In 2009, what is the main business driver leading you to invest in document and records management?
1. Compliance
2. Cost Savings
3. Operational Efficiencies
If you answered, “B. Cost Savings,” you are correct. Compared with recent years, cost savings has taken a clear lead over compliance as the main business driver for investments in document and records management, according to AIIM’s State of the ECM Industry 2009 report. Other findings include:
- 28% of organizations would take more than a month to produce documents for a legal discovery process.
- Records managers are often left out of the equation. In 36% of large organizations, IT manages the SharePoint rollout with no input from the records management department. Another 14% admits no one is in charge and it’s completely out-of-control.
- Paper documents are still much better managed than electronic files. SMS/text messages, blogs and wikis are largely off the corporate radar in 75% of organizations. Their lack of inclusion in the corporate archive is a major risk.
