PUBLIC SECTOR partner guide 2011/12<br />
Raising<br />
the bar<br />
Welcome to the <strong>Public</strong> Sector Partner Guide 2011/12.<br />
This second edition of our annual directory for the<br />
public <strong>sector</strong> brings together almost 200 companies from the<br />
Microsoft partner community in Europe, the Middle East and<br />
Africa that are all working to develop technology solutions that<br />
exceed their customers’ expectations and stand them in good<br />
stead for the future.<br />
Providing solutions for public <strong>sector</strong> organisations brings<br />
its own set of demands, such as stringent document and data<br />
management guidelines, legal compliance and information<br />
security issues. The diverse needs of government, health and<br />
education institutions also challenge technology companies to<br />
stay ahead of the game and deliver solutions that raise the bar<br />
for innovation, which is just what the organisations featured<br />
in the following pages strive to do.<br />
The US Air Force, the United Nations Environment<br />
Programme and The London Borough of Hackney are just a<br />
few of the high-profile names featured here that have benefited<br />
from Microsoft partner expertise using technologies such as<br />
Dynamics CRM and SharePoint. You can learn more about<br />
this and other examples of game-changing technologies<br />
through the examples of successful solution implementations<br />
showcased in the following pages.<br />
You will also hear from leading experts in their field about<br />
the issues that are affecting their companies, as well as find<br />
a detailed catalogue of companies that are committed to<br />
delivering industry-relevant products, solutions and services.<br />

e-government<br />
Markus Schenk<br />
Product Marketing Owner eGov, Fabasoft<br />
Efficient e-government –<br />
but how?<br />
Markus Schenk discusses the advantages of an effective e-government system<br />
With over 20 years of practical<br />
experience in the field of public<br />
<strong>sector</strong> services, we have seen lots of<br />
trends, strategies and government<br />
master plans. But the outcome<br />
has seldom met expectations.<br />
What has happened? And what do<br />
leading e-government countries and<br />
organisations do that is so different<br />
and so much better?<br />
Requirements for a public<br />
<strong>sector</strong> organisation have changed<br />
considerably during the last two<br />
centuries and even if the Internet<br />
and Web 2.0 have been classified as<br />
“not relevant” by many public <strong>sector</strong><br />
organisations, no one can stop this<br />
evolution now. It started with an<br />
almost yearly demand for public <strong>sector</strong><br />
refurbishment in terms of efficiency<br />
and public responsiveness in daily life,<br />
as well as a growing impact from cost<br />
cutting. But only a few recognised this<br />
challenge as an ongoing process.<br />
To begin with let us break down<br />
the reason why results did not match<br />
public expectations even though<br />
budgets have increased year by year.<br />
The first reason is a misinterpretation<br />
of the actual state. The current situation<br />
with popular hybrid internal processes<br />
based on paper, e-mails and office<br />
documents led most organisations –<br />
even in other industries like finance<br />
– to a lack of consistent documents or<br />
case information and non-observance<br />
of organisational and legal rules,<br />
known commonly as legal compliance.<br />
Thus the definition of comprehensive<br />
software requirements and service<br />
levels will not solve the organisational<br />
problem.<br />
Another reason is lacking flexibility.<br />
E-government projects very often<br />
stand out due to their lengthy lead<br />
times, even if requirements change<br />
constantly.<br />
A limited view of the whole issue<br />
also warrants mention. Installation of<br />
many small information technology<br />
islands is a fast way to achieve initial<br />
results but will consume all budgets<br />
if these islands have to be connected.<br />
There are many more reasons why<br />
e-government projects and solutions<br />
did not satisfy expectations, but let<br />
us take a look at leading countries<br />
– in the case of the yearly European<br />
e-government rankings – there<br />
are some significant factors worth<br />
mentioning:<br />
Best practice<br />
Some people tend to reinvent the<br />
wheel as often as possible. To be<br />
successful it is essential to use<br />
best practice not only in terms of<br />
the projects themselves but also<br />
with regard to field tested software<br />
products. E-government projects<br />
“A permanently changing<br />
environment demands<br />
agility – this has become<br />
a growing requirement for<br />
implementing successful<br />
e-government solutions”<br />
9
are projects to assemble standard<br />
products together based on open Web<br />
interfaces and establish organisational<br />
requirements. By focusing on software<br />
development, the technical focus will<br />
push the organisational requirements<br />
aside and the project will fail.<br />
Commitment<br />
E-government projects need top<br />
management responsibility, but what<br />
does this mean? According to the<br />
commonly hybrid and not compliant<br />
work, leading countries or government<br />
bodies established organisational<br />
groundwork which allowed for<br />
entirely electronic work. This includes<br />
preparing all staff for changes as well<br />
as establishing the legal requirements.<br />
There is no way of bypassing this<br />
mandatory requirement. Many of<br />
our customers recognised this fact<br />
and therefore it has been possible to<br />
use our applications throughout the<br />
organisation. As a result, hybrid work<br />
has been stopped and compliance has<br />
been achieved again.<br />
Implementation of reusable core<br />
components<br />
Reusable components provide a<br />
solid base for establishing complex<br />
e-government infrastructures. Base<br />
components include at least a<br />
standardised office tool, messaging<br />
system, authentication system,<br />
enterprise resource planning (ERP)<br />
system and a content repository<br />
(enterprise content management<br />
system). All these components<br />
must be used within the whole<br />
organisation to ensure financially<br />
feasible infrastructure even in times<br />
of permanent change. Therefore, a<br />
consolidation of comparable processes<br />
(for example financial processes and<br />
“To be successful it is essential to use best practice not only in<br />
terms of the projects themselves but also with regard to field<br />
tested software products”<br />
content-based processes) has been<br />
enforced by leading organisations to<br />
keep the number of systems running<br />
as low as possible. A high number of<br />
running applications is a typical sign<br />
of high operating costs, which results<br />
in insufficient financial flexibility.<br />
Many of our experienced customers<br />
will confirm these statements. Our<br />
customers use Fabasoft eGov-Suite<br />
as a collaboration tool, for document,<br />
records and workflow management,<br />
as an organisational archive, as online<br />
service integrated into existing portals<br />
and also as a backbone for vertical<br />
applications and other online services.<br />
This reuse gives our customers the<br />
opportunity to benefit from flexible<br />
adaptations and efficient rollout<br />
throughout the organisation.<br />
Citizen/customer orientation<br />
The world is changing all the time,<br />
the phrase ‘customer orientation’<br />
applies to government bodies as well<br />
as commercial companies. Customer<br />
orientation constitutes a demand for<br />
online services for digital natives, as<br />
well as for nearly all other citizens.<br />
Compared to the successful Web 2.0<br />
enterprises, governments have the<br />
same customers and so they have the<br />
same demands: transactional online<br />
services, a low technical entry barrier,<br />
24/7 availability, premium and efficient<br />
service quality and are easy to use.<br />
Our customers will confirm this<br />
through practical experience. Easy to<br />
use transactional online services will<br />
be accepted by customers/citizens even<br />
without exhausting marketing measures.<br />
Incidentally, that is a great opportunity<br />
to speed up your internal processes.<br />
Some of our customers created a whole<br />
new presence by providing transactional<br />
online services and reduced internal<br />
efforts and expenses.<br />
A p e r m a n e n t l y c h a n g i n g<br />
environment demands agility – this<br />
has become a growing requirement<br />
for implementing successful<br />
e-government solutions. This means<br />
that the result has to match the<br />
customer/citizen needs at the end<br />
of the project. Adoption is required<br />
during the implementation, which<br />
has to be enabled from the project<br />
organisation, as well as the products<br />
used. Our professional services<br />
experts are specially trained for agile<br />
methods to enable our customers to<br />
focus on required changes and profit<br />
from these opportunities.<br />
Currently our public <strong>sector</strong><br />
customers have licensed Fabasoft<br />
eGov-Suites for more than 150,000<br />
users as an internal backbone for<br />
document-oriented processes and also<br />
for use as transactional online service<br />
is growing constantly. Thus we are<br />
proud to be a part of numerous best<br />
practice implementations in Europe<br />
,which allow for dealing with actual<br />
challenges such as cloud computing<br />
and open government.<br />

