Watch: Electronic Communication Policies and Procedures
Electronic
Communication Policies and Procedures: A 2005 Industry Study |
| Prepared by AIIM & Kahn Consulting, Inc. |
| This follow-up US study illustrates how email and other electronic
communications technology (including instant messaging, text-messaging,
email enabled phones, and wireless-enabled handheld devices)
are increasingly being used to execute and document major business
transactions and decisions. AIIM and Kahn Consulting, Inc. conducted
their first joint "Study" in Q3 2003, with over 1,000
respondents representing small and large organizations in the
public sector and all major industries participated in the survey.
This follow-up "Study" (which also had over 1,000
respondents) was jointly conducted in Q1 2005. |

The
Current State of Information Management Compliance
A Summary of Findings from User Research on Compliance and
Information Management |
| Authored by John F. Mancini, President, AIIM |
| The world of Information Management: Information technology
increasingly enables organisations to do things better, faster,
and cheaper. At the same time, 90% of the information that organisations
must manage is unstructured - information that does not neatly
fall into the rows and columns of a traditional database. Moreover,
unstructured information is at the heart of business processes.
Processes cannot be improved until this flow of information
is standardized, digitized, and managed. So, within organisations,
there is a constant push to rapidly deploy technologies to reduce
costs and improve processes. This is a world populated by the
IT departments and line of business managers within organisations. |

Back
to Basics: The Search for Efficiency and Compliance
A Summary of Findings from User Research in Six Countries |
| Authored by John F. Mancini, President, AIIM |
| Users are focused on the basics. Given 22 different possible
choices, the top three project interests among users for 2004
are Document Control (44%), Records Management/Archiving (42%),
and Information Capture (32%). These results were remarkably
consistent across the six countries. Document Control and Records
Management/Archiving ranked #1 or #2 in five of the six countries,
the only exception being Germany. Perhaps reflecting the greater
attention in the U.S. on compliance issues resulting from Sarbanes-Oxley
and from rising litigation concerns, American and Canadian users
ranked Records Management/Archiving as their #1 concern for
2004. |

Electronic
Records Management Survey
A Call To Action |
| Authored by AIIM and ARMA |
| Prepared to facilitate dialogue among stakeholders, this study
is about much needed operational changes related to the successful
management of electronic records.The survey research that constitutes
the basis of this study assessed certain key components in the
successful management of records: the degree to which these
practices are currently used in managing paper and film records,
and more specifically, the extent to which they also are being
applied to electronic records. |

| Email is an indispensable part of today’s business process.
However, there is a growing policy vacuum in organisations when
it comes to managing and controlling the use of information
technology. Although a vast majority of organisations use email
and other electronic communication technologies for real business
every day, too many organisations are failing to implement policies
designed to ensure that the technology is used properly and
that digital information is properly retained. At the same time,
Sarbanes-Oxley and the increased perception that email has important
legal and compliance implications are having an effect on email
management, with a majority of organisations planning to increase
the security of their email systems and implement new policies
to address the new realities. |
