Business IT - Technology

The Welsh Assembly Government’s chief medical officer, Dr. Tony Jewell, said the government’s primary focus was to introduce a solution that would ensure it was wholly compliant with information management legislation both now, and in the future.

“Objective’s software, expertise and proven commitment will help us to meet these compliance requirements and at the same time enable improvements in effectiveness that supports the delivery of better services to the citizen of Wales.”

Dr Jewell said the need for timely access to complete and accurate information, together with accountable and legislatively compliant information management, was all-pervasive for such a high-profile organisation as the Welsh Assembly Government.

According to Dr Jewell, previously the Welsh Assembly Government relied on traditional
methods of information management such as paper-based filing and basic IT systems, and, he says,  that by “replacing and modernising these with Objective’s single source of the truth, the Welsh Assembly Government will be ensuring that public information assets are controlled, safe and available when needed.”

Objective says it worked extensively with the Welsh Assembly Government to conduct several projects prior to entering into the agreement, with the success of the projects influencing the government’s decision to implement the solution enterprise-wide.

Dr Jewell says Objective was selected because of their “successful track record in government in the UK, their demonstrated commitment to us and to working in Wales. Their best practice approach complements our long-term development strategy and represents a sound investment for our future.”
