Executives come to the realization that their companies need an Electronic Document Management solution from many different angles. Some see Document Management software as the way to resolve overflowing filing cabinets. Some think Document Management software will save them if the need should arise for disaster recovery such as a fire or flood. Others believe Document Management is necessary in cases of eDiscovery due to compliance regulations in their industry or litigation requests. Many simply see Document Management as the solution to improved customer service. All are correct!
When David Smith, Vice President of Taycar Enterprises Inc., recognized his company's need for a Document Management solution, the circumstances were unique. A consultant drew a map on the wall of his conference room describing what happens to a document at Taycar. Says Smith, "When the map was complete, the question wasn't do we need Document Management, the question was which Document Management software should we buy."
