4matix News 31st July 2002 New System Will Manage More Than 11 Million Documents For Multiple Retirement and Pension Programs Statewide GREENSBORO, N.C., July 31 /PRNewswire/ -- DTI Integrated Business Solutions, a leading content management integrator in the Southeast, announced today that it has successfully installed a new electronic document management system for the North Carolina Department of State Treasurer (DST). The $1.5 million system upgrades the state retirement program into an enterprise- wide solution for the retirement system that captures information from a variety of sources and provides users with the ability to view, annotate, print, fax and/or email documents directly from their PCs. With more than 600,000 members and over $54 billion in assets, the DST required a new solution that was user-friendly, and still provided the highest security possible. It also had to be extremely flexible in assimilating information in electronic, paper, microfiche and other formats into a common database. The system developed by DTI meets those requirements, and its open and scaleable architecture enables it to meet both current and future needs. Ongoing comprehensive support from DTI will ensure maximum uptime and accuracy. "The retirement system for the state of North Carolina is the 10th largest public plan in the U.S., and the 24th largest in the world. We needed to find a way to electronically organize and manage this massive amount of information in a more efficient and logical manner," said Bill Golden, Chief Information Officer, North Carolina Department of State Treasurer. "DTI emerged as the most qualified vendor to provide a comprehensive system, including custom design, implementation and ongoing support, that met our specific criteria." The Retirement Systems Division of the Department of State Treasurer was looking for a single vendor to provide: * Complete turnkey conversion of the images and data stored in the legacy Unisys system that was being replaced * Ability to capture documents from a variety of sources, including scanners, digital microfiche reader printers, and data from electronic forms * Instant access to documents stored within the system, based on security clearance * Workflow capability to support the current retirement system process * Complete system administration, security and audit capabilities "It would have been easy to simply give them the latest software; the critical part is making all of the various components work together in a seamless solution and integrate them into their workflow/business processes," said Phillip Clary, manager of Business Development, DTI. "Our experience with such varied clients as the Coca-Cola Bottling Company, Food Lion and the Boy Scouts of America, gave us an edge in being able to design a best-of-breed solution."
