Enterprise Knowledge Structuring

Enterprise documents support human work, compliance and historical records. Folder hierarchies, PDFs and wikis can remain useful, but extraction, versions and terminology may need attention before retrieval.

Poor RAG results can come from extraction, indexing, search, permissions or generation. Diagnose those stages with representative queries rather than assuming document structure is the only cause.

This guide uses Microsoft’s RAG design guidance and document-level access controls to explain preparation and evaluation options. The examples illustrate design choices; their results depend on the corpus and task.
