Why is it important?
Vendors often offer solutions designed to provide them with maximum returns while not always giving satisfactory results in the management of unstructured data. Tagging data is not necessary when it is filed properly....when unstructured data has been given structure through descriptive techniques that are similar if not identical to those used in archival endeavors. Why this has not been seen earlier by records managers is a mystery.
