ABSTRACT
ECM packages commonly provide an organization with a suite of business software packages covering functionality such as Document Management, Records Management, Web Content Management, Collaboration Tools, Workflow Tools, Scanning and Imaging, among other functionality. In addition to ECM offerings, many companies offer a modular approach to ECM, allowing an organization to purchase those modules that they require. For example, if an organization wanted to implement just Document Management then they would simply purchase just the Document Management component. Later the company could purchase the Records Management module. Alternatively, a company that may want to implement both Document Management and Records Management and Workflow at the same time would purchase these modules together. Other software vendors offer separate Document Management and Records Management solutions, whereas other companies offer complete EDRMS solutions in one complete package.
