This imbalanced behavior results from the all-powerful project schedule, senior management edicts, and business community pressures. To keep a balance of tactical and strategic objectives, common-sense operating management principles tuned for ECM shared service organizations should be part of a manager’s monthly accomplishments list.

Electronic Records Management (ERM)
The findings from our latest research on Electronic Records Management (ERM) show that in most organizations, electronic records are still taken less seriously than paper records. Responsibility for applying good records management practice to electronic records would seem to reside in the IT department rather than in the records department, and even where good policies exist, they are often not monitored or enforced. Having said that, an encouraging number of organizations are homogenizing their electronic and physical policies and practices, and many are moving to an all-electronic model, linking their repositories together to improve the legal discovery process and enhance operational efficiency.
