The Future of Capture Technologies

1 Nuance Conference Barcelona Dec 3rd The Future of Capture Technologies Doug Miles Director of Market Intelligence AIIM 1

2 The Opportunity: Information is the world s new currency.

3 But amidst this opportunity, these are the kinds of things we hear

4 The Reality: Our file servers are out of control and no one can find anything.

5 The Reality: Information is leaking out of the organization at every turn via devices that weren t even invented when we put our systems in place.

6 The Reality: The volume of stuff we are trying to manage is rapidly spinning out of control.

7 The Reality: Maximizing our SharePoint investment is proving more difficult than we thought.

8 The Reality: Every time I turn around, the business has implemented some new application that we didn t even know about in IT.

9 The Reality: As the CEO, I can t believe we are not getting more value out of the money we spend on technology.

10 Welcome to the era of Information Chaos.

11 How did we wind up here?

12 1 Consumerisation is transforming what users expect from applications and how we deliver them.

13 2 Cloud and Mobile are creating an expectation of anywhere, anytime access.

14 3 The Changing Nature of Work is forcing organizations to think flat and agile, not hierarchical and slow.

15 Managing Information Chaos managing the volume, variety and velocity of information and content created by these three disrupters -- is THE business challenge of the next decade.

21 Paperfree..the use of paper in business for records and correspondence should be declining by 1980, 1975 and by 1990, most record handling will be electronic...global consumption of office paper more than doubled in the last two decades of the 20th century

22 You have to kick the paper out of the process! Paper reduction is part of business improvement campaigns: 75% yes Have a specific policy or maxim to Drive paper out of the business : 27% yes

23 Volumes Paper Records Volume of your paper records 42% Of orgs. increasing 34% Of orgs. decreasing 23

30 Why not paper-free? What do you think are the main concerns about work-flowed, paper-free processes? (Max THREE) 0% 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% 30% 35% 40% 45% 50% Signatures and legal admissibility are still the big bogies. Physical signatures on paper are obligatory Too much investment in scanning and capture needed The process workflow will be too inflexible for exceptions Legal admissibility will be compromised Prefer to write notes and amendments onto paper It s a major change/jobs may be lost Captured data will not be accurate, leading to mistakes Scanned forms may not be easily readable Documents and forms will be less reliably accessible than with paper filing Can t take work or reference documents home, on the train or out on site 30 AIIM 2013 N=426
