Information is Now Everywhere


Get Ready for the Internet of Things


Organizations are Already Struggling

“Our file servers are out of control and no one can find anything.”

“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 volume of ‘stuff’ we are trying to manage is rapidly spinning out of control.”

“Maximizing our SharePoint investment is proving more difficult than we thought.”

“Every time I turn around, ‘the business’ has implemented some new application that we didn’t even know about in IT.”

“As the CEO, I can’t believe we are not getting more value out of the money we spend on technology.”

Information is the oil of the 21st century, and analytics is the combustion engine,” Peter Sondergaard, Senior Vice President, Gartner

“War is 90% information.” Napoleon Bonaparte

"Big Data will spell the death of customer segmentation and force the marketer to understand each customer as an individual within 18 months or risk being left in the dust” Ginni Rometty, CEO, IBM

Customer Insights Quora uses Facebook authentication to gather customer insights from

Facebook profile, education, work history, friends, and likes Recommendation Engine

Amazon claims 35 percent of product sales result from recommendations. Many customers don’t know what they are looking for.

Search Quality Orbiz found that Mac users are willing to spend 30% more on hotels

than PC users. Mac users are therefore presented with pricier hotels first in the list, which increases Orbitz revenues.

Customer Churn Analysis In the first quarter of 2011, T-Mobile halved its churn rate in the

United States by predicting customer behavior. They analyzed historical and current data, extracting key data for decision making, and discovered hidden relationships and patterns.

Your Challenge is NOT the Technology


What are the biggest on-going issues for SharePoint in your organization? (Max FOUR)

Persuading users to manage and share their content in SharePoint and not elsewhere

Expanding the use of SharePoint for more business processes

Aligning governance, security and usage policies with other enterprise apps

Achieving uniformity of classification and metadata structures

Strategic decisions on integration with social, mobile and cloud

The user interface is still difficult

Maintaining and upgrading our customizations

Managing rapidly increasing storage volumes

Managing multiple content types

It’s too complex to manage and enhance

Keeping up to date with version upgrades

All of the above

0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60%

Example: SharePoint Utilization


Example: Growing Content Siloes

We have turned it off

We have largely replaced it with our ECM/SharePoint system(s)

It works alongside our ECM system(s) for working files

Some departments use ECM, some still use the file share

It is still one of our main repositories

It is the most dominant content store we have

We are now using cloud file-shares in much the same way as X: drives

How would you best describe the current status of your network file-share “repository” (X: drive)?


Example: Lack of Strategic Planning

Studies conducted by Doculabs and others have shown that more than 50 percent of content management implementations are failures – projects that either went over budget, or over time, or that achieved adoption rates that were dismally lower than the initial projections.

Why do so many content management implementations fail to deliver the expected benefits?1. Most organizations still take an overly tactical view

toward Enterprise Content Management (ECM).2. They don’t prioritize effective planning from a strategic

standpoint on how to realize returns on the investment.Source: Doculabs


The top problems that have affected ECM implementations... 42% Underestimated processes and org issues 31% Lack of training internal staff 30% Uneven usage – poor procedures and enforcement 30% Project derailed by internal politics 22% Underestimated effort to distill or migrate content 21% Excessive “scope creep” 19% Taxonomy or metadata concerns

Example: Lack of Education & Training


The Need for New Competencies

“Professional roles focused on information management will be different to that of established IT roles….An "information professional" will not be one type of role or skill set, but will in fact have a number of specializations.” Deb Logan and Regina Casonata – Gartner - CIO Alert: You

Need Information Professionals “The IT worker needed … for the future needs to be multi-skilled –

with a mixture of technical skills combined with strong business and communication skills.” World of Work, 2011

“Raw technology skills are of lesser importance than they once were. Now the ability to influence stakeholders across IT, legal, communications, marketing, and HR is of utmost importance.” Leslie Owens, Matthew Brown and Anjali Yakkundi,

Forrester


New Roles and Responsibilities

Gartner report “Prepare to Be an Information Leader”, Published: 9 May 2012 by Debra Logan and Mark Raskino“Through 2015, the demand for information professionals will increase by 50% year over year”


Allow the business to innovate your information management Identify opportunities Experiment and learn Innovate the business and IT

CSFs for innovation Questioning Observing Associating Networking Experimenting

Many executives realize that innovation must come from the organization, not just executives- Atlassian allows employees to take a

FedEx Day off, but this requires them to have an idea ready for discussion the next day

- Google allows staff to spend 10% of their time to innovate and be creative; 20% on projects of their own choosing; and 70% of their time devoted to their job role.

- Apple’s “Blue Sky” strategic thinking program gives a small group of employees a set time to work on projects outside their normal responsibilities.

Industry Feedback “If you work with your organization’s information or collaboration resources

and technologies, you’ll surely find AIIM a treasure trove of resources.” Andrew McAfee, Professor and author, Enterprise 2.0 and Race

Against the Machine "AIIM has a unique perspective on all things Content. Technology, trends and

customer adoption patterns are changing so rapidly that it is becoming impossible to keep on top of what is important to us - how will our customers adopt new technology in applying content to their business. AIIM has the community reach, interaction with vendors and ability to ask the questions that matter, which has allowed us to understand how content will be deployed, who will be responsible and how does it apply to critical business processes in the enterprise. No one else has been able to provide this industry perspective". John Newton, Chairman and CTO, Alfresco


“AIIM’s training programs are essential to anyone in Information Management. Without up to date training, systems and programs are set up — but may be at risk, in the long run, if developed by the under trained. The Information Management Industry as a whole is developing at the speed of light, so even someone like myself (a 23 year veteran) needs to refresh their training and stay on top of technology and advancement in trends to understand how to apply it. AIIM’s training programs provide this education.” TK Train, CRM, ECMp, MBA, Document Control Manager, Gambro

“Enterprise records management or content management projects are comprised of cross functional teams with various backgrounds and specialties. It is important to the success of such projects that interdisciplinary teams develop a common lexicon and understanding of key concepts as fast as possible to enable collaboration. AIIMs educational curricula serve this need quickly and excellently”, Jayne Bellyk, RIM Program Manager, Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LP
