Consultancy
NetworkedPlanet offer consultancy services not only around our products, but also around the use of topic maps in applications of all kinds. We are experienced topic map practitioners with many years of "in-the-field" experience in developing both tools and real-world solutions using topic maps and can help you in the architecture and design of both the topic map ontology and the applications that make use of it.
In addition, we can provide implementation skills based around our products. Our consultants can be used either to get the application written completely as a bespoke development, or to join your development team and help get the project started in the right direction.
We also rely on the skills and expertise of our network of partners to provide domain expertise, strategy, system design and system implementation.
