COS360° is a revolutionary assessment methodology developed by COS, Washington DC's largest consultancy firm specializing in workflow assessment and optimization. The COS360° Assessment measures six core areas - inventory technology, analyze usage, capture costs, understand culture, review workflow, and examine processes - to provide a comprehensive snapshot of a company's current environment and identify areas for improvement. It uses a non-invasive data collection tool to analyze technology and asset usage across networked and non-networked devices. The assessment delivers concrete, actionable guidelines to align all technology and business initiatives while helping companies lower costs, reduce environmental impact, and achieve sustainable working practices.
