The Core Content Model at Mayo Clinic: Aligning Omnichannel Content Workflows
08/22,
Watch Jay Maxwell, Senior Director of Health Information at Mayo Clinic (mayoclinic.org), [A]'s founder Cruce Saunders, and [A]'s Master Architect, Joe Gollner, jointly demonstrate how content engineering and the application of a Core Content Model® (formerly Master Content Model) can be harnessed to address many of the content challenges faced by larger enterprises:
- Single-channel vs. omnichannel content lifecycle
- Multiple management and authoring tools that are redundant, ineffective, or not harmonized to work well with the other tools in the stack
- Inconsistent content structure resulting in management headaches and disconnected user experiences
- Duplicate content that creates risk of errors
- Author and end-user content findability problems
- Costly conversions between different parts of the workflow, different channels, and different systems
- Content collaboration hampered by organizational silos
- Reliance on copy and paste and other manual processes
- Content assets not future-ready
The initiative aims to apply structural standards across various sources and channels and streamline content authoring and management workflows. By collaborating to unify schemas across many content repositories serving multiple print and digital endpoints, Mayo Clinic and [A] are establishing a content operating model to empower the market-leading creator and distributor of trusted health guidance and information with orchestrated, sustainable, future-ready, omnichannel content flows.
