We’ve all heard the horror stories about businesses getting fined massively for not being able to find content, whether it’s structured or unstructured. As board members are increasingly held responsible for the content and IT systems in place, e-Discovery (or eDisclosure) is now absolutely a board level conversation. And this is where Enterprise Content Governance plays a vital role.
Enterprise Content Governance is the act of ensuring your content is structured and controlled so that it enables the business to minimize Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), reduce exposure to compliance risk, maximize worker productivity and protect the organization’s key knowledge assets. Simply put, Enterprise Content Governance is the process of not only achieving, but maintaining good content quality.
With increasing varieties of content being used as evidence in a civil or criminal legal case, multi-national enterprises should prepare themselves for potential e-discovery requests. Yet according to Forrester, two-thirds of businesses consider their e-discovery strategy reactive rather than proactive.
A reactive approach won’t sit well with the courts. To comply with discovery of electronic records you must produce records in a timely manner, not something done easily reactively. With ever growing volumes of content, e-discovery can be time-consuming and expensive if you’re not prepared.
Enterprises need to be ‘litigation ready’ and the board needs to be instigating that conversation. By utilizing ECoG offerings, large businesses and Governments worldwide can implement content management and content compliance policies within an infrastructure of best practice methods – optimizing corporate knowledge, whilst reducing company exposure to legislative risk.
