NEARLY 40 YEARS OF TURNING CHAOTIC INFORMATION INTO VALUABLE INSIGHT

 

 

And it all started with a librarian

Access Sciences was founded in 1985 by Janice Anderson to fill an emerging need for information management and governance expertise. While our experience and expertise have expanded far beyond this initial area, we have stayed true to our principles and continue to be recognized as thought leaders in information management.

INFORMATION AND DATA ARE IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR. INSIGHTS ARE ALL ABOUT THE HORIZON. AND THAT’S WHERE WE’RE LOOKING.

Our Roots

In the early 1980s, Janice Anderson took her degree in library and information sciences and went to work for Brown & Root Engineering. She was charged with managing vast volumes of information for some of the world’s largest construction projects — on a global scale.

 

She quickly recognized that there was a better way for companies to manage and govern their information more effectively. So she did what many lack the courage to do on their own… She left to create something new. That’s how Access Sciences was born.

 

And for nearly four decades, we’ve enjoyed consistent success and growth by keeping one simple goal in front of us: taming information chaos to extract the most value from any client’s information assets. That goal, and that success, are the legacy of one very smart librarian.

Today

Today, we combine our experience with strategy, business processes, technology, governance, and change management to create intelligent information management solutions and provide best-in-class managed services, with a focus on the midmarket, Global 2000, and large government agencies.

 

As an employee-owned company and a Women’s Business Enterprise, Access Sciences’ employees have a vested interest in the success of our clients and in developing long-term, trusted advisor relationships. Our ESOP structure encourages collaboration and thought-sharing, which permeate our culture.

On the Horizon

As information growth and complexity continue to accelerate, we must continuously develop and evolve our services to adapt to our client’s ever-changing needs.

 

We have a three-step roadmap that includes substantial CAGR over the next ten years:

  1. Extend our base, and automate
  2. Enhance the capability and culture
  3. Innovate the business

 

And with the development of new services, Access Sciences’ employees remain challenged, professionally curious, and continue to add skills to their portfolios.
