Abstract
Report Synopsis
We are now in the second wave of Document and Records Management, with many
organisations that implemented DRM systems a few years ago now looking to
replace or roll out their systems to a wider audience. The provision of
solutions built on top of DRM systems has greatly extended the capabilities of
DRM so that organisations are now able to bring together information from
multiple sources - structured data as well as unstructured information - to
complete tasks initiated by the DRM system.There are two approaches to DRM:
one is to deploy an Electronic Document and Records Management (EDRM) system
that focuses mainly on DRM and workflow; and the second is to implement a much
larger Enterprise Content Management (ECM) platform with additional
capabilities such as Web Content Management, Business Process Management, and
Digital Asset Management. The ECM vendors have also been much more proactive
in creating vertical and horizontal solutions that sit on top of their
platforms.
