## Start here: _EPM_

Most organisations know what their processes cost. Almost none know what they are worth. These are the quickest ways into Economic Process Modelling and how LINQ puts it to work.

## Infonomics is the theory. _LINQ is the solution._

Doug Laney’s book Infonomics sets out an important reality: information is a critical business asset, so start treating it as one.

> “We are unaware of any other company that is solving the complex challenges of valuing Information Assets in the innovative way that LINQ is doing. We are very excited about the Information Flow Modelling solutions offered through a SaaS platform such as LINQ.”
> 
> Gartner, 2018

Economic Process Modelling, developed with Doug Laney, is the next step: if information has economic value, so do the processes that create, use and discard it.
