City Council Cures Email Blues with BluePoint
Warrnambool City Council use BluePoint to
safeguard a critical information asset - Email
As email becomes a pivotal part of
day-to-day business, an increasing amount of vital content
is being stored in email systems. Email management is a
key issue that needs to be resolved for a complete content
management strategy. Compliance with records management
standards is impossible to achieve without the support of
a sound content management system that includes email capture.
Warrnambool City Council found it was responding to significant
and spiralling volumes of email. Peter Newell, IT Manager,
Warrnambool City Council, explains, "For some time we have
used email for business communication. It is clear that the
information we send and receive via email must be managed
and preserved as a corporate record."
BluePoint has been in use at Warrnambool City as its enterprise
content management system since 2000. Warrnambool City use
BluePoint to capture and manage council critical content that
is created or received via postage, facsimile, and more recently
email. "The council is extremely pleased with BluePoint, it
has really proven itself as a solution and is now an integral
part of the way we do business," Peter states "I wouldn't
hesitate to recommend BluePoint to organisations like Warrnambool.
BluePoint has enabled us to automate business processes, comply
with regulatory and legislative obligations, streamline communication,
and improve efficiencies throughout the organisation."
