Smoothly blended content, records management

TOWER Software and Vital Path have formed a partnership to provide "in place" records management software. The joint solution makes it possible for organizations to continue to manage content at the line of business and departmental level while managing records at the enterprise level, thereby leveraging current IT investment and legacy systems, the companies report.

They add that the solution enables customers to rapidly implement and enforce standard information policies across their enterprise as required by the new Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. They further add that by providing seamless integration with existing content repositories, organizations also have the ability to perform federated search and place holds on content across their existing line of business and document management repositories.

TOWER Software delivers an ‘enterprise ready’ proven ECM solution through its TRIM Context product, which allows organizations to manage, access and secure all information across the enterprise. PathBuilder from Vital Path helps companies connect diverse content and data repositories.
