The ECM Tug of War
Users• Easy to Learn• Easy to Use• Easy to Share• Email & Office Integration• Enterprise Search
Enterprise IT • Secure• Compliant (RM)• Simple to Integrate• Upgradable• Cost-Effective
Why? / Why Now?
• New US Data Center

• Finding documents for a specific client/matter
• Information discovered through client audits and ISO certification

Share Case Study
Where to start?
• Recognize the project is going to take time
• Decide if Fileshares will be used in the future
• Gain executive / management support, cannot just be an IT project
• Prepare a process for handling the requests going forward
• Identify strong project manager
What is required?• Engage multiple groups: End Users / IT / Risk
Management / Records
• Plan for how to identify materials where we can’t identify owners
• Understanding the Risk Management aspects of the project
• Planning the life cycle management of the data (and what does life cycle management even mean?)
• Assisting end users through the transition
Critical Considerations
• Allow end users to continue with work-in-process, smoothing the transition
• Identify how end users will reach the materials
• Structure allowing for quick determination how materials relate to a client or matter
• Security for all the materials
• Ability to apply retention policies to the material
• Process for creation of new folders to follow
Personal Spaces
• All folders named by network ID
• All folders secured - full access to only the user/owner of that network id
• All folders are in one large list, no separation by office
• A new security group created with Domain Admins/small subset of SD with full rights to share for creation/deletion and maintenance
Client_Data
• Top two levels of folders can only be created by SD/Admin
• Top level folder name will be the 6 digit client number, including leading zeros. The description shows the whole client name when you hover.
• Second level folder name will be the 6 digit matter number, including leading zeros. The description shows the whole matter name when you hover.
• Users can create any number of subfolders below the second level folder that windows allows.
• Security on folder will match the iManage workspace security which enforces ethical walls or specific client or matter needs.
• Folders will not be created for Client 000001 or 009999
• Top department folder is available to department management
• Office folder is limited to the local department members
• Users can create any number of subfolders below the second level (office) folder that windows allows.
• A new security group created with Domain Admins/small subset of SD with full rights to share for creation/deletion and maintenance

Share Case Study
How to make the move?
• Start with the easy things
• Introduced process for requesting new folders
• Shut down the ability for people to create new top level folders
• Work with end users to move existing materials into the new structure
• Clean up folders connected with departed users
What are the next steps?
• Determine all the steps for archiving
• Start data disposition based on retention policy
• Let’s look at some examples
• And then we’ll return for a few more details on addressing issues.
Demo!
Simple: With the Tools I Use Today• Email Integration• Email documents into

Group Leader)• Automated Workflow• Tasks & Reminders
• “What I need, When I need it”
• Document Assembly (Clause Library, Closing Documents)
Simple Search• It isn't exactly Google, but it works as well. • Your search terms, our enterprise search.

• Simplify IT–Manage and Deploy– Configured, not Customized
Bringing Efficiencies to the Practice of Law• Autoclassification• Identify Document Type• Associate Metadata• Declare Record – Retention / Disposal
• Simplify IT• Easy to Deploy – Multiple Roles/Departments,
Multiple Offices, Multiple Geographies• Easy to Integrate • Easy to Upgrade – Configured, not Customized• Flexible – Cloud or Data Center
So…
It’s Time to Move.
