Iron Mountain Inc (NYSE:IRM), ended its Wednesday’s trading session with -2.82% loss, and closed at $31.65.
Iron Mountain Inc (IRM) declared the results of the landmark studyi, “Mining for Insight: Rediscovering the Data Archive,” an IDC white paper, sponsored by Iron Mountain. The results confirm every executive’s worst nightmare: Organizations of all sizes and across industries are drowning in data, unable to effectively mine their data archives for key insights that could ultimately improve business outcomes. However, the findings also indicate that a subset of organizations are in fact successfully leveraging their data archives and the benefits are impressive – as much as an additional $10M in revenue from streamlined IT and customer service operations.
The research reveals that organizations with a well-defined data archive process stand to realize value from two potential avenues: cost savings and added revenue from monetizing archives. On the savings front, more than half of the organizations polled realized $1M or more in savings over the past year from risk mitigation and avoidance of litigation, with the top 21 percent reporting savings of more than $10M. Similarly, 44 percent of organizations reaped $1M or more in savings stemming from reduced operational or capital costs, with the top 18 percent capturing more than $10M.
More striking is an organization’s ability to draw new revenue from an effectively managed data archive. While 39 percent of companies surveyed benefited from an additional $1M or more in revenue, the top 15 gained more than $10M. On average, companies polled saw an additional $7.5M in new revenue streams from their data archive.
