to
thinking if they are the same thing. Is the 'content' in Enterprise
Content Managment the same as 'Information' in Records and Information
Management? Our department is called the Records and Content Management
Department...would it have been the same thing if we called ourselves
the
Records and Information Management Department?"
In that context, "content" and "information" are NOT the same.
Enterprise "content" management attempts to address the management of
all digital and physical information assets from the perspective of the
company, and this would include maximizing access while minimizing
duplication and recreation of data between systems/repositories (among
other goals). Records and "information" management is primarily
concerned with the value of information as records (e.g., retention,
authenticity). ECM would like to incorporate RIM as a sub-category; RIM
would not be an umbrella that covers ECM.
One woman's opinion, anyway.