Document management<br />
Greg Milliken<br />
President, Motive Systems<br />
Leading a<br />
horse to water<br />
Minimising change is the key to document management success, says Greg Milliken<br />
What is meant by minimising change<br />
in relation to the implementation of a<br />
document management system? Isn’t<br />
adopting document management<br />
all about changing the way people<br />
work to improve processes for<br />
organising and managing company<br />
documents with the goal of<br />
reducing time wasted looking for<br />
documents, improving information<br />
reuse, ensuring compliance with<br />
regulations and standards, and<br />
minimising or eliminating conflicts<br />
and loss of data? Yes, it is, but<br />
to gain those benefits consistent<br />
usage and adoption across the<br />
company or organisation is of<br />
critical importance. When I think<br />
of the challenges faced in deploying<br />
technology solutions such as<br />
document management, it brings to<br />
mind an old saying: “you can lead a<br />
horse to water but you can’t make<br />
him drink.”<br />
It may sound obvious to say that<br />
one way to ensure rapid and broad<br />
adoption of a new system is to make<br />
it easy to use, but it’s not the full<br />
story. Clearly, the reason companies<br />
adopt technologies like document<br />
management is to derive benefits for<br />
the company at an organisational or<br />
corporate level, and the pursuit of this<br />
goal can create a top-down mentality,<br />
where users are required to learn<br />
the new system and conform to new<br />
processes. Frequently, the required<br />
changes to processes and behaviours<br />
associated with a new technology<br />
solution are significant, and achieving<br />
broad adoption and consistent use<br />
becomes an enforcement effort. Often<br />
users will look for ways to bypass the<br />
system to avoid the real or perceived<br />
additional effort. In the case of a new<br />
document management system where<br />
documents are stored in a centralised<br />
vault, it is not uncommon for users to<br />
sidestep the new processes and try to<br />
keep working the way they did in the<br />
past, only uploading documents to the<br />
vault when they are finished or when it<br />
is convenient. If they can get away with<br />
it, often they’ll just bypass the new<br />
system entirely, and management will<br />
never know until a problem or issue<br />
is encountered later on. So imagine<br />
the impact of a majority, or even a<br />
significant minority, of employees<br />
working around the system like this; it<br />
undermines the process, lengthening<br />
the time it takes for the company to<br />
achieve a return on investment in the<br />
new system, or worse, it leads to a<br />
failed implementation.<br />
But what if the new system’s<br />
benefits were so immediately<br />
apparent that it made the users’ dayto-day<br />
work easier? In addition, a<br />
key to this sort of widespread, rapid<br />
“The reason companies<br />
adopt technologies like<br />
document management<br />
is to derive benefits<br />
for the company at an<br />
organisational or<br />
corporate level.”<br />
13
adoption is to look for solutions that<br />
minimise changes to users’ current<br />
behaviour. In the case of document<br />
management, what if users could<br />
continue to work as they always<br />
have? And what if they immediately<br />
and personally began accruing the<br />
benefits of faster and better search,<br />
along with assured access to the most<br />
up-to-date document by eliminating<br />
duplicates, in addition to seamless<br />
access to past versions, and so on?<br />
Rather than the top-down push,<br />
by simplifying users’ day-to-day<br />
work from the bottom up, the pull<br />
effect is created, rapidly achieving<br />
widespread, consistent adoption and<br />
maximising the return on investment<br />
on the new system.<br />

Electronic payments<br />
Koby Levy<br />
VP International Operations, Netwise Applications<br />
Creating an electronic<br />
payment foundation<br />
Koby Levy explains why public <strong>sector</strong> organisations need a central government e-payments solution<br />
In a world motivated by the<br />
information revolution, where the<br />
World Wide Web and mobile phones<br />
have been turned into a platform for<br />
electronic commerce, government<br />
and public organisations are<br />
required to enable citizens to make<br />
their payments online or by mobile<br />
phones, safely, quickly and easily.<br />
The challenge<br />
The requirements of a government<br />
e-payments system, designed to<br />
facilitate the online payment of various<br />
government taxes and fees, are quite<br />
different than those of traditional<br />
e-payments systems.<br />
Government e-payments systems<br />
should:<br />
• Easily integrate with various<br />
back-end systems (different local<br />
governments, departments and<br />
public organisations) in order to<br />
obtain payment details and report<br />
back the payments made<br />
• Serve various end users (citizens,<br />
corporations, businesses or<br />
business representatives)<br />
• Support all payment types<br />
(voucher payments, service fees,<br />
product catalogue or referrals –<br />
i.e. business registration renewal<br />
fees, council taxes, building<br />
tax payments and land registry<br />
information)<br />
• Enable different payment methods<br />
(debit/credit card, direct online<br />
bank transfer and PayPal)<br />
• Provide a holistic view of all<br />
government payments.<br />
Enterprise or other banking<br />
e-payments solutions are ill suited to<br />
government needs. These solutions<br />
are concerned mainly with the<br />
management of product catalogues<br />
and inventories that are of little<br />
interest to governments. They do<br />
not support ad-hoc generation of<br />
personalised payment items or<br />
provide tight integration with a large<br />
variety of back-end systems, which are<br />
some of the unique requirements of a<br />
government e-payments foundation<br />
solution. In order to overcome this<br />
challenge, a central solution capable<br />
of matching these requirements needs<br />
to be implemented.<br />
Introducing GPay<br />
Netwise has been developing its<br />
government specific e-payments<br />
platform product for many years. It<br />
has been put to the test in real life and<br />
ever since has been carefully enhanced<br />
and upgraded to what it is today. The<br />
GPay product is a complete solution<br />
for government e-payments.<br />
Gpay generates personalised<br />
payment items through different<br />
“The requirements of a<br />
government e-payments<br />
system, designed to facilitate<br />
the online payment of<br />
various government taxes<br />
and fees, are quite different<br />
than those of traditional<br />
e-payments systems”<br />
17
procurement processes, as well as<br />
referral payments.<br />
scenarios, either as a full payment<br />
process or payment referral, enabling<br />
transactions received from a variety of<br />
sources. It supports the consolidation<br />
of various payments using the same<br />
infrastructure, and allows for any type<br />
of charge including the sale of shopping<br />
basket ‘tangible’ items such as books<br />
and publications. It provides full<br />
management and monitoring facilities.<br />
A success story is the national<br />
e-payment service for the government<br />
of Israel where nearly 2,000 types<br />
of payment vouchers from over 200<br />
government ‘store fronts’ are processed<br />
yearly, generating more than 2.5 million<br />
transactions and US$2 billion of income.<br />
Gpay – Netwise’s e-gov e-payments<br />
complete solution<br />
Gpay is a complete solution, designed<br />
specifically with and for governments,<br />
both national and local. It is designed<br />
to introduce the key e-services for<br />
improving the connection with citizens<br />
by supporting all type of payments<br />
electronically by any channel, all day<br />
and every day, using any acceptable<br />
payment method. It provides<br />
central control over all electronic<br />
funds transactions throughout the<br />
government, while unifying the user<br />
interface, system behaviour and<br />
governmental overall branding, along<br />
with personalisation of properties for<br />
each service or organisation. Gpay<br />
offers short time to market – within<br />
a few weeks the first e-service can<br />
be established. Over and above the<br />
rest, Gpay is proven to significantly<br />
reduce costs and increase government<br />
payment visibility by cutting down<br />
manual work by payers and receivers<br />
and by creating instant visibility of who<br />
paid for what and when.<br />
Gpay’s advantages<br />
• Easily integrates with various<br />
government back-end systems such as<br />
enterprise resource planning or billing<br />
• Designed for both private citizens<br />
and organisations/corporations<br />
• Supports all payment types<br />
• Enables all e-payments methods<br />
• Provides a holistic payments<br />
solution<br />
• Offers a range of payment channels<br />
• Supports full sales and<br />
Gpay is built on top of Microsoft<br />
Commerce Server, a reliable, flexible<br />
and extendible e-commerce platform.<br />
It utilises standard features available<br />
on Commerce Server such as the<br />
shopping cart, and checkout and some<br />
of the administrative modules.<br />
As a pre-packaged solution, Gpay<br />
can be easily deployed out of the<br />
box, with the necessary minimal<br />
customisation being carried out using<br />
the Gpay payment service deployment<br />
wizard. If required, it can also be<br />
extended or be used as an SDK on top<br />
of which a customised government<br />
commerce solution, serving some<br />
specific, advanced need, may be built.<br />
One Gpay installation can easily<br />
support a multitude of different<br />
payment services, involving different<br />
payment processes, interacting with<br />
different government back-end systems,<br />
using different protocols, and crediting<br />
different beneficiaries and bank accounts.<br />
This enables government departments<br />
to consolidate their various e-payment<br />
operations, saving on infrastructure,<br />
development and maintenance costs.<br />
The Israeli Ministry of Finance<br />
The ministry has been using the GPay<br />

