DoD Certifies PC Docs and Provenance Technology
The Department of Defense (DoD) has certified PC Docs' (Burlington, MA) Docs Open document management system with Provenance Systems' (Arlington, VA) ForeMost records management application. The combination has been approved to support the federal government's new Design Criteria Standard for Electronic Records Management Software Applications, which sets mandatory functional requirements for records management software used by the DoD. Docs Open is the first commercial off-the-shelf application to be tested with ForeMost, which is the first records management application to be certified under the new standard. The DoD's approval is the first step towards ensuring "a unified approach to maintaining, controlling and disposing of key government documents," said Martha Turner, director of federal operations at PC Docs.
