Do you already have a RM database? or implementing one from the ground
up? If the latter then you need to determine what functionality you
want with a system. Do you want to create retention schedules, do you
want to track paper files (check in/check out), do you want to manage
electronic documents ie records that are born digitally and maintained
digitally? Do you want to somehow track what you have in offsite
storage? How many people will need access to the system and for what
purpose (access level assignments). Will all members of the firm use
the systeM? what are the hardware requirements? what are the system
requirements?
just a few questions one might ask of themselves before plunking down
the dollars