Business intelligence<br />
for the public <strong>sector</strong><br />
Paul Barber looks at the challenges of extracting the right data to integrate with a true BI solution<br />
A true business intelligence (BI)<br />
solution simplifies information<br />
discovery and analysis, making<br />
it possible for decision makers<br />
at all levels of an organisation<br />
to easily access, understand,<br />
analyse, collaborate and act<br />
on information, anytime and<br />
anywhere. Unfortunately, typical<br />
BI solutions tend to support only<br />
traditional data sources that were<br />
designed to enhance business<br />
applications. Therefore, BI in<br />
the public <strong>sector</strong> only becomes a<br />
worthwhile investment when data<br />
trapped in several application silos<br />
is integrated.<br />
Solutions such as PROPHIX have<br />
the ability to integrate data from<br />
multiple sources into a single unified<br />
view of the business, making the<br />
most of the plethora of information.<br />
PROPHIX Software is the leading<br />
developer of solutions designed<br />
to automate financial processes<br />
including budgeting, planning,<br />
reporting, analysis, and performance<br />
management and helps solve the<br />
common challenge of the quality of BI<br />
information by improving the source<br />
data with its underlying technology.<br />
Data integrity involves a whole<br />
segment of the software industry<br />
devoted to improving the integration<br />
of data from existing systems. Extract,<br />
transform, load (ETL) tools are used<br />
exactly as it implies – extract data,<br />
transform it to make it more accurate<br />
or consistent, and load it into a<br />
database for eventual display – and<br />
are sold mainly to larger companies<br />
that have many legacy systems. Midsized<br />
companies that use enterprise<br />
resource planning (ERP) systems often<br />
have less of a need for ETL tools since<br />
the ERP takes care of storing data in a<br />
consistent format. However, even if a<br />
company has an ERP, it may be better<br />
to avoid allowing a BI system direct<br />
access to production data. Directly<br />
accessing real-time production data<br />
can cause performance issues with<br />
those production systems.<br />
A key component to the success<br />
of a BI application is an efficient and<br />
reliable data retrieval process; hence,<br />
PROPHIX Software embraces the<br />
superior functionality of Microsoft’s<br />
Online Analytical Processing<br />
(OLAP) database for BI applications<br />
– Microsoft SQL Server Analysis<br />
Services (SSAS), the standard<br />
OLAP database in the industry.<br />
The functional advantages of OLAP<br />
include the speed of data retrieval,<br />
flexible reporting capabilities, and<br />
sophisticated calculations that can be<br />
defined in the OLAP database.<br />
Previously called multidimensional<br />
databases, OLAP databases have been<br />
”A key component to the<br />
success of a BI application is<br />
an efficient and reliable data<br />
retrieval process”<br />
21
used in the enterprise software market<br />
for decades and have been established as<br />
a powerful technology for many business<br />
applications. Because of the success<br />
of Analysis Services, there are many BI<br />
tools targeted at the mid-market that<br />
use SSAS as a data source and these are<br />
becoming a commodity. Because of this,<br />
PROPHIX was designed to interoperate<br />
with as many such BI tools as possible.<br />
PROPHIX is an excellent vehicle for<br />
creating Analysis Services OLAP cubes<br />
and importing data into those cubes so<br />
that BI tools can be used to view the data<br />
contained in them.<br />
PROPHIX has been proven to<br />
grow with companies as the industry<br />
changes, and, to date, hundreds<br />
of customers in of all types of the<br />
public <strong>sector</strong> – government, health,<br />
and education – are using PROPHIX<br />
to create financial models that<br />
contain data that can be used by BI<br />
applications. It includes many of<br />
the key features for data extraction<br />
and integration, but with a user<br />
interface that is easy-to-use for non-IT<br />
professionals. PROPHIX can calculate<br />
metrics (e.g. revenue/headcount), can<br />
be used as a mechanism for collecting<br />
data that is not available electronically,<br />
and can create OLAP models quickly<br />
and easily. It is not an ETL product<br />
or a data warehouse tool, but one of<br />
PROPHIX’s major strengths is that it<br />
can be used by a finance professional<br />
to implement business-focused BI<br />
applications with minimal need of IT<br />
expertise or involvement – skills that<br />
are often in short supply in smaller<br />
companies. PROPHIX Software has<br />
had experience with OLAP technology<br />
since the 1980s and has been<br />
involved in performance management<br />
software with the capabilities for the<br />
development of a BI solution such as<br />
“A true BI solution simplifies information discovery and analysis,<br />
making it possible for decision makers at all levels of an<br />
organisation to easily access, understand, analyse, collaborate,<br />
and act on information, anytime and anywhere”<br />
• Enabling non-IT professionals<br />
to create and maintain Microsoft<br />
SSAS models, including importing<br />
structures and data<br />
• Offering the Ad Hoc Analysis tool<br />
that can be used for unstructured<br />
BI access to numerical data and<br />
includes analytical capabilities such<br />
as delta analysis<br />
• Enabling non-IT professionals to<br />

a PROPHIX model for use in BI<br />
applications<br />
• Including workflow capabilities<br />
for managing the collection of<br />
manually entered data for BI<br />
systems, including e-mail collection<br />
using spreadsheets.<br />
PROPHIX perfectly combines<br />
Microsoft SQL Server technology with<br />
the business knowledge to offer the<br />
most effective BI resource and allow<br />
public <strong>sector</strong> companies the ability<br />
to make critical decisions based on<br />
inclusive information rather than<br />
incomplete data. With PROPHIX, you<br />
can integrate operational and business<br />
information for a better insight into<br />
performance to improve all levels and<br />
disciplines of the organisation – from<br />
optimising budget execution through<br />
to improving policy and strategy.<br />

