Electronic Document Management

Maintain complete control of all of the information that drives your enterprise.

Organisations generate a plethora of documents in the course of their business: internal procedures, training documents, contracts, user manuals, research and development reports, contracts, media releases, project documentation, sales proposals, strategic business plans, marketing materials – the list is endless. These documents represent significant corporate value to an organisation and contribute to the corporate knowledge base.

Often, documents are stored across a variety of locations, on networks, in email systems and on people's PCs. Staff are unsure if they are working on the most recent version of documents, work is often duplicated, unknown to the user, and documents can even be lost. Without effective management it is difficult for the organisation to effectively harness the knowledge that exists within these documents.

Electronic Document Management (EDM) can help maintain security, auditability, approval authorities, consistency, quality and relevance of all documents produced.

An effective EDM solution will ensure that your staff, customers and suppliers have easy access to the documents they need, they will know what exists, where it exists, and they can be sure they are accessing the latest versions.

And most importantly, the organisation has a complete audit trail of which documents were accessed, who accessed them and when. The organisation has control over all documentation, complete records of all transactions, accountability is assured and the organisation has the ability to capture knowledge as it's created.

EDM from Objective is an integral component of its ECM solution, which means your EDM solution becomes an integral component of your overall ECM strategy.

Your electronic documents are securely managed in the same repository as all of your enterprise content: records, drawings, web content. Your people and the business processes they participate in can access the content they need, regardless of its format or origin and regardless of their geographic location.
