Document & Records Management
At some point, every specialist must complain about how their colleagues and clients “just don’t understand” what they do. But a particularly common version of this complaint today is the “recordkeeper’s lament”: Why don’t IT projects take record keeping requirements into account with new systems? How will we find records from these systems in 10 years time? Don’t these people know we are subject to record keeping legislation?

In my time in this business (enterprise content management, records management, document management, etc.) I have been asked to help with a ‘shared drive problem’ more times than I can remember. This particular issue is analogous with the paperless office problem. Thirty years ago when I started my company I naively thought that both problems would be long gone by now but they are not. I still get requests for purely physical records management solutions and I still get requests to assist customers in sorting out their shared drives problems.
