Xerox DocuShare helps public sector organizations improve efficiency and provide the transparency needed at all levels. Huge savings are achieved by enabling staff and constituents to easily manage the growing amount of paper and digital documents that flow in and out of government institutions.
Slow, paper-based processes that used to take weeks are transformed into fast, accurate, automated processes that take seconds or minutes. Paper documents are scanned and stored along with electronic documents, images, email, and other types of content in a single, searchable repository. Citizens, public servants, and suppliers can go online to access public records and collaborate on projects and initiatives.
DocuShare is one of the easiest, most affordable, proven content management solutions on the market. It requires little to no IT support, works with almost all hardware and software platforms including Unix and Solaris, and is flexible and scalable.
"At one time, we maintained 50 four-drawer lateral files; now we keep just one. And the four full-time staff that previously did nothing but build paper files are now able to focus on more constructive activities. [DocuShare] helps us to meet performance indicators – which drives our funding – and better serve our customers. It’s changed the way we do business.”
—Director of Unemployment Insurance, Oklahoma Employment Security Commission |
