Return on Investment

DID YOU KNOW?
Knowledge workers spend up to 30% of their time searching for information — with much of it hidden, duplicated, or difficult to access. That’s nearly 12 hours a week of lost productivity per person.

At HJDesmarais Consulting, I help biotech and pharmaceutical companies reclaim that time.
By centralizing resources, streamlining access, and eliminating knowledge silos, I enable your teams to spend less time searching and more time doing what matters: making informed, timely, and strategic decisions.

TIME IS MONEY 

A conservative estimate of the annual cost of inefficient information searching for a 100-person organization:

100 employees × 2.5 hours/week spent searching for information × $50/hour (average) × 52 weeks/year = $650,000 per year

And that’s just the start.

Most organizations also carry the hidden cost of underutilized resources — subscriptions and tools your teams may not even know they have. Research shows that the majority of knowledge workers default to public search engines like Google, often unaware of the company’s licensed, authoritative resources right at their fingertips.

Now, factor in:

• The cost of mistakes made from incomplete or outdated information
• Unmonitored usage and missed opportunities for cost optimization
• Delayed decisions due to lack of timely, accessible insights
   

And the financial impact grows exponentially.

Investing in a smart, centralized knowledge management strategy doesn’t just save time — it protects your bottom line.
