Project Description:
The World Bank is in the process of migrating from home-grown document
management solutions to a COTS document and records management

focuses on a subset of the World Bank’s content – specifically, the

challenges.
· Opportunities:
· Substantial planning, design and configuration work has been done to
support document and records management in anticipation of this project;
· Key set of quality improvements have been identified and targeted for
the migration;
· Challenges:
§ The move from a home-grown application to a COTS architecture requires
rethinking and transformation of basic information architecture components;

improvements it will be necessary to track and review corrections,
transformations, and improvements;
§ A four-stage migration process is envisioned to address the
improvement, the transformation and the implementation.
