Information Management
A method of using technology to collect, process and condense information with a goal of efficient management. The primary technologies needed are contained in a set of modeling tools that either have or interface to a production-worthy repository where the information is stored and managed. The repository and tools must be capable of receiving information in a "top-down," "bottom-up" or "middle-out" evolutionary manner.
In today's knowledge economy, organizations that can't properly utilize their information assets risk serious failure. Information management is an emerging field that is concerned with:
- The infrastructure used to collect, manage, preserve, store and deliver information
- The guiding principles that allow information to be available to the right people at the right time.
- The view that all information, both digital and physical, is an asset that requires proper management.
- The organizational and social contexts in which information exists
