Case Studies
Customised by NEXTech, the Cimage Fusion solution
will control more than 5 million documents per year
and will bring security and ease of access at the Brazilian Central Bank
All companies and organisations possess a series of important documents
that need to be stored and accessed periodically. In the case of a federal
public institution, such as the Central Bank, the quantity of documents in
existence is enormous, requiring control tools that guarantee secure storage and
access. There are no less than 5 million documents per year that need to be
controlled by the Brazilian Central Bank. The Cimage Fusion suite from NEXTech, a subsidiary of the SWORD Group in
Brazil, was chosen through a tendering process and will support the Central Bank's ECM technology. Fusion is a 100% web based, multi-layer solution which
integrates document management, content management and process automation in
only one application module. Cimage drives London Underground’s Information
Management Strategy forward
Facing document management challenges. LUL had amassed a vast store of millions
of key historical documents that are still required for access, review and use
by operations today. In addition, the newly distributed structure of the
information among the Infracos, plus the need to manage records, comply with the
requirements of the Freedom of Information Act, integrate with or replace
multiple legacy systems together presented some interesting document management
challenges.
Cimage adds value to the quality and completeness
of AMEC’s data
AMEC is an international engineering services company providing design, project

100,000 documents and it is estimated that some 2.5 million single document
transactions will take place during that product cycle. If each of these
transactions were to take 10 minutes this process could consume around 400,000
man hours.
