In the UK there is a growing demand for electronic records management technology (ERM). This demand is bringing together content/document management and records management principals into one unified product. ERM will provide you with efficiency gains from improved information handling and retrieval and longer term benefits from a well-managed corporate knowledge base.
ERM will support the development of a corporate filing structure to which records are classified, manage the integrity and authenticity of the records once they have been declared as such and control the disposal of records no longer required through systematic retention scheduling. Once a document is made into a record, these systems ensure that they are not edited and are destroyed through a formal audited process.
In essence, ERM will manage all the content of an organisation whether in electronic or physical form. The Public Records Office have drawn up a list of approved ERM software products, two of which are supplied by ImageFast.
