Enterprise Content Management (ECM)
AIIM's recent State of the Industry survey reported on deployment patterns of major ECM technology segments in end user organizations. A look at technology deployment patterns by the “depth” of the implementation—from tactical to transitional to strategic—provides insight into the way in which ECM technologies are typically deployed in organizations.

Enterprise Content Management (ECM)
Per some of our previous posts, here is the complete list of the 12 steps (although I hesitate to call this a "12 Step Program") to building an effective Enterprise Content Management (ECM) strategy. The information is drawn from the AIIM training program. Keep in mind that these "steps" are not necessarily perfectly sequential, and some "steps" recur. For example, step 8 talks about user involvement. Obviously this would be something that would recur throughout the project. But I think it's a pretty good checklist. We find in our conversations with end users that the thing that usually sinks a project is not being deliberate enough on the front end in clearing defining the business requirements, the technical requirements and how the project aligns with business priorities.
