Almost... ORM is watching what people talk about you (or your company) in internet. SEO is optimizing the sites for better position in search engines driving more traffic.

They are quite different services, online reputation management can involve lawyers and crisis negotiators who might eliminate negative information without involving their webmasters and SEO people who are part of a last resort solution of burying the negative stuff with new positive content.

We can say ORM has done by SEO. So ORM is the part of SEO. Without SEO we can not do ORM.

Online Reputation Management is more about Managing the reputation online. where good reviews are put up on the forums and social networking websites. Whereas SEO is all about increasing the website rankings on the search engine.
