Reg Prentice on Simplifying Data Management for Design Firms
"The two most valuable things people have a design firm has is its people, number one. Right. That's obviously always going to be the case, but number two is really its history and its institutional knowledge, which primarily exists in the form of the information that's stored."
- Reg Prentice
