Abstract
This IDC study discusses the key takeaways from the 2007 IDC/ARMA International
Information Management for Compliance Survey.
"IDC conducted this survey as a follow-up to the 2005 survey discussed in
Records Retention for Compliance: A Survey of Internal Stakeholders (IDC
#201459, May 2006)," says Vivian Tero, program manager for Compliance
Infrastructure. Tero adds, "There is a marked shift in the motivations behind
corporate investments in records management and information initiatives. This
shift is influencing technology spending priorities."
