5 Steps to Good Governance

In fact, nearly 75% of senior executives believe the volume of data that organizations deal with will increase at least threefold in the next two years1. And with more content comes a related challenge: information governance. It’s no small task to appropriately manage, govern, retain, and dispose of all this content. Legacy governance systems are expensive and difficult to manage, and manual processing is seldom up to the task. In fact, two thirds of organizations in an AIIM survey estimated that over 60% of their information sprawl was due to unstructured content2. When you have unstructured content spread across different systems, it can simply be too difficult to keep track of where content lives and whether you’re properly governing it.
