Enterprise Content Management


Enterprise content management is a formalized means of organizing and storing an organization's documents, and other content, that relate to the organization's processes. It encompasses strategies, methods, and tools used throughout the lifecycle of the content.
 
AIIM firstly defined five ECM components and technologies:

 

  • Capture. Collect paper documents or electronic files and information into a consistent structure for management.
 
  • Manage. Document and Records management, according to the organization’s document retention policy.
 
  • Store. Temporarily store information that isn't required, desired, or ready for long-term storage or preservation.
 
  • Preserve. Long-term, safe storage and backup of static, unchanging information.
 
  • Deliver. Enter information into other systems (such as portable media, or formatted output files); or for readying information, such as by converting its format or compressing it, for the Store and Preserve components.
 
Enterprise Content Management combines analytics, collaboration, governance and processes with anywhere, anytime access to deliver value to your customers, partners, and employees. When used effectively, even complex content becomes your greatest business asset.
