AIIM: Association for Information and Image Management
AIIM, the Association for Information and Image Management, is a nonprofit organization that develops and publishes standards that detail enterprise content management. Headquartered near Washington, D.C., United States, AIIM standards, because of the extent of global interconnectivity, are used throughout the world, most readily seen through its influence on the ubiquitous PDF file format. AIIM also serves as the administrator for the U.S. TAGs (United States Technical Advisory Group) to ISO/TC 171 (International Organization for Standardization/Technical Committee) and to all of its subcommittees, as well as holding the position of Secretariat for the entire ISO/TC 171. Standards from AIIM are available both individually, directly through the ANSI webstore, and as part of a Standards Subscription. If you or your organization are interested in easy, managed, online access to standards that can be shared, a Standards Subscription may be what you need - please contact us at: [email protected] or 1-212-642-4980 or Request Proposal Price.
