The processes have been formalized, in knowledge work, many of the processes are formalized. We like to think knowledge workers spend all day "problem-solving" but in reality they spend all day finding out what procedure should be followed in what situation.

There’s a lot to question about content based business models in a time when there’s easy access to lots of content. But most content is me-too – and the value proposition for that will go down.
