Business Content Services

IBM Business Content Services is an integrated approach that can help you manage and control content created by shared workgroups across your organization. It bridges the gap between the simple management of business documents and a comprehensive Enterprise Content Management (ECM) infrastructure.

Business Content Services can use IBM connectors or the Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) standards to connect Microsoft SharePoint and Lotus Quickr document collaboration to market leading IBM ECM solutions. Business Content Services help you manage content to address your regulatory requirements, corporate governance mandates and legal discovery needs, as well as integrate it into your business processes.

With IBM Business Content Services, you can:

• Extend the ECM infrastructure to include business documents created individually and collaboratively, every day, across diverse and decentralized workgroups
• Enable search and access to documents in these systems across the organization
• Tap into hundreds of industry specific solutions built on IBM ECM and integrated with business processes
