‣ What AIIM does:
• We build information management roadmaps to help organizations turn Information Chaos into Information Opportunity.

‣ Thank you for the insights of Jason Baron, Else Khoury, Nick Inglis and Rich Medina at #AIIM14, which I found helpful and have tried to capture in this presentation.

The opportunity
Information is the world’s
new currency
The opportunity
“Every budget is an IT budget. Every company is an IT company. Every business leader is becoming a digital leader. Every person is becoming a technology company. We are entering the era of the Digital Industrial Economy.”PETER SONDERGAARD, GARTNER
But amidst this opportunity, these are the kinds of things we hear…
The reality
“Our file servers are out of control and no one can find anything.”
The reality
“Information is leaking out of the organization at every turn via devices that weren’t even invented when we put our systems in place.”
The reality
“The volume of ‘stuff’ we are trying to manage is rapidly spinning out of control.”
The reality
“Maximizing our SharePoint investment is proving more difficult than we thought.”
The reality
“Every time I turn around, ‘the business’ has implemented some new application that we didn’t even know about in IT.”
The reality
“As the CEO, I can’t believe we are not getting more value out of the money we spend on technology.”
Welcome to the era of information chaos.
How did we wind up here?
Consumerization is transforming what users expect from applications and how we deliver them.

The four drivers of consumerization
A computer An internet connection
A programming language and SDK
A friction free distribution platform
Forrester, James McQuivey, Digital Disruption
Cloud and mobile are creating an expectation of anywhere, anytime access.

“82 billion apps will be downloaded worldwide in 2013, and by 2017 there will be more than 200 billion downloads per year.”PORTIO RESEARCH
“IT cost savings and speedier deployment are but a brief prelude to the main story. It’s only the first 10 percent. The remaining 90 percent is what happens to the business itself.” JOE MCKENDRICK, FORBES
“In 45 seconds, you can go from never having heard a song to owning it. This is the era of collapsing purchase cycles.”AIIM ELC MEETING
“Global mobile transactions predicted to be US$241 billion in 2011 growing to more than $1 trillion by 2015.” YANKEE GROUP
The future is flat and agile, not hierarchical and slow.

Managing information chaos—managing the volume, variety and velocity of information and content created by these three disrupters—is the business challenge of the next decade.
Mancini’s Law…
Organizations are systems of information networks. They only operate effectively when there are clear and predictable information flows within and between these networks.

Mancini’s Law…
Organizations are systems of information networks. They only operate effectively when there are clear and predictable information flows within and between these networks.
50% annual growth in the volume of digital information means that these networks – and especially the points of connection between them – will become increasingly unstable.

Without intervention, the resulting #infochaos will threaten the viability of the entire system.

We must acknowledge the reality of “governance” in most organizations…

What the C-Suite Hears When We Say “Governance”
It’s good for you.It’s the right thing
to do.It will keep you out
of jail.You should do it.
We must clearly and simply define governance…

Manage Information, Not Devices
‣ Who can use this piece of information?
‣ What can they do with it?
‣ When can they do it?
‣ Where can they use it?
We must address cloud concerns straight on…

‣ Loss of control by customer over technology infrastructure / loss of governance
‣ Possible loss of control over location of data
‣ Concerns about segregation of data
‣ Data retention, destruction
‣ Rights to data
‣ Data security
‣ USA Patriot Act

We must understand why we have become information hoarders…

‣ Organizations keep non-required electronic content forever because:
• Classifying content (to determine what to keep and what to purge) is manual and expensive
• Content worth preserving is mixed with content that should be purged
• Legal -- and others -- are afraid of wrongfully deleting materials (spoliation)
• Additional storage is inexpensive, which makes it easy for corporations to buy more storage and defer addressing the problem

The Methods to Attack the ProblemNick Inglis has it right…The File Room
Method
Look at all informatio
n
Identify what
needs to be
retained
The Delegate Method
Everyone looks at
their informatio
n
Identify what
needs to be
retained
The Keep It All Method
Don’t identify
what needs to
be retained
Keep everything
, indefinitel
y
Records Categorizatio
n Method
Leverage classificati
on for records

Auto identify
what is a Record
Advanced Computing Methods

We must speak about governance in terms the business understands…
INFORMATION CHAOSINFORMATION OPPORTUNITY
BUSINESS BENEFIT
Mobile means information leaking everywhere
Governance occurs regardless of device
Employees and customers work on their own device
Systems of Engagement and Record misaligned
End-to-end process synchronization
Processes transparent to customers
Information coming faster than it can be digested
Analytics automatically categorizes and disposes
Static information now at rest put into motion
The “business” circumvents IT
IT spend aligned with opportunities
A new business/IT alignment
More silos than ever—and new ones in the cloud
Governance occurs regardless of location
It doesn’t matter where information “lives”
We’re spending too much on technology
Cloud opportunities to save on legacy
IT shifts from a cost center
to value creator
