Jack,
Believe me I'm not trying to rain on your parade but these things have all been done before.
My gosh, my little firm integrated PCDOCS with PeopleSoft about three years ago. Look through FILE, DCTM, HUMC web sites and you will see integration with all the big names... PeopleSoft, SAP, BAAN, Oracle, etc.
As I've mentioned on the Altris thread more than once, I believe its a hopeless task for a small DM/imaging company to try to become a "universal offering". People want to buy solutions, not infrastructure. Its impossible for all but the biggest (and even then...) to be all things to all people. Altris, and others, would be best served by trying to dominiate particular markets. In Altris case they appear to have real strength in TDM, why not focus there.
The list of DM companies that have failed at being broad is pretty long...
Regards,
