Enterprise knowledge search (RAG)

We design an enterprise knowledge search environment that connects scattered work documents and rules and finds answers with sources you can check.

Scattered documents coming together into one knowledge base

Before any answers, we build a knowledge base you can trust and search.

RAG is a way of having a language model find relevant sources in your organization’s documents and connect them to its answers. We don’t stop at collecting documents. Within your workflow, we also design who can see which information and how the sources of an answer are checked.

LLMs and RAG are use cases KPS proposes. We first validate, in a pilot (proof of concept, PoC) with limited data, whether they apply to your work and how the model should be set up.

The more scattered the materials, the longer it takes to find answers.

If this sounds familiar

  • When material is plentiful but slow to find

    We prepare the rules, manuals, and reports scattered across departments and systems so people can search them by question.

  • When current and old documents are mixed

    We manage each document’s version, creation date, and owning department as metadata and use them to set search priority.

  • When sources and access permissions matter

    We review with you how to show referenced documents in answers and connect them to your existing permission structure.

We design it all, from document cleanup to access and review policies.

Knowledge asset assessment

We look at the format, quality, update cycle, and duplication of the target documents to set a scope that suits RAG.

Collection & cleansing pipeline

We collect documents and databases, split them into units, and set up the metadata that search needs.

Search & answer experience

We design the search method for work questions, how sources are shown, and the follow-up question and feedback flows, together with the screens.

Permissions & review policy

We define what each user can view, how sensitive information is handled, where answers are limited, and where staff review is needed.

We validate with a small question set, then expand into operations.

  1. We narrow the questions and materials

    We start with frequent work questions whose results are easy to check, and with representative documents.

  2. We validate search quality

    We evaluate whether the right documents are found, whether the sources are sufficient, and when answers should be limited.

  3. We connect it to work screens

    We build the flow of questions, source checks, feedback, and staff review to fit how people actually work.

  4. We set update and operating standards

    We define document updates, quality checks, usage log reviews, and the improvement cycle as specific operating tasks.

Project deliverables

  • Analysis of knowledge assets and user question types
  • Document collection, cleansing, and update structure
  • Evaluation criteria for search quality and answer sources
  • Policies for permissions, limits, and human review
  • PoC screens and a proposal for moving to operations

The exact scope and deliverables are confirmed in early discussions.

A few recurring questions and key documents are enough to start.
