Many would say it goes even deeper than change and have been calling it a metamorphosis.

Guest Post: Joanne E. Novak from Konica Minolta Business Solutions. For the past 3 years, the Clerk of Common Pleas Court in Clark County, OH, Melissa Tuttle, has been utilizing a content management tool to automate her business workflows.

Organizations around the world invest a great deal of time and money to manage information. The expense of hardware, software, and facilities can add up quickly and costs the average organization somewhere in the range of 3.5% to 7% of annual revenue. So, if you have a $50 million company you can anticipate that you’ll spend around $3 million or so to manage your information every year.
