The education industry is traditionally a paper-intensive, document- and process-driven environment. Areas such as student registration, admissions, financial aid, individualized education program (IEP) management, human resources, and accounting all center around the flow of paper-based processes. For large school districts and distributed college campuses, establishing a comprehensive, institution-wide ECM strategy is essential if all of the potential gains are to be achieved in cost containment, compliance, collaboration, and continuity of business operations. Yet the decentralized decision-making processes typical of large educational institutions make such a large-scale implementation challenging. Success is usually achieved through pilots and smaller-scale projects which, once successful on a departmental level, can then be expanded across the campus.
