, and factor in employee turnover which can take years for an employees to get up to speed, and others to train them, you may find these research and information sharing activities account for somewhere between 50%-75% of your cost of Software.
Having a robust, centralized repository of knowledge eliminates the majority of this time, as answers that are robust and fully documented can be found quickly. And as new information is learned, it can be easily captured so as time goes on, the need to rely on others for information is continually reduced.
