FOR BUSINESS OWNERS · NOT MORE DASHBOARDS
What does a better decision deliver for your business?
You want a clearer view of revenue, profit, customers and time. Bedrijfsgeheugen helps identify what matters, choose the next improvement and verify the actual result.
Reduce waste
Find duplicated work, delays and critical knowledge dependencies. Estimated savings are not realised savings.
Prove improvement
Track what was proposed, approved, executed and verified against reliable source data.
Evidence matters: public portal views may contain sample data. Your own results appear only after authentication and source verification.
The way it works now
- The appointment is in one colleague's mailbox
- Data is manually retyped from one system to another
- The person who knows is on vacation
- No one can see afterwards why this decision was made
As it is
- The agreement is stored with the client, findable for everyone
- Once entered, information flows through to the rest
- Work continues, even if someone is absent
- Every decision has a source, an owner, and a date

POWERHOUSE · EVERYDAY BUSINESS STEERING
Beyond insights. From change to action and results.
A chatbot answers questions. A dashboard displays figures. An automation executes one predefined step. Bedrijfsgeheugen instead connects internal and external signals to your strategy and business context, helps assess impact and priorities, assigns actions and feeds measured results into the next decision. POWERHOUSE is the engine; better daily steering is the outcome.

Why this exists
Your people are not the integration layer between all your systems.
When colleagues have to search for information, re-enter it, find explanations again or wait for that one person who knows, value is lost. Bedrijfsgeheugen ensures that the right context is available at the right time.

Backed by sources
Make knowledge loss visible before you automate.
Not just marketing talk, but a combination of independent research and your own input. This way you first see where time, knowledge and duplicate work are leaking — and only then which intervention is worth it.
The calculator works with visible assumptions that you adjust yourself. External sources support the pattern; your figures determine the business case.
27% of the workday
In the European section of Microsoft's Work Trend Index, employees reported spending an average of 27% of their day searching for information.
Source · Microsoft Work Trend Index 2023 ↗55% experiences friction
55% of the surveyed knowledge workers say that it is difficult to find information, even when they know the knowledge exists somewhere in the organization.
Source · Atlassian State of Teams 2024 ↗50% recognizes overlap
Half of the surveyed knowledge workers worked on a project and later discovered that another team was working on the same thing.
Source · Atlassian State of Teams 2024 ↗30 min/day
The Bedrijfsgeheugen calculator deliberately starts with 30 minutes of search time per employee per day. This is an adjustable assumption — not a hidden marketing claim.
View the existing calculator ↗Calculation example · 25 employees
Calculate with your own figures →
30 minutes per day quickly becomes €16,927 per month in potential capacity.
25 employees × 0.5 hour × 250 working days × €65 hourly rate = €203,125 per year. Change employees, search time or hourly rate and the business case changes immediately.
Transparent calculation model: External research confirms that information friction is substantial. The euro outcome is always a scenario based on your own input and is not a guarantee of cost savings. An older McKinsey analysis also found that interaction workers spent approximately 19% of their time searching for and gathering information. View source ↗

No invented euro amounts per problem. The financial impact is calculated only with your employees, time and hourly rate.
Answers are scattered across Teams, SharePoint, mailboxes and people's heads. Bedrijfsgeheugen provides one source-based answer and shows where it comes from.

Detect critical dependencies before a key employee leaves and make handover concrete with owner and deadline.

AFAS knows something, Exact knows something and Teams knows something else. Bedrijfsgeheugen connects those events into one context and one follow-up.

Searching, overtyping, handover and manual follow-up seem small until you add them up across a whole team and a whole year. Calculate with your own numbers — not with a promised saving.

