Government entities of all sizes from the Federal Government to the smallest of Municipalities are under pressure through regulatory and citizen demand to provide access to information and enhance services. New legislative mandates and reductions in force and tax revenue have resulted in various departments having to take on greater workloads demanding they do more with less than before. The recent threats and challenges of terrorism and potential Homeland attacks has placed the additional burden on Government to guard itself by opening communications across multiple agencies, secure information and still maintain its citizens' right to privacy and access to information.
Docubase Electronic Content Management (ECM) solutions enable government agencies and departments to reduce operating costs and eliminate operational inefficiencies by streamlining the capture, managing, and controlling the distribution of information in electronic format. Whether information is currently stored in paper or electronic form, even E-mail, a Docubase ECM solution enables you to manage this information securely and control access at the enterprise, group or user level. In addition, the unique storage method employed by Docubase provides disaster preparedness for you in that each electronic file contains its index information allowing for simplified reconstruction of an entire database from the back-up files.
