Project Mobius writes on their blog 8 important factors any document management system should have:
- Establish an enterprise-wide approach
- Make process re-engineering part of the plan
- Identify champions among stakeholders in each department or functional group
- Plan for line-of-business extension and integration
- Encourage collaboration but control access
- Provide remote and mobile access
- Don’t forget to measure incremental process improvement and track ROI
- Develop a strategy with the flexibility to accommodate change by enabling integration with emerging technology
We completely agree with these 8, and feel that any organization that employs a document management system that does not employ all 8 of these steps is wasting resources on an inferior solution.
