ARMA 2003: Boston: converging technology, knowledge, business, and information management; today's business challenges demand real-world information management solutions.


The world of records and information management (RIM) is changing so rapidly the traditional solutions are no longer effective or appropriate. New standards and regulations have emerged, making the management of records and information in organizations large and small, public and private, a much more challenging task.

Gain the Edge You Need to Succeed at ARMA 2003: boston

Organizations increasingly are seeking answers and solutions to the challenges of managing their electronic records. ARMA International's 48th Annual Conference and Expo--to be held October 19-22 in Boston--will feature more than 75 educational sessions, many of which will focus on two key aspects of electronic records management: e-records technology and solutions deployment.

Several of this year's sessions address the many facets of electronic records management. Sample topics include:

* E-mail Accountability and Compliance: Issues, Trends, and Alternatives

* Understanding Obstacles to Effective Electronic Records Management

* Preserving Electronic Records: Research Findings and Practical Approaches

* Electronic Records Management: A Step by-Step Approach

* Enterprise ERM (Enterprise Relationship Management) An umbrella term with many shades of meaning over the years. It may refer to the management of information from any or all of an organization's customers, suppliers, business partners and employees. : A Bold New Strategy

v.intr.

That's just to name a few. Several sessions also will offer Canadian, European, and Australian perspectives on RIM topics--invaluable insight for every RIM professional working in today's increasingly global marketplace. Don't forget to check out the preconference programs, which include special tracks on RIM fundamentals and RIM legal issues. There is also a post-conference track discussing RIM issues in the financial serivices industry.

Continue your educational experience on the Expo floor, where you'll discover the hottest RIM tools and services being offered today. More than 150 vendors of RIM products and services will showcase their solutions and newest releases.

Expo attendees will find a broader range of exhibitors at this year's show. Two information management related organizations--KMPro Society and Disaster Recovery Institute--will be holding meetings in conjunction with the conference and expo. This means more exhibitors displaying knowledge management and disaster recovery-related products and services, which will benefit all RIM professionals in attendance. This is just one more reason the ARMA International Expo is the premier international RIM event!

Regardless of whether you're new to the field or a seasoned veteran, this year's program has something for you. Only at this year's conference will you be able to learn first hand from the lessons of other experienced RIM professionals, allowing you to solve your organization's RIM challenges faster and more efficiently.

The ARMA 2003 Conference and Expo is the best way to help you gain and maintain the edge needed to succeed and to help your organization stay competitive in today's rapidly changing environment.

When the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) discovered it had neglected to turn over 3,000 plus pages of records to the defense lawyers for Timothy McVeigh Timothy James McVeigh (aka Oklahoma City bomber April 23, 1968 – June 11, 2001), was a former American soldier who was convicted of eleven federal offenses and ultimately executed as a result of his role on the April 19, 1995, Oklahoma City bombing. , it got a big wake-up call The agency needed serious help with its records management program. Enter William Hooton, the agency's new director of records management. Hooton, who helped introduce digital imaging to the Internal Revenue Service in the 1970s and to the National Records and Archives Administration in the 1980s, has been responsible for modernizing the FBI's records management program by leading the newly established Records Management Division.

If you think managing e-mail is a challenge, you'll want to learn more about the next big communications technology--instant messaging, or IM. These words may bring images of AOL (A division of Time Warner, Inc., New York, NY, www.aol.com) The world's largest online information service with access to the Internet, e-mail, chat rooms and a variety of databases and services.  "buddies" to mind but the reality is that few applications, with the possible exception of e-mail, have caught on as rapidly as IM. There is an enormous promise for the use of IM as a business tool because the technology can speed communications, foster collaboration, and reduce the amount of e-mail in our inboxes. But how do we deal with it as a record? Concerns about IM center around the difficulty of controlling it and how to manage security and compliance requirements Compliance requirements are a series of directives established by United States Federal government agencies that summarize hundreds of Federal laws and regulations applicable to Federal assistance (also known as Federal aid or Federal funds).  within organizations that use it. deSouza, founder and CEO of IMlogic Inc., will present real-life applications of IM as well as address the challenges and solutions of IM as a record.
