Document Management: An approach to maximising your investment

Published: 2008
Type: Business guidance
Area: Document management

Summary

The uptake of document management solutions across all sectors in organisations around the world shows no sign of abating, as document management becomes an increasingly critical and pervasive part of the IT infrastructure.
A key reason for this is that virtually every operational activity within an organisation involves business documents to varying extents, and making the most effective use of these documents, integrating them into line of business applications and managing the wildfire growth of documents has become a challenge to most organisations.

Meeting these challenges through document management increases organisational effectiveness, reduces costs, makes regulatory compliance easier and more demonstrable, and gives an organisation a competitive edge. In today’s world, managing business documents is no longer an option; it is a fundamental requirement for success.

The third paper in the series, An approach to maximising your investment, is aimed at organisations that are already familiar with the concept of document management and have already bought into the business case for it. It assists those who are ready to embark on a new document management programme of work, or indeed already have a document management solution in place but have plans for further work in this area.
