This ECM research writing combines and sums up

earlier exploration and coordinates the discoveries in a
concept centric way. From a neutral point of view, 68
articles were evaluated and categorized. A description of the
ECM domain was done; The main ideas and topics were
derived. Working definitions were included in the adoption,
refinement, and explanation of an established framework for
ECM research. Further, ramifications for exploration and
practice were drawn.
ECM research is still in its infancy in the current state.

needs to be done: There is little requirement for specialized
approaches, but instead for more examination centering a
nitty gritty reference model, ECM processes, the endeavor
viewpoint, and clients of ECMS. In general, there needs to
be more quantitative work done. Based on this paper, further
