Astech are pleased to announce that Essex County Council are the latest Authority to sign up to CMIS V5
Colin Ismay,Governance Manager, said of the new partnership "Essex is very pleased to be working with Astech on the delivery of CMIS. CMIS will meet all of our requirements and more and will be a huge improvement on our outdated in house package. It will greatly improve the information we make available to the public through our web site and has the capability of delivering real benefits in managing our meeting and decision-making processes. In making our decision we were impressed by the fact that there were strong advocates for CMIS amongst those authorities already using it. We particularly liked the adaptability of CMIS and the fact that its workflow/process driven model would enable a high degree of tailoring. Astech’s expertise in offering a vendor hosted solution was also key. We were impressed by the technical support for CMIS and the fact that Astech clearly understood our business issues and needs. On top of all of this it was competitively priced"