Additions that complete the platform
This is on the product roadmap.
These components are logically necessary to bring Bedrijfsgeheugen from strong portal to mature product platform. In this proposition I therefore explicitly put them on the roadmap instead of leaving them unmentioned.
Approval Center
Human approval for AI actions, sensitive changes and exceptions.
Data Lineage
From every important figure and answer back to system, field, document and change history.
Notification Center
One intelligent inbox for risk, action, error, change and deadline — with priority and snooze.
ROI & Impact Log
Record baseline, expected value, actual outcome and lesson learned for each improvement.
Role & Access Studio
Roles, rights, departments, external parties and AI access manageable from the portal.
Connector Marketplace
Standard connectors, status, scopes, last sync, error handling and self-service activation.
Solutions
Don't start with software. Start where the work gets stuck.
Bedrijfsgeheugen helps SMEs connect systems, secure knowledge and apply AI practically. We first choose the problem that demonstrably costs time, margin or continuity — and only then build.
PEOPLE + CONTEXTA process is only better if people can also execute it better.
FROM FRICTION TO FLOW
Don't automate just to automate.
We first show where people search, wait, retype or depend on someone else. Then we connect exactly the context needed to make the work simpler.
Signal→Context→Decision→Action
Stop with duplicate entry.
AFAS, Exact Online, Microsoft 365, webshops and other packages stay in place. We connect the data flow so information doesn't need to be retyped.
View system coupling →AI that fits your work.
From Copilot and ChatGPT to custom agents: first determine where AI truly adds value, then establish agreements on sources, access, transparency and human oversight.
View AI & governance →Stay visible without a content factory.
Use existing knowledge, customer questions and expertise to build a repeatable content process — with human judgment over what does and doesn't go public.
View AI-marketing →What's left when the owner leaves?
Make processes, systems, knowledge dependencies and risks visible before handover, investment or due diligence. So value doesn't sit only in people.
View due diligence & exit →Does this sound familiar?
The problem often sounds small. The effect compounds.
The planning sits in one head.A customer appointment is only in a mailbox.The same data is entered in two systems.Someone exports Excel every month to pull two packages together.AI is used, but nobody knows which source is reliable.When someone leaves, it turns out how much knowledge was never the company's.

FRESH PERSPECTIVE SCAN
From first impression to a concrete improvement agenda.
Assess twelve dimensions. In this prototype version you see directly how priorities, score and recommendation change.
OUR BELIEF
A business should not be dependent on what people happen to remember.
Entrepreneurs do not build a business to search for knowledge every day, re-enter information or wait for that one colleague who knows how it works.
We believe that business knowledge should belong to the organization itself. Findable when someone needs it. Traceable to a source. Connected to a customer, process, decision or action. And usable to work better tomorrow than today.
OUR MISSIONGive organisations time, clarity and continuity back by making knowledge, processes, systems and actions work as one.
People make it work.Software alone doesn't change an organisation.
The knowledge was there. Just not as one whole.
Customer agreements in mailboxes. Planning in heads. Decisions in meeting notes. Data in separate systems. As long as everyone is present, that seems to work.
As you grow, improvisation suddenly becomes a business risk.
When people leave, teams expand or a business is handed over, you realise how much context never became part of the business itself.
More software doesn't automatically solve fragmentation.
New tools add value when processes, ownership and data flows are clear. Otherwise you just create one more place to search.
That's why we built Bedrijfsgeheugen.
A connecting layer on top of what's already there. So knowledge flows, systems pass on signals, decisions are traceable and AI can work with reliable context.
The challenge
What slows organisations down.
The possibility
What replaces it.
01 · Fragmentation
Mail, Excel, spreadsheets and systems each tell a piece.
01 · Coherence
Context, source, owner and action are connected to each other.
02 · Personal dependency
A process works as long as precisely the right people are present.
02 · Continuity
Knowledge remains with the organization and can be transferred.
03 · Manual work
People search, copy and fix what systems don't convey.
03 · Space
Automation removes routine and makes exceptions visible.
04 · AI without direction
A quick answer without source or rights creates new risk.
04 · Reliable AI
AI works with known sources and keeps people in control.
Our principles
Humans remain in control.
Source above answer.
Understand first. Then technology.
Connect rather than replace.
Results above reports.
Fix and secure.
Technology can be smart. The approach must remain clear.
AI and automation take over work where that makes sense. People retain insight, choice and responsibility.
Important knowledge must be traceable back to source, date and owner.
No automation before it's clear where time, errors or dependencies arise.
Existing systems remain in place if they do their job well.
An analysis is only valuable if someone can do something with it and the effect becomes visible.
A solution must become part of how the organization works and learns afterwards.
Our vision
Companies that don't have to run faster to perform better.
We build organizations where knowledge doesn't disappear when people change, systems work together without endless retyping and AI helps people make better decisions without taking control.
A real Bedrijfsgeheugen doesn't just remember what was there. It helps an organization improve from what it already knows.

CASES & RESULTS
Not just what we build. Especially what changes in the work.
From less rework to better handovers and faster decision-making. These prototype cases show how Bedrijfsgeheugen reasons from problem to demonstrable result.
CASE 01
Order-to-cash without duplicate entry.
A familiar situation: customer information sits in CRM, financial processing in Exact, and exceptions mainly in people's heads and email.
Every handover requires new verification.
Duplicate entry, waiting time, and unclear exceptions make growth more expensive.
Context and systems become one chain.
CRM, Exact, work instructions, and owner are connected without replacing the core landscape.
Control without extra control work.
less manual work · fewer errors · faster flow

What if Peter leaves?
Two out of five rules on this page disappear. That's how it feels when knowledge isn't part of the company.
