From the Paper:
"Some refer to the process of measuring awareness as an information audit (Dobson, 2001). This audit determines where information comes from in an organization, where it goes, how it is used, who manages and shares it and who may process information (Dobson, 2001). An information awareness or audit should be customized to an organization and focus on "awareness, relevance, usability and unmet needs" with respect to business information systems (Dobson, 2001). An organization may also need to assess how information moves within the organization (Dobson, 2001)."
