Document Management | Information Governance | Intelligent Information Management (IIM)
As information professionals, we're constantly asked to do more with less. More data to manage, more systems to navigate, more stakeholders to satisfy—all while working with limited resources. Sound familiar? Here's what I've learned after 15 years blending web development, archival expertise, and information management: the real value isn't in being an expert in just one domain.

These efforts don’t scale. They don’t integrate. They can’t be governed. The solution isn’t a better model. It’s a better system structure. This article introduces seven architectural patterns that define how GenAI should operate inside business processes—especially those built around documents, forms, and structured decisions. These patterns are modular, repeatable, and designed for scale.