General Manager Integrator Division, SingularLogic<br />
Standing out<br />
from the crowd<br />
Marica Labrou discusses the company’s areas of expertise in the public <strong>sector</strong><br />
SingularLogic is a leading software<br />
and integrated IT solutions group in<br />
Greece. It provides solutions for the<br />
private and public <strong>sector</strong>s both in<br />
Greece and in south eastern Europe.<br />
With a leading position in the<br />
provision of integrated IT systems<br />
since 1994, the relevant division of<br />
the group, Integrator Division, is<br />
involved in the design, development<br />
and implementation of solutions<br />
that contribute to the restructuring<br />
and modernisation of public services<br />
in Greece. This is with the aim of<br />
better serving citizens, modernising<br />
public services structure and giving<br />
the various public organisations the<br />
opportunity to better control their<br />
processes, income and expenses.<br />
We have implemented a significant<br />
number of important projects that<br />
have distinguished SingularLogic as<br />
a reliable transformation and delivery<br />
partner for the public <strong>sector</strong> in Greece.<br />
The division’s activity is based on the<br />
philosophy of cooperation with public<br />
services and private bodies, in order to<br />
offer alternative and automated services<br />
that maximise citizens’ satisfaction and<br />
minimise the overall cost of transactions.<br />
The successful completion of public<br />
<strong>sector</strong> projects depends on excellent<br />
project management and administration<br />
on behalf of SingularLogic, careful<br />
selection of partners, extensive<br />
know-how, optimum utilisation of<br />
specialised third-party solutions<br />
and services, and finally overall<br />
contribution realised in each project by<br />
the respective organisation/customer.<br />
All solutions make extensive use of<br />
existent state-of-the-art technologies,<br />
which are customised to meet each<br />
organisation’s needs so as to render the<br />
final implemented model efficient and<br />
sustainable.<br />
Integrator Division operates in the<br />
fields of public administration, public<br />
finance, justice, regional administration<br />
and local government, health, social<br />
security and defence. Furthermore,<br />
we undertake projects in the form of<br />
business process outsourcing services<br />

Proposals for the reform of the Greek<br />
public <strong>sector</strong> through information<br />
and communication technologies<br />
SingularLogic, based on its expertise,<br />
financial robustness, and extended<br />
successful experience in implementing<br />
large and complex projects in both the<br />
public and private <strong>sector</strong>, has prepared<br />
a framework of more than 20 proposals<br />
for the utilisation of information<br />
technologies aimed at eliminating<br />
government budget spending,<br />
increasing government revenue,<br />
establishing transparency, and further<br />
enhancing services provided for citizens<br />
in order to address current and chronic<br />
issues of the Greek <strong>Public</strong> Sector.<br />
These proposals include:<br />
modernisation in the public health<br />
<strong>sector</strong> through the utilisation<br />
of model hospital management<br />
systems; integrated cross-checking<br />
and performance control system<br />
of employers’ contributions;<br />
homogenisation of public <strong>sector</strong><br />
payroll; electronic public procurement;<br />
e-prescription system; consolidation of<br />
social security funds; one-stop-shop for<br />
licensing new enterprises; an integrated<br />
system for electronic publication,<br />
validation and analysis of tax data; and<br />
public real estate registry exploitation.<br />
Some of these proposals address<br />
the sensitive area of public health.<br />
SingularLogic has a long-standing<br />
successful track record in delivering<br />
sophisticated IT solutions in the health<br />
area, both in the public and private<br />
<strong>sector</strong>. The innovative Model Hospital<br />
Management System (MHMS) that is<br />
already operating successfully in the<br />
private <strong>sector</strong> (YGEIA GROUP) in 13<br />
hospitals, allows rational and effective<br />
management, both for the benefit of<br />
patients as well as for the maximum cost<br />
retention, without the need for hospitals<br />
to make significant investments. The<br />
MHMS covers the full hospital clinical,<br />
laboratory and financial management<br />
processes and it can contribute<br />
radically to improving productivity and<br />
efficiency in public hospitals. MHMS<br />
can also ensure full transparency<br />
and control by the state, through the<br />
optimal management of resources, the<br />
maximisation of operational security,<br />
and the efficient management of the<br />
hospital’s computerisation.<br />
The above solution is accessed by<br />
an advanced management information<br />
system (MIS), which offers sophisticated<br />
business intelligence capabilities that<br />
provide public health officials with<br />
informative decision making capabilities.<br />
MIS offers descriptive dashboards and<br />
statistical reports that present various<br />
key performance indicators and offer<br />
the hospitals’ management the ability to<br />
perform various analyses on data, such<br />
as execute ‘what-if’ scenarios, recognise<br />
patterns and monitor repetitive<br />
spending behaviours.<br />
SingularLogic has been a Microsoft<br />
partner for many years now. This<br />
partnership is based on an enterprise<br />
service agreement between Microsoft<br />
and SingularLogic, and SingularLogic<br />
is a Microsoft Large Account Reseller<br />
specifically for the public <strong>sector</strong>. We<br />
have invested heavily in Microsoft<br />
technology and we have a strong team<br />
of Microsoft certified professionals<br />
and specialists that can undertake<br />
any complex project relying on<br />
state-of-the-art Microsoft technology.<br />
This expertise has been built on the<br />
Microsoft .NET Framework and SQL<br />
Server database, while recently we<br />
have actively familiarised ourselves<br />
with business intelligence and<br />
SharePoint technologies as well.<br />
Last but not least, in December,<br />
2010, Microsoft and SingularLogic<br />
jointly announced their strategic<br />
partnership in order to promote cloud<br />
computing solutions in the Greek<br />
market. This partnership includes<br />
cooperation in three cloud computing<br />
areas, namely infrastructure-as-a-service,<br />
platform-as-a-service and software-asa-service.<br />
Moreover, SingularLogic will<br />
offer Microsoft Office 365 services via<br />
its broad network of partners that covers<br />
the entire Greek market.<br />

