Information workers would comply with document profiling, storage and retention policies if the requirements were made easier. So say more than half of the New Zealand managers surveyed recently by global content management solutions company Interwoven.
Approximately 52 percent of respondents said that streamlining the document lifecycle – which includes the creation, management, archiving and disposal of documents – would result in increased levels of compliance.
Email management is also looming as key issue. Email volumes continue to grow like Topsy. Ninety-two percent of local respondents reported that up to three quarters of their documents are now emails.
Email management is the top focus among Auckland organisations, with 73 percent currently involved in specific projects. Down in Wellington, 66 percent of organisations surveyed said facilitating collaboration is their key focus.
