This study would take a longitudinal approach to studying Enterprise Content Management (ECM) on small and medium enterprises (SMEs). For this topic, the researcher would be considerable flexibility. The researcher could look at one particular content management strategy across multiple companies, or the choices that a few companies make when considering ECMs (case study research). It also offers flexibility in the context (e.g. in China, Europe, America, UAE, etc.) because there is limited research on the impact of ECM in this field.
