Document Management | Electronic Records Management (ERM) | Enterprise Content Management (ECM) | Information Security
Too often, we look at documents as just pieces of paper or digital files that contain information. We often forget to consider the value of that document. Some documents are assigned value based on time to write (like a very large document) or potential fines if done wrong (like a regulatory or compliance document). But every document has some value.

Electronic Records Management (ERM)
In a digitally transforming business environment, neither Records Management nor Information Governance is at the top of your executives' list of priorities. Instead, business leaders are making time -- and making way -- for tools and techniques that execute processes nimbly and on-demand for improved customer experience and competitive edge.

Electronic Records Management (ERM) | Healthcare
Unfortunately, I’ve had a few recent encounters with our healthcare system. As you would expect, I paid attention to the recordkeeping process. The spectrum ranged from paper to born-digital and has me thinking about my health records in a new way.

In my current role as Manager of Records Services at the Atlanta Housing Authority (AHA), I am responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the records management and archives section of the agency. In addition, I serve as the Product Owner for our Document Management Automation Squared (DMA2) project. Our DMA2 project encompasses many aspects of electronic records management, including: providing new SharePoint sites, selected migration of records from old SharePoint sites and shared drives, classification, and disposition of electronic records in these repositories, deduplication of records, and training and outreach.

Electronic Records Management (ERM) | eDiscovery
My role as the Director of Litigation Support and Records Management at the A&E Television Network is to get the word on records management out into the actual company so that everyone can start using those actual principles. At A&E, we have a tremendous amount of data that we are trying to go through. We are trying to reduce the scope of actual discovery and not expose ourselves to litigation risk.

Electronic Records Management (ERM)
In my profession, I feel like I’m constantly fighting the same battles over getting clients to destroy their older records that no longer have value for the company. I often come across these old, dusty storage rooms, or offsite storage accounts, filled with boxes and files. Usually, in one of these scenarios, there are no lists that would tell us about the actual contents of the records. One option is to do a sampling and a risk assessment to just get rid of everything. This approach is often met with resistance.
