TOWER Software users head series of free seminars

Electronic Document and Records Management: Improving Information Management and delivering better services visits Leeds, 2nd August, Winchester, 6th September and London, 27th September

29th July 2005 - London, United Kingdom - Unique briefings based on TOWER Software customers presenting their own implementation experiences are to be held in Leeds, Winchester and London during August and September 2005. Useful for anyone in government who has information management responsibilities or who is responsible for meeting e- government targets and delivering improved services, the agenda will include speakers from Staffordshire County Council, the National Maritime Museum, the Northern Ireland Civil Service and the Department for Constitutional Affairs.

Tony Sumpster, Managing Director for TOWER Software EMEA explains, “The Government agenda is clear – modernise to improve services and do it efficiently. The Gershon efficiency target of 2.5% is encouraging local government to review current processes with a view to freeing up resources to the front-line where service matters. Existing legislation and targets such as; Freedom of Information (FOI), Electronic Social Care Records (ESCR), Comprehensive Performance Assessments (CPA’s) – represent further pressures that weigh on the shoulders of Chief Executives and Senior Managers throughout Government. Common to each target is the need to manage vital information assets – know what you hold, secure its authenticity and deliver it to stakeholders in an efficient manner. Achieve this across your organisation or authority and you will build the first foundation block to efficient electronic service delivery and legislative compliance.”

The local and central government speakers will cover:

•  Implementing EDRM to support e-government initiatives including Electronic Social Care Records
• Lessons Learnt from customer implementations
• How to successfully kick off an EDRM project
