VDS launches FiT Lifecycle Management information governance software
VDS is offering FiT Lifecycle Management, a customized disposition and retention workflow management solution that identifies and organizes aging documents, transforming them into an automated retention and disposition workflow so the most relevant can be optimized and that which no longer have value destroyed. FiT helps reduce risk, support compliance, and saves time and money, according to the vendor.
“From law firms to corporations to government agencies, we hear the same refrain—overwhelmed executives and IT leaders want better ways to manage and streamline their organizations’ records. Years of generating too much data, keeping up with changing legal requirements for document retention and deletion, have impeded productivity and compliance,” said VDS president Antony Forde. “FiT Lifecycle Management is information governance amplified, giving organizations full oversight and control in the governance and management of documents throughout their lifecycle.”
Web-based and compatible with different browsers, FiT features new front-end technology and a SQL back end. According to the company, FiT brings numerous benefits to an organization, from improved efficiency and faster retrieval to enhanced workflows. But one of the biggest is ensuring legal compliance, thereby reducing risks.
In addition, FiT saves significant costs by actively managing storage. FiT reduces/eliminates unnecessary, redundant, obsolete, trivial, and transitory data and documents and as a result can decrease an organization’s costs for storage and IT infrastructure. It also keeps administrative costs at a minimum.
FiT provides industry-leading functionality with a high-level of configurability, ease of deployment, and seamless integration with other systems and vendors. FiT also provides:
- Mobile Access: With its unique iOS App platform, FiT runs on an iPhone or Android. Now clerks can scan files without the bulky scanners organizations hate supporting.
- Powerful Reporting: By consolidating data sources into a single reporting module, FiT provides enhanced business intelligence. Unlike traditional static reports, users can analyze data to find, compare and share actionable insights such as department and employee performance levels.
- Electronic Job Submissions: Staff can create work orders at their desks. Once created, notification is sent to the support group. Instead of walking the floors—support teams can retrieve a job as soon as it’s requested.
- Easy IOS/based Asset Tracking: Users can track files and boxes quickly with barcodes and FiT’s IOS application, allowing fast response to requests for pick-up or retrieval.
FiT can be hosted either in the cloud or on-site. It was developed to be flexible enough to meet broad company expectations and configurations. Ongoing premiere support is available for free to customers who sign a three-year term. Customers who sign a single-year term have access to FiT’s customer support portal for system guides and web chat support.
