Information Management Consulting Experts Since 1985
Access Sciences was founded in 1985 by library and information science professional Janice C. Anderson. She saw organizations collecting more and more information with no reliable way for people to find what they needed.
Our Founder’s Story
Drawing on her background in information management, Janice built a company dedicated to helping companies and agencies organize information, improve access to knowledge, and make better-informed decisions.
What began as a specialized consulting practice expanded alongside the changing needs of our clients. Starting with records and information management, Access Sciences broadened its expertise to help organizations govern information, support complex capital projects, and manage organizational change.
Today, Access Sciences helps organizations transform information into a strategic asset, enabling better decisions, stronger data governance, operational efficiency, and readiness for emerging technologies such as AI.
