For the past decade or so, Electronic Document and Records Management Systems (EDRMS) have been implemented to solve document and information management problems. However, when combined with suitable process management technologies, and a full understanding of compliance and corporate governance, EDRMS systems can be deployed to solve not only a company’s document and records management problems, but also provide business efficiency, mitigate corporate risk, meet regulatory compliance requirements, and ultimately provide a secure and stable business management platform. The implementation of an effective and powerful Electronic Records Management solution can provide the ability to manage complex document relationships through each phase of their existence whilst ensuring compliance with all appropriate legislation through the introduction of a controlled and centralised repository for electronic records.
Recently, email has begun to be addressed by the main EDRMS vendors, in terms of incorporating the management of emails as records in a compliant records management framework. Email, web based application interfaces, and web forms are at last providing a viable alternative to paper, and in turn are becoming a dominant feature in EDRMS systems.
