[Sigia-l] Building an Information Architecture Team

[Samantha Bailey]

Hi,

I have worked on several teams that had multiple IAs--all on large scale
projects (typically redesigns).

On one project we had the following roles:
Lead IA: oversaw the classification work from top-down perspective
Interaction designer: worked on interface elements for applications
Indexers: developed controlled vocabularies and applied meta tags

On another project we had these roles:
Lead IA: oversaw the classification work from top-down perspective
SME (subject matter expert) IA: we had 4 of these, one for each major
segment of the site

Hope this helps.
sb
