The world’s top brands using Aware’s Contextual Intelligence Platform and Context API unify disconnected operational data from enterprise workflows, communication platforms, cloud data platforms and customer journeys for a single pane of glass into the business. COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Aware , the leader in contextual intelligence, today unveiled the industry’s first Context API providing developers with access to the platform’s rich strategic, organizational and risk intelligence to transform the employee and customer experience. A recent IDC report indicated that 85% of organizations that take actions to improve employee experience and increase employee engagement deliver a better customer experience, higher customer satisfaction, and higher revenues. But legacy systems lack an intelligent data fabric to understand "context at scale", a necessity for streamlining real-time decisions. Compounding the problem is the proliferation of hybrid work environments which has resulted in an exponential growth of unstructured data sets that existing systems simply can’t manage. Today, companies operating without connectivity, context and certainty lack the ability to answer the "why" when facing real-time decisions impacting the employee experience. "Delivering the perfect customer experience is viewed as the holy grail to accelerate top-line growth. An exceptional customer experience begins with the […]

Rolling out digital transformation projects involves navigating increasingly strict data protection regulations, while at the same time coping with risk and inefficiency associated with data silos and copy-based data integration. Today a pioneering national standard approved by the Standards Council of Canada has been published aimed at providing organizations with a framework to accelerate the delivery of digital innovation projects. The Zero-Copy Integration standard, produced by the Digital Governance Council and Data Collaboration Alliance establishes core principles by which CTO, CIOs, data architects, and application developers can set up digital innovation projects defined by increased control, efficiency, and collaboration. "By eliminating silos and copies from new digital solutions, Zero-Copy Integration offers great potential in public health, social research, open banking, and sustainability," says Keith Jansa, executive director at the Digital Governance Council. "These are among the many areas in which essential collaboration has been constrained by the lack of meaningful control associated with traditional approaches to data sharing." Zero-Copy Integration supports a project-by-project approach to steadily reduce an organization’s data silos, data integration, and complex code, and avoid the shortcomings of ‘rip and replace’ approaches that fail to accommodate pre-existing digital solutions and IT investments. Dan DeMers, CEO of […]

Digital Transformation & Operations The steps taken by law firms to engage their change management process to Plan, Build and Deploy new legal tech solutions are critical Change management is like a prism — depending on one’s frame of reference, it can mean different things. To technologists, the term often applies to strong development and operational practices; while those in legal generally relate change management to process examination, training, and implementation refinements. Regardless of your focus, effective change management is critical to a successful digital transformation. So, how can we demystify change management for various members of the legal profession and provide a framework for those in disparate roles to communicate effectively? One way might be to examine a case study. Let’s imagine a need where a law firm or legal software company desired to build a matter management system for a client whose legal issues are truly unique, thus requiring either significant modifications to an off-the-shelf software product or a customized software build. As we embark on this journey, we will identify three main phases of our case study: Plan, Build and Deploy . We will also define the key change management aspects of each phase as we […]
