Death, Taxes, and ECM ...

Ensure longevity and prosperity for your business

Benjamin Franklin famously said that the only certain things in this world are death and taxes. Thankfully, as we greet another tax day each of us can be personally grateful that the other half of Mr. Franklin’s prediction hasn’t come to fruition (since you're reading this, we can make that assumption, anyway).

As we reflect on finances and longevity, it’s a good opportunity to assess our organization's durability. One of the best ways to be certain about the longevity of our business is by transitioning from paper processes to enterprise content management (ECM) and making our business models economically sustainable. But in terms of prosperity, here’s a little-known secret: going paperless simply isn’t enough to achieve optimal returns.

The post 8 Signs of a Lackluster ECM Implementation gives you some signs to look for to help you reevaluate the depth and breadth of your ECM system. These are the eight signs that indicate you’re not getting as much out of your system as you could:

1. You’ve gone paperless, but you haven’t implemented automation.
2. Data is not captured at the point of entry.
3. Knowledge workers are performing manual tasks.
4. You have no self-service options in place for customers or staff.
5. Lack of an enterprise view.
6. Lack of systems integration.
7. Failure to align IT with business objectives.
8. You don’t have a strategy to process exceptions efficiently.

The bottom line:

If any of the "Signs of a Lackluster ECM Implementation" apply to your business and its ECM system, you might be risking failure. Don’t be complacent with your ECM solution…make sure you’re getting the most out of your investment. By reevaluating your implementation and making the necessary changes, you can be certain you’ll have an advantage over your competition.
