Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
The New Zealand Government’s department of Building and Housing has contracted ECM vendor, Objective Corporation, to design and implement a solution to manage its information, knowledge and records as an important strategic asset, and to support the growth of its knowledge base and the dissemination of information across the department.
The Building and Housing department’s chief
advisor information, Mike Winiata, said today the Objective solution
would primarily be used to manage the creation, storage, retrieval and
retention of all electronic documents – of which the department
currently has around 500,000 - and the management of records to
establish a centralised repository of the department’s entire
corporate, business and customer information.
Winiata said Objective will also be used to gather and collate
information that will enable “well-informed policy advice and
operational decisions. He said approximately 400 department staff will
use Objective, and the solution will be integrated with some existing
and new business applications, and deployed across all department
desktop computers and laptops.
The department currently has approximately 500,000 electronic
documents, increasing in size by approximately 10percent per annum, as
well as an estimated 200,000 to 300,000 business related emails and
200,000 paper-based documents.
According to Objective, once implemented, its solution is also expected
to support the department’s business operations and legislative
requirements by automating the management of key business information
and records, providing workflow and tracking capability for key
Ministerial servicing business processes including Official Information
Act, Privacy Act and Ministerial requests, providing business systems
with additional document version control and record keeping
functionality, managing the integrity of information, knowledge and
records as an important strategic asset, and facilitating and providing
an evidence base for ensuring statutory compliance.
Winiata said Ojective was selected because the department “needed an
enterprise solution that would manage our entire information life
cycle, integrate with existing and new business applications, and
support the department in meeting its statutory compliance obligations
under the Public Records Act 2005.”
