| Customer Overview |
The Defense Information Technology Contracting Organization (DITCO) provides information technology contracting services for United States Department of Defense organizations. |
| |
| Needs |
DITCO needed to automate its paper-intensive manual processes associated with government procurements. Contract documents produced by a myriad of contracting applications had to be printed and filed in paper contract folders. |
| |
| Solution |
QFlow consultants developed an electronic contract file application based upon FileNet Imaging System software. The application provides an integrated solution that captures and stores all electronic documents, e-mails, and paper documents related to a procurement. The system is integrated with other contracting applications so documents and data are automatically transferred into the electronic contract file. The contract file is integrated with a Records Management system to meet DOD 5015 regulations. The system has been in production since October 1999.