Bridgwater College<br />
Efficiency and<br />
continuity<br />
Bridgwater College passes<br />
desktop efficiency and continuity<br />
test using 2X and Microsoft.<br />
Bridgwater College, Somerset, UK<br />
provides outstanding education and<br />
training for 16,000 students, with<br />
over 1,000 staff, across locations in<br />
the south west of England.<br />
Providing excellent service and<br />
computing cost effectively shapes<br />
Bridgwater’s IT strategy, which<br />
is critical to effective learning<br />
and involves maintaining many<br />
concurrently and constantly used<br />
desktops.<br />
Bridgwater’s server-based<br />
computing and thin client<br />
desktop IT strategy achieves cost<br />
effectiveness and control. Load<br />
balancing of desktops to server<br />
resources is essential.<br />
“We run to strict timetables so<br />
frequently have many users logging<br />
on to desktops at the same time,”<br />
says Dave Foster, head of IT services<br />
at Bridgwater College. “Effective<br />
load balancing maintains a costeffective<br />
server-based computing<br />
infrastructure that can deal with this.”<br />
Bridgwater’s server upgrades have<br />
increased the number of users that<br />
can be provisioned from each server,<br />
extending the criticality of its load<br />
balancing. “We have 1,000 users<br />
logged onto the system at any time<br />
and have reduced our server numbers<br />
by approximately two thirds. This<br />
gives us the advantage of consolidating<br />
budgets but we need best in class, cost<br />
effective load balancing.”<br />
Unconvinced of the ROI from load<br />
balancing products within leading<br />
virtualisation suites, Bridgwater<br />
sought alternatives. “The cost of some<br />
solutions meant it would be cheaper to<br />
upgrade our server infrastructure and<br />
incorporate a ‘cushion’ of capacity,”<br />
says Foster. “By surveying the market<br />
we realised there were far simpler and<br />
more cost effective ways of doing this.”<br />
B r i d g w a t e r c h o s e 2 X<br />
LoadBalancer working with<br />
Microsoft’s load balancing<br />
tools. Terminal servers connect<br />
via IP addresses to Microsoft’s<br />
loadbalancer, which selects servers<br />
from numerous gateways. 2X<br />
LoadBalancer calculates loads across<br />
each gateway to ensure correct<br />
selection and routing in order to<br />
avoid bottlenecks.<br />
Foster explains: “In ten minutes<br />
we could have 500 users logging on<br />
and requiring instant access as part<br />
of timed lessons. Effective delivery<br />
of learning now requires 99.9 per<br />
cent success in providing access.<br />
2X LoadBalancer proves critical in<br />
ensuring that terminals are correctly<br />
mapped to server resources.”<br />
With 2X LoadBalancer Bridgwater<br />
College has maintained a highly<br />
cost-effective and reliable desktop<br />
infrastructure accommodating its<br />
large concurrent user base. With ICT<br />
availability essential to its outstanding<br />
performance, load balancing has<br />
become one of the most important<br />
aspects of IT delivery.<br />
2X’s per server licensing model<br />
compared to per user models of most<br />
load balancing solutions provides<br />
scalability at lower cost. This has<br />
enabled ROI against the cost of<br />
increasing its server infrastructure,<br />
not possible with competitors.<br />
Ease of use and rapid deployment<br />
makes 2X very simple to install and<br />
operate. Bridgwater started realising<br />
benefits immediately without<br />
significant management overhead.<br />
Foster concludes: “With 2X in<br />
place and able to optimise load<br />
balancing across our server resources<br />
we have saved significantly. 2X<br />
will remain at the core of our ICT<br />
delivery well into the future.”<br />

The Multi Channel Citizen Service Solution<br />
Information exchange<br />
The actual provision of information<br />
in government organisations<br />
is mainly organisation-unit<br />
oriented. This is especially true in<br />
municipalities, where the largest<br />
number of processes are found.<br />
Many cities/municipalities have<br />
tried to implement generic workflow<br />
solutions, which replace processspecific<br />
solutions. They found this<br />
to be too complex and require an<br />
enormous effort to implement.<br />
Running these projects for one or<br />
several years resulted in implementing<br />
only a few processes.<br />
A solution that really contributes to<br />
better information exchange between<br />
external and internal customers<br />
is Ackinas’ Multi Channel Citizen<br />
Service solution, which is generic<br />
and process independent. Each<br />
case starts in the case management<br />
system, independent of the channel<br />
that initiated it. The practitioner<br />
keeps track of the status and reports<br />
the (intermediate) result of the case.<br />
Communication to the customer<br />
and other related organisations can<br />
be carried out via any appropriate<br />
channel, where related incoming and<br />
outgoing dossier-related documents<br />
are attached to the case and stored in<br />
a document management system. The<br />
use of a case type catalogue, containing<br />
all the rules of registration, customer<br />
communication and archiving makes<br />
it possible to implement hundreds of<br />
processes in a relatively short period.<br />
The Multi Channel Citizen Service<br />
solution contains integrated functions<br />
for mail registration (including<br />
scanning), case management, dossier/<br />
document management and archiving.<br />
The customer contact centre has all<br />
the information on actual cases and<br />
dossiers, including the customer’s<br />
contacts and the full history of the<br />
case. Including the interactions with<br />
the back-office solutions makes it a<br />
generic mid-office management layer,<br />
which supports all the ambitions of a<br />
multi-channel citizen service platform.<br />
This leads to an improvement<br />
of the business and motivation of<br />
customers; more effective/efficient<br />
execution (one source of information<br />
for all departments); integration of<br />
different channels (intake via mail,<br />
desk, telephone and Web site in<br />
one solution); and chain integration<br />
(exchange of information on processes<br />
with other government organisations).<br />
The software is fully based on<br />
the open global World Wide Web<br />
Consortium standards (XML, SOAP,<br />
(X)HTML). These open standards<br />
enable communication with<br />
existing (back office) applications<br />
like Microsoft Dynamics CRM and<br />
registration systems. The tools<br />
have been developed using proven<br />
technology like Microsoft .NET and<br />
Windows Workflow Foundation, and<br />
SharePoint has been fully integrated as<br />
a document and dossier management<br />
solution. This solution is 100 per cent<br />
configurable. The user interface for<br />
both the citizen case management<br />
solution and the Web intake forms<br />
can be easily amended with a ‘what<br />
you see is what you get’ editor.<br />
The workflows can be modelled<br />
and maintained with a workflow<br />
editor without professional support.<br />
Management information is provided<br />
through Microsoft SQL Server<br />
Reporting Services.<br />
The solution has been implemented<br />
(or is in implementation) in a<br />
number of cities like The Hague,<br />
Antwerp, Gent in the Netherlands,<br />
and is applicable to all sizes of local<br />
government organisations, both<br />
budget and functional wise.<br />

OSCI messaging<br />
High security<br />
communication<br />
bremen online services is a<br />
German leading provider of IT<br />
solutions for secure and legally<br />
binding electronic messages.<br />
Founded in 1999, the company<br />
is now at the forefront of high<br />
security communication, utilising<br />
a knowledge in electronic<br />
signatures and cryptography<br />
in e-government, e-justice and<br />
e-business.<br />
Working prevalently with the<br />
German government on documents<br />
containing all manner of sensitive<br />
material, bremen online services<br />
has helped create an online service<br />
computer interface (OSCI). The<br />
basic premise of the solution is<br />
that information can be signed<br />
for (according to German digital<br />
signature law) and protected<br />
against spying by means of<br />
encryption while there are also<br />
measures in place to protect against<br />
the traceability of communications.<br />
The benefits of such a solution<br />
cannot be overstated; security of<br />
governmental material has never<br />
been more of a pressing issue<br />
than in the current global climate.<br />
Therefore a solution such as this,<br />
with security and functionality at<br />
the forefront of its make-up, is of<br />
paramount importance to those<br />
handling sensitive material.<br />
The standard for secure messages<br />
in the German e-government and<br />
e-justice system usually requires a<br />
separate client application to send<br />
and receive, with the new OSCI<br />
messaging, these documents can<br />
be sent from Microsoft Outlook.<br />
The difference from the previous<br />
system is the new add on for<br />
Microsoft Office, Governikus, a<br />
secure middleware .NET-based<br />
program that, once installed, creates<br />
an additional mailbox for OSCI<br />
messages in Outlook – messages<br />
can also be sent directly from<br />
Word, Excel and PowerPoint. The<br />
central administration application<br />
is Outlook.<br />
With this added functionality<br />
bremen online services is making<br />
it easier to securely pass electronic<br />
information. The only condition that<br />
is required to exercise data transfer<br />
over OCSI is the possession of an<br />
encryption certificate, while end-toend<br />
encryption is offered for those<br />
sending/receiving information. Put<br />
simply: only the recipient will be<br />
able to view the material.<br />
Typically, the solution will<br />
benefit governmental operations,<br />
and is used by all levels of<br />
administration across Germany<br />
and Europe – from local councils to<br />
national government dealing with<br />
documents relating to international<br />
diplomacy.<br />

