TheHealth and Safety Executiveis
improving information management with an electronic document and
records management (EDRM) system.
The HSE is deploying the Trim Context EDRM system from Tower
Software to support 3,400 users across 28 office locations.
LogicaCMG will incorporate the implementation as part of its
ten-year outsourcing agreement with HSE, and will simultaneously
undertake an enterprise migration to Microsoft Office 2003 and
Outlook that will encompass all text-based files, including
e-mail.
Richard Lewis, head of information management at HSE, said,
"This EDRM project has been driven by a desire to manage
information better across HSE. The rising popularity of desktop
tools has led us further away from print and a traditional records
management culture.
"As a consequence, information silos had started to appear. The
Trim Context system will allow users to find the information they
are looking for far more easily and derive intelligence from it. It
will also help us handle the large volume of incoming Freedom of
Information (FoI) enquiries we receive," said Lewis.
