QUESTION POSED ON: 17 July 2009
What kind of companies have implemented enterprise information management (EIM)? Is there a certain industry or company size that benefits more from EIM than others?

>
Many organizations have begun to realize that the data and information they create every day is a valuable enterprise asset. It is difficult to imagine any enterprise achieving its goals without pertinent information. Those with accessible and higher quality information will make more informed and more effective business decisions. This is as true for all organizations, regardless of industry or company size, since all enterprises need quality information to guide their decision-making and to provide optimum service to their customers. For organizations whose primary asset is information, this need is even more critical.
