Fellow Records Managers:

 

I am pleased to personally extend this invitation to members of the Records
Management LISTSERV to participate in the 2005 Cohasset/ARMA/AIIM Electronic
Records Management Survey. This is the fourth time this bi-annual survey has
been taken.  Members of the LISTSERV were very active respondents in the
2001 and 2003 surveys.  I trust the LISTSERV also will actively participate
in this year's survey.

 

ARMA International and AIIM are co-sponsoring the 2005 Electronic Records
Management Survey being conducted by Cohasset Associates.

 

Your participation is vital.  It will only take a few minutes. Simply click
on the URL below and it will take you to the Cohasset Web site to complete
the survey.*

How will you benefit from participating?  The results of this survey will
provide senior management with authoritative up-to-date survey research that

 

1.      Defines the key issues that records management professionals are
seeking to address - particularly relating to managing electronic records

 

2.      Details the degree to which current records management programs need
to be improved and provided with more resources "to do the job at hand"

 

3.      Identifies the significant risks that exist when organizations do
not have management comment to achieving "best practices" in the management
of one of the key corporate assets, its records

 

ARMA and AIIM also will co-sponsor a White Paper prepared by Cohasset that
will provide a comprehensive examination of the survey's results - including
trends over time based on Cohasset's three earlier ERM surveys.  

 

The White Paper is intended as a "call to action" to senior management,
encouraging them to focus on this issue's importance to their organization
and provide the support and resources to enhance their organization's
information assets.  The paper will be available free of charge on the
Cohasset Web site in July. 

 

Take a few minutes to participate today.  And help "get the message to
senior management."

 

 

 

 

Regards,
