About This Conference

The Document Management and Automation Conference will review what various government agencies and solutions providers are doing to create, manage, store, retrieve and archive the knowledge and records for a modern government agency.  You'll get various perspectives and lessons on how the development of increasingly effective technologies for office automation, content management, document control and document management has driven electronic integration in the federal workplace. Improvements in hardware and software design have been accompanied by exponential growth in digital processing and storage capabilities in recent years. What's next to come?

The pressures on the costs associated with advanced information technologies have further encouraged automation of traditionally paper intensive business processes. This information environment, characterized by a rise in computing power and a drop in associated costs, renders document control, management, and content management as effective tools in maximizing the performance of records management in federal applications.

In addition, there will be a special segment on the agenda focused on document storage. This segment will review how important it is for governments to effectively manage and store the overwhelming volumes of information they generate, as well as how to deploy these storage solutions throughout federal, state and local governments worldwide.