alarms and non-emergency hospital<br />
transport in Belgium. When Mutas<br />
became an independent Belgian<br />
entity, it had to find business<br />
software for its support services.<br />
But as the internal operation<br />
already worked perfectly, the local<br />
team wanted to continue using this<br />
reliable method. Mutas entrusted<br />
the assignment to Agile Software<br />
Factory at Cegeka.<br />
Cegeka made full use of Microsoft<br />
.NET for the development and chose<br />
Microsoft Team Foundation Server<br />
for the development environment.<br />
The agile project management<br />
and development practices have<br />
already been neatly integrated in this<br />
application lifecycle management<br />
environment. “Thanks to the use<br />
of this development environment,<br />
the new application is a pleasure to<br />
work with, and it looks good too,”<br />
says project and data developer<br />
Koenraad Tholen. “As requested, the<br />
care providers have access to the same<br />
information as before, but the system<br />
is more intuitive.”<br />
Cegeka’s agile software<br />
development was decisive. “This<br />
was an important point in its favour<br />
because we wanted to be able to<br />
monitor the design from close by. If<br />
you meet with the developers every<br />
fortnight, you can revise it in good time.<br />
Cegeka organises its whole schedule<br />
around these fortnightly iterations, so<br />
there is great transparency right from<br />
the start. Other candidates’ scheduling<br />
was less clear.” Thanks to this wellorganised<br />
schedule, Mutas was able<br />
to tackle traditional children’s diseases<br />
and integrate all business applications<br />
before the migration. Thanks to the<br />
new Windows technology, Mutas can<br />
now provide much more information<br />
to the care providers on a single<br />
screen. “This provides a much better<br />
overview. In the past the application<br />
was more segmented into smaller<br />
windows. The user-friendliness has<br />
improved greatly so the leaning curve<br />
for new employees is less intense. The<br />
feedback has been very positive and<br />
the systems work nice and fast.”<br />
When a patient calls the centre<br />
for assistance, the care provider first<br />
creates a dossier. There is then a<br />
sequence of screens in which personal<br />
details, travel information and the<br />
medical ailments of the policyholder,<br />
among other things, must be entered.<br />
The system automatically generates<br />
follow-up tasks for all interventions.<br />
The night care provider places the<br />
next day’s timetable in the application,<br />
which then distributes the various<br />
dossiers’ tasks equally among<br />
the employees according to their<br />
specific skills: doctors, repatriation<br />
team, dossier managers and cost<br />
regulators. “This is done using an<br />
algorithm,” explains Tholen. “Cegeka<br />
has integrated the algorithm quickly<br />
and correctly in .NET. We thought<br />
this might be a problem, but it works<br />
perfectly. This is crucial because<br />
it forms the basis for our internal<br />
operation.”<br />
The distribution of work, currently<br />
particularly useful as a scheduling<br />
tool for the dossier managers, will be<br />
expanded in the future. “The doctors<br />
and cost regulators were among<br />
those to work with separate subsystems<br />
for their scheduling. Both<br />
of these front-end applications have<br />
not yet been integrated, although<br />
they do make use of the same SQL<br />
Server database system. We therefore<br />
want to make sure that they can also<br />
schedule their work using the new<br />
software,” says Tholen.<br />

Vaasa Central Hospital<br />
Order of operations<br />
Vaasa Central Hospital in Finland<br />
and its surrounding districts<br />
currently serve a population of<br />
167,000 inhabitants. The hospital<br />
is divided into performance areas,<br />
offering patient care, medical,<br />
psychiatric and operational<br />
performance services, in a total<br />
of 16 specialities. Vaasa defines<br />
the foundations of its health<br />
district operations as ‘specialised<br />
knowledge’ and ‘cooperation’.<br />
In 2009 Vaasa Central Hospital<br />
started a procurement process for<br />
a new enterprise resource planning<br />
system for surgical operations. The<br />
new, operation room information<br />
system (OIS) from Commit replaces<br />
a well-served, roughly 20 years old,<br />
outdated system that runs on a VAX/<br />
VMS platform that is soon to be<br />
supplanted. Growth in volumes and<br />
requirements for modern leadership<br />
in medical operations led the<br />
hospital to acquire a new system. It is<br />
expected that, in the future, resource<br />
planning will play a major part in<br />
operations. The hospital wanted its<br />
new system to be flexible according<br />
to its operations and activities.<br />
The OIS system is linked to<br />
the hospital information system<br />
(HIS) and the electronic patient<br />
record (EPR) systems. Medical<br />
appointments are registered in the<br />
HIS and transferred from there to<br />
the OIS. Information about medical<br />
operations is transferred to HIS. The<br />
EPR can be opened with desktop<br />
integration. In other words, there is<br />
a direct connection from OIS to EPR.<br />
With the new system, patients<br />
can be monitored in real time at<br />
different ward units and clinics,<br />
and the whole operation process<br />
becomes more visual. The hospital<br />
also expects the new system to<br />
improve communication between<br />
different ward units and clinics.<br />
For example, a preoperative clinic<br />
could use its own view to monitor<br />
their patients’ progression during<br />
the day. Correspondingly, the<br />
operation unit could see a realtime<br />
situation of all their operating<br />
rooms. The hospital hopes that this<br />
will help create more efficient and<br />
realistic operation schedules and<br />
also predict forthcoming situations<br />
in the operation unit.<br />
The estimated duration for each<br />
operation can be seen in the OIS<br />
and this helps with the planning<br />
of operation schedules. In the end,<br />
this will mean that the operation<br />
teams will also benefit from wellmade<br />
plans. Direct links from HIS<br />
to OIS will accelerate the process of<br />
finding patient records so that will<br />
be in real time – there will no longer<br />
be a need to interpret handwritten<br />
text. Intra-operative patient records<br />
will be registered in OIS and from<br />
there they will automatically be<br />
transferred to the EPR. Electronic<br />
registering of data leads users to<br />
register all necessary data and serves<br />
both the patient and medical staff.<br />
“We expect that the system will<br />
help us monitor operation teams<br />
in real time and plan the use of<br />
operation rooms. OIS will also assist<br />
in resource management,” says<br />

