Greetings, 

 

Cohasset Associates is pleased to invite you to participate in the 2009
Electronic Records Management Survey co-sponsored by ARMA International.
This is the sixth time that Cohasset and ARMA have teamed together to
measure the key issues associated with the "current" state of electronic
records management.  In the past, the results of this survey have been
very influential - senior management at many organizations have used the
data to assist in accelerating the implementation of electronic records
management programs and Federal judges have used the findings in their
speeches. 

 

One of the survey's strengths has been its measurement of progress over
time.  Much improvement has been achieved, but they last survey clearly
showed there still was much to be done. 

Your participation in this survey is therefore very important to
continue the survey's commitment to quality and service to the RIM
community.   Simply click on the URL below to go to the Cohasset web
site where, in just a few minutes, you can complete the survey.

Your participation benefits all RIM professionals because the survey
results provide senior management with authoritative up-to-date survey
research that: 

 

*         Defines key issues that records management professionals are
seeking to address - particularly relating to the life cycle management
of electronic records, 

 

*         Details the ways in which current records management programs
need improvement "to get the job done", and 

 

*         Identifies the significant risks that exist when organizations
do not have senior level commitment to achieve "best practices" in the
management of critical information assets.

 

As a follow-up to this survey, ARMA will co-sponsor a White Paper
prepared by Cohasset that provides a comprehensive examination of the
survey's results - including trends over time based on Cohasset's five
earlier ERM surveys. 

 

The White Paper will present a "call to action" to senior management and
thereby encourage greater focus to protection of the organization's
records and information assets.  When published in July, the White Paper
will be available to everyone without cost. 

 

Cohasset and ARMA believe that, with a heightened awareness of the
issues and the risks, senior management will provide stronger leadership
and greater support to improve management of electronic records.  

 

Take the few minutes required to participate - and do it today.  This is
a unique opportunity.  The 2009 ERM survey is now live and will be
available until 9 p.m.  Eastern, April 29, 2009.
