Equiniti ICS and Steria secure Europe's largest EDRMS contract

10th Septemeber 2009

Equiniti ICS and Steria have successfully completed the roll out of one of the largest EDRMS projects in Europe to the Northern Ireland Civil Service (NICS). The solution was rolled out to over 15,000 civil servants in the first 10 months. Since then, around 2.5 million documents have been saved to the system, delivering a significant reduction in the use of paper, substantial cost savings and improved records management procedures and access to files.

Equiniti ICS was involved in the installation, configuration and set-up of the centralised EDRM (Electronic Document Records Management) system. The solution based on HP TRIM keeps a record of unstructured data such as emails and working documents. It has also enhanced organisational flexibility necessary to support potential restructuring, increasing the opportunities to share information.
