- CLF 2.0 Implementation
Since 1995, XIST Inc. information management consultants have provided web development, communication technology and design services to private sector and Government of Canada clients.
We continuously study emerging trends in information and communication technologies to help organizations make the best use of their information assets and improve service delivery.
Information Management Priorities Assessment
Project: XIST recently conducted a broad analysis of information management processes and technologies for an international organization. The purpose of this study was (1) to identify and isolate areas of highest need, and (2) develop practical recommendations to improve these priorities. Research was gathered through analysis of existing processes, development of custom surveys, and facilitation of private interviews with staff in Canada, Africa and South America.
CLF 2.0 Conversion Services
Service Offering: XIST has extensive experience developing web sites and HTML coding pages for numerous Government of Canada departments and agencies.

Dspace Customization
Project: XIST configured the open source software, DSpace (http://dspace.org), for a university library that required an institutional digital repository.
This open source digital repository solution was customized for the libraries’ purposes, including developing a graphical user interface to reflect the look and feel of the library’s web site UI.
Web 2.0 Planning
Project: XIST analyzed Web 2.0 services, technologies and practices for a Government of Canada department and outlined new opportunities that would support its core business activities. Research included interview sessions with staff, review of industry literature, and use of Web 2.0 services related to social networking, media sharing, social tagging, peercasting, syndication, blogs, wikis, and content mash-ups.
