Content is essential to all business processes and managing it is a challenge every organization faces. Content Management enables businesses to create, manage, share, integrate and deliver critical business information on demand. Various information types include images, documents, reports, e-mail, web content, e-records, multimedia, computer report output and more. The integrated, comprehensive content management portfolio assists organizations that must improve productivity, enhance responsiveness, and meet the demands of regulatory compliance.
Business users are empowered to create, publish and manage their own Web content by means of an Internet browser or even Microsoft Word. This enables the employees to realize the full potential of the corporate Web sites by using them as business tools for communication with customers, partners, and coworkers.
With a high level of functionality, a new rapid application development environment, production quality solutions sites, and prescriptive best practices, your organization can build and deploy powerful e-business Web sites in record time.
Selecting and implementing a content management system (CMS) will be one of the largest IT projects tackled by many organizations. With costs running into the millions of dollars, it is vital that the right CMS package be selected. Before identifying specific requirements, you must determine the business goals that will be achieved by implementing a CMS. These must also reflect the long-term strategies and directions of your business.
It should be possible to succinctly outline your business goals on a single page. Make sure these are well-understood and agreed to by all stakeholders before starting the requirements gathering process.
The CMS must provide a seamless and powerful environment for content creators. This ensures that authors have easy access to the full range of features provided by the CMS. The core of most CMS solutions is a central repository, supported by a range of tools for manipulating and managing the content.
We start a typical ECM implementation with an analysis phase where our experts gather information pertaining to the types of content, their structure, sources, the workflows behind the creation and approval of that content, delivery channels and their formats etc. This data is subjected to in-depth analysis and then the planning for Design & implementation is done. Design involves repository definitions, taxonomy designs, search engine integration, and integration with the application engines.
Our experts, based on their years of implementation experience, have identified and pre-designed some core aspects of ECM systems like templates, meta-data specifications etc. These are customized to the specific business needs and implemented in line with the organizational requirements. Availability of these standard components reduces the effort towards design & development of the ECM systems.
