DID® enables businesses to effectively manage their information, ensuring it meets business needs.

Data is constantly coming into and being generated by your business. It can seem overwhelming. What information does your business really need? How can it capitalize on the data it already has? Ensure the quality of its data? 

At the heart of the Digital Information Design (DID®) guidance is a simple, powerful model that enables businesses to optimize their data usage. DID provides a business information model, that organizations can use to identify and assess what best practices to use.  Providing guidance on how to build these best practices into a roadmap for your business, while retaining focus on the information needs of your business. The DID model will help you to assess the validity of the best practice(s) you use and identify the strengths and weaknesses in your approach. The model is independent of all other frameworks, including BiSL and BiSL Next which DID elaborates on. DID therefore offers impartial information about well-established frameworks, including COBIT®, ITIL® and TOGAF®, and provides advice on how to use their key features when designing business driven IT services. 

While the role of IT is to ensure information is stored and processed safely - effective business information management, which DID facilitates, gives an organization the ability to respond to specific business demands and make data driven decisions quickly. Improving business performance through more effective use of information.

DID training and certification will provide organizations and individuals with guiding principles and practices that lead to good business information management – with practical templates and examples. 

Certify your ability to:

  • Design information services that meet business needs, with emphasis on agility and accuracy. 
  • Gain visibility over data and its impact on your business 
  • Manage and control vital information and data
  • Facilitate a more productive interaction with IT
  • Help organizations achieve a better return on their investments in business information services
  • Improve integration of multiple frameworks and best practices.
