Challenging Complexity in Information Management

Published

17 June, 2025

Information Management has become fiendishly complicated over the past 10 years, but wasn’t the promise of technology that it would make oversight over records easier?

This guide explores why this occurred, and how you can simplify your information ecosystem from the ground up: taking control of everything from invoices and emails, to confidential customer records.

Key takeaways

  • Too many systems – Research shows organizations are using more and more disparate systems to manage information, such as multiple siloed document management systems in various departments.
  • The financial cost – Unmanaged information management systems waste money, with shadow IT sometimes accounting for 30–40% of IT budgets.
  • Ever-increasing compliance risk – Data scattered across platforms increases compliance vulnerability. GDPR fines, such as British Airways’ £20 million penalty, highlight the financial cost even without counting the reputational damage.
  • How can I get started? – A five-step roadmap helps businesses audit, consolidate, automate, and train staff.
  • Real-world Benefits – A case study on Biostadt shows how streamlining invoice approvals led to improved compliance and operations.
