Description:
Effective Records and Information Management (RIM) is critical for organizations seeking to streamline their operations and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements. This presentation focuses on best practices for leading successful RIM projects, particularly through the lens of a complex Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) implementation for a state government client.
Drawing from project experiences, the presentation will outline key strategies for managing RIM projects, including stakeholder engagement, risk management, and change management. Examples from the state government EDMS implementation will illustrate the challenges faced and the solutions implemented, highlighting the importance of clear communication, thorough planning, and adaptive problem-solving. Attendees will gain insights into overcoming common obstacles in RIM projects, such as data migration issues, user resistance, and integration with existing systems.
By the end of the presentation, participants will be equipped with actionable strategies and practical examples to lead their own RIM projects effectively, ensuring smoother implementations and improved outcomes in their organizations.