US Air Force Medical Service<br />
Effective enterprise<br />
content management<br />
The US Air Force Medical Service<br />
(AFMS) has a budget of US$6.9<br />
billion and runs 75 hospitals and<br />
clinics, providing care to over 2.6<br />
million beneficiaries. It employs<br />
more than 40,000 full-time officers,<br />
civilians, and enlisted personnel<br />
plus an additional 20,000 members<br />
of the Air Force Reserves and Air<br />
National Guard. The challenge<br />
was to increase information<br />
transparency and transform<br />
raw information into actionable<br />
knowledge. The organisation<br />
needed access to mission critical<br />
information to improve decision<br />
making and provide stakeholders<br />
throughout the organisation with<br />
relevant and timely information.<br />
The AFMS initially deployed<br />
SharePoint and conceptClassifier<br />
for SharePoint over six years ago<br />
due to the ability to automatically<br />
generate conceptual metadata, autoclassify<br />
the content, and utilise the<br />
powerful taxonomy capabilities<br />
to power its knowledge portal to<br />
improve search outcomes. It has<br />
subsequently extended the use of the<br />
technologies to address migration,<br />
records management, Freedom of<br />
Information Act, eDiscovery and<br />
data privacy protection.<br />
Customer, staff, organisational<br />
needs, internal perceptions,<br />
motivations, strategies, relevant<br />
knowledge and awareness of human<br />
and financial capital resources<br />
combine to serve as the foundation<br />
from which raw information is<br />
transformed into something that<br />
is actionable within a business<br />
operation. The AFMS realised<br />
significant benefits:<br />
(1) For leadership, the company<br />
is able to rapidly organise its<br />
organisation’s explicit and implicit<br />
content to facilitate more effective<br />
communication and decision making<br />
(2) For staff, cross-functional<br />
operating units are able to push<br />
relevant information to interested<br />
persons, reduce process timeline,<br />
utilise untapped resources, and<br />
enhance outcome quality<br />
(3) For the organisation, it<br />
avails contemporary and relevant<br />
information that assists and<br />
expedites task performance and<br />
decision making, advancing<br />
individual and group performance<br />
via enhanced situational and issuespecific<br />
knowledge.<br />
“Within the AFMS, the beginning<br />
of the information management<br />
lifecycle often starts with the creation<br />
of a Microsoft Office document that<br />
gets saved into various document<br />
management systems and file<br />
servers,” says Lt Col James D.<br />
Whitlock, USAF, MSC, Chief,<br />
Decision Support Branch, AFMS.<br />
“Incorporating Concept Searching’s<br />
compound term processing engine<br />
capability into AFMS’ knowledge<br />
management operations has<br />
increased exposure of enterprise<br />
content and the precision by which<br />
that information is retrieved.”<br />
“In addition to eliminating<br />
the cost associated with manual<br />
tagging and filing of information<br />
assets, Concept Searching provides<br />
our subject matter experts with a<br />
user-friendly user interface enabling<br />
the development of controlled<br />
vocabularies that can be used to<br />
filter search results and auto-classify<br />
content to folder structures,”<br />

Motor Vehicle Periodical Inspection<br />
Making business easier<br />
Motor Vehicle Periodical<br />
Inspection (MVPI) is an<br />
authorised agency in the Kingdom<br />
of Saudi Arabia for vehicle<br />
component diagnostic systems<br />
for the transport industry. It<br />
evaluates vehicle condition and<br />
performance through a wide<br />
range of parameters including<br />
brake efficiency, steering,<br />
suspension, exhaust emissions<br />
and wheel alignment. MVPI<br />
employs advanced equipment<br />
and technologies imported from<br />
Europe and Japan to serve this<br />
purpose. E-enterprises (E2)<br />
played a significant role in<br />
providing an end-to-end state of<br />
the art vehicle inspection system<br />
(VIS) solution, which automates<br />
its business cohesive with its<br />
inspection equipment systems<br />
and enterprise resource planning<br />
(ERP) systems, correspondingly<br />
making it easy to provide various<br />
departments with relevant vital<br />
statistical data for their industry.<br />
MVPI was in need of an<br />
advanced enterprise-level solution<br />
that would meet the General Traffic<br />
Directorate (GTD) requirements<br />
for interacting with its system<br />
based on its standards, integrate<br />
with its old legacy systems running<br />
on disparate technologies and also<br />
unite with its new ERP system.<br />
This would importantly provide<br />
precision of information and<br />
details to the finance and revenue,<br />
technical, quality control and<br />
human resource departments. The<br />
system shares certain information<br />
with the Ministry of Interior, as per<br />
the agreement, to extend its service<br />
for residents.<br />
In 2008, MVPI enlisted E2 to<br />
provide the total open standard,<br />
new generation enterprise-level<br />
solution that would connect all<br />
of its stations throughout Saudi<br />
Arabia with the MVPI national<br />
headquarters (NHQ) (and would<br />
also provide the ability to include<br />
any new station that the MVPI may<br />
open in the future).<br />
“The VIS provided by<br />
E2 is a fully customised<br />
system and it makes our<br />
customers’ business easier<br />
through the real-time<br />
integration with GTD”<br />
E2 made full use of the rich<br />
Microsoft technology available<br />
to develop a scalable and robust<br />
solution compliant with MVPI’s<br />
requirements. The VIS system<br />
is developed using .NET and<br />
SQL Server technology and runs<br />
on a Windows platform, thus<br />
providing a paradigm of ease for<br />
a user-friendly experience. Each<br />
station’s VIS model is a standalone<br />
entity fully integrated with<br />
MVPI NHQ through the Microsoft<br />
SQL Server Replication Services,<br />
to enable MVPI top management<br />
to remotely monitor them. The<br />
VIS system developed by E2’s<br />
software development team using<br />
.NET N-Tier technology consists of<br />
multiple applications, background<br />
services and tools to automate the<br />
whole business process, which took<br />
more than 2,000 man-days. E2 also<br />
provided support to help MVPI<br />
migrate its old legacy AS400 system<br />
to the new Microsoft Dynamics AX<br />
system, thus providing easy access<br />
to detailed financial aspects, human<br />
resources, real estate management,<br />
procurement and payroll.<br />
“The VIS provided by E2 is a<br />

Austrian federal ministries<br />
E-gov strategies<br />
The ‘ELAK im Bund’ (federal<br />
electronic file management) project<br />
is a European project for the<br />
implementation of e-government<br />
strategies. The federal ministries<br />
in Austria have been creating,<br />
managing and editing their files<br />
electronically since 2004. As the<br />
software supplier, Fabasoft is<br />
responsible for product updates and<br />
product developments (including,<br />
for example, ELAK Espresso and<br />
Dual Delivery) that provide a new<br />
degree of user-friendliness.<br />
The ELAK reference solution<br />
is run in a federal computer centre<br />
in a central hardware and software<br />
infrastructure based on Microsoft<br />
Windows Server and Microsoft SQL<br />
Server database. Regular software<br />
updates enhance user-friendliness<br />
and add new functionalities. The<br />
upgrade to Version 8 SP1 of Fabasoft<br />
eGov-Suite took place in 2010<br />
to provide further e-government<br />
functionalities, such as the full<br />
text search Mindbreeze Enterprise<br />
Search 3.0 and electronic delivery.<br />
The federal electronic file<br />
management project ‘ELAK im Bund’<br />
is part of the Austrian e-government<br />
strategy, which aims to enhance<br />
the services provided by the federal<br />
administration. The comprehensive<br />
implementation of electronic files is<br />
intended to result in all central offices<br />
of the federal ministries replacing<br />
paper files with electronic files.<br />
ELAK thus means a completely<br />
automated handling of business<br />
p r o c e s s e s a n d s e a m l e s s<br />
administrative cooperation between<br />
the respective authorities. The<br />
project began in July 2001 and an<br />
international tender was issued<br />
in 2002 to find the right partner<br />
to implement the electronic<br />
file management system. The<br />
specification catalogue of ELAK<br />
Concept 1.1. served as the basis for<br />
the tendering process.<br />
In 2003 Fabasoft, as a<br />
subcontractor of the ELAK<br />
consortium, was appointed to<br />
implement the electronic file system<br />
based on Fabasoft eGov-Suite. In the<br />
course of an intensive testing phase it<br />
became clear that with Fabasoft eGov-<br />
Suite, virtually all of the over 800<br />
requirements of ELAK Concept 1.1.<br />
and the single-product strategy of the<br />
Republic of Austria were fulfilled. The<br />
rollout at 12 federal ministries started<br />
in February 2004 and was completed<br />
in February 2005. With upgrades to<br />
Fabasoft eGov-Suite Version 7.0<br />
SP1 in 2008 and Version 8 SP1<br />
in 2010, additional functionalities<br />
such as extended e-government<br />
opportunities, Mindbreeze Enterprise<br />
Search, dual delivery and digital<br />
signature have been made available,<br />
as well as specific support for<br />
subordinated agencies.<br />
Fabasoft operations managers<br />
support ELAK operators to ensure<br />
the system runs smoothly. No<br />
downtime is allowed. Thanks to the<br />
introduction of ELAK, the Austrian<br />
federal administration has been<br />
able to considerably improve its<br />
service performance. The inspection<br />
and exchange of correspondence<br />
between departments now takes<br />
place, to a large extent, electronically.<br />
This greatly reduces the time it<br />
takes to deal with administrative<br />
processes. The concept means that<br />
it will be possible to expand the<br />
solution to offices and departments<br />
beyond the current scope. The<br />
electronic file system replaces paperbased<br />
files at federal level.<br />
The system has 10,000 users,<br />
over 10 terabytes of content, and<br />
over 120 million objects divided<br />
between two computer centres and<br />
one backup computer centre (more<br />
than 100 terabytes of storage).<br />
Processing times have been<br />
reduced by 10 to 15 per cent, files<br />
and documents can be processed<br />
on an inter-ministerial level and<br />
a comprehensive document<br />
management system is included.<br />
There is 24/7 availability of ELAK<br />
based on defined service levels.<br />

MyClinic<br />
Changing the way the<br />
system works<br />
First Impression MyClinic,<br />
Denmark is leading the way by<br />
developing the electronic health<br />
record (EHR) solution MyClinic; it<br />
is an advanced and elegant solution<br />
solving health care documentation<br />
in a valuable manner.<br />
The healthcare <strong>sector</strong> in Denmark<br />
has for several years been at the forefron<br />
in computerised documentations for<br />
health care services. An advanced EHR<br />
system has been developed by First<br />
Impression MyClinic. The company<br />
has created a solution to enhance<br />
structured information flow between<br />
patient and health professionals and<br />
through which all administrative<br />
workflows and management<br />
information is available.<br />
Microsoft’s partner First Impression<br />
MyClinic provides a modern EHR<br />
solution built on Microsoft Dynamics<br />
AX. This means no more outdated and<br />
archaic patient records, no islands of<br />
data or autonomous spreadsheets.<br />
This solution links together all<br />
information into a central database,<br />
The Hierarchical Electronic Medical<br />
Record, with diagnosis as the main<br />
element. Linked to each patient<br />
course is all the connecting data<br />
including internal notes, discharge<br />
notes, medication, laboratory and<br />
ancillary data – all collected in a subwindow<br />
showing the information in<br />
chronological order with an overview<br />
of each diagnosis – the user might<br />
even set up their own views. This is a<br />
unique way of handling and showing<br />
complex data – an accessible overview<br />
with the option for deeper analysis.<br />
There is also concurrent data<br />
relating to medication, The Drug<br />
Record, showing prescription and<br />
drug dose history. The record will<br />
show how the patient has responded<br />
to certain treatments and therefore<br />
the relationship between treatment,<br />
medication and clinical measures will<br />
appear and allow for the planning and<br />
execution of future treatment.<br />
Graphics are a highly important<br />
element of the solution. Graphs are<br />
used to provide a fast overview of large<br />
amount of data and can display patient<br />
history, as well as being incorporated<br />
into preventative health care. A simple<br />
example of the latter would be that<br />
MyClinic automatically calculates<br />
Body Mass Index (BMI) and so has<br />
the means to display developments of<br />
patients’ BMI during the last decade.<br />
The advantages of implementing<br />
such a solution are obvious: to have<br />
a patient’s medical history and<br />
examination results readily available<br />
will save time in initial diagnosis. From<br />
there, guides will ensure that the proper<br />
examinations are carried out, and that<br />
all aspects are taken into consideration,<br />
while seeing their previous treatment<br />
record will save time and resources in<br />
“The health industry<br />
is one of the most<br />
technically advanced<br />
<strong>sector</strong>s in the world, but<br />
the documentation and<br />
availability of patient<br />
records is often seen as<br />
outdated and archaic”<br />
avoiding repetition of the unsuccessful<br />
treatments of the past.<br />
MyClinic is being used in an<br />
ever-growing amount of clinics,<br />
private hospitals and county health<br />
services. Due to its very nature, the<br />
solution is adaptable to the needs of<br />
its user – the largest installation so<br />
far holds complete electronic health<br />
records for more than 800,000<br />
people, while picking information<br />
out is virtually instantaneous.<br />

Eagle Crisis Management System<br />
When disaster strikes...<br />
When disaster strikes, it is vital for<br />
the various rescue and emergency<br />
organisations to be able to share the<br />
exact same up-to-date information,<br />
be it spatial, textual or otherwise.<br />
This shared information is known<br />
as the common operational picture.<br />
Microsoft, Geodan and Esri<br />
Nederland together have developed<br />
the Eagle Crisis Management<br />
System, which makes it possible<br />
to create a common operational<br />
picture. By applying the concept<br />
of ‘working netcentrically’ this<br />
system supports the emergency<br />
services in the field and provides<br />
the organisations involved with<br />
up-to-the minute information at the<br />
right time during a crisis situation.<br />
The Middle Gelderland region of<br />
the eastern Netherlands is home to<br />
approximately 700,000 residents<br />
living in 16 municipalities. With<br />
more than 1,000 employees, the<br />
Emergency Service Region oversees<br />
the fire brigades, ambulance crews,<br />
police, and public health services, as<br />
well as providing disaster response<br />
services for floods and forest fires.<br />
Like many emergency response<br />
agencies around the world, the Middle<br />
Gelderland Emergency Service Region<br />
is required to coordinate operations<br />
with several other organisations in the<br />
event of a disaster.<br />
In emergency response<br />
situations every minute is critical,<br />
and coordinating multiple agencies<br />
quickly is essential to a fast and<br />
effective operation. However, the<br />
information systems used by the<br />
Emergency Service Region often<br />
created frustrations for emergency<br />
response staff. Not satisfied with<br />
its current system, the Emergency<br />
Service Region embarked on an effort<br />
to develop a new IT solution that<br />
would help it respond as quickly and<br />
effectively as possible to any disaster,<br />
while enhancing functionality for dayto-day<br />
responsibilities.<br />
On the basis of the identified<br />
requirements, Geodan, Esri<br />
Nederland and Microsoft developed<br />
a new system with the following key<br />
features: situational awareness; realtime<br />
location awareness; sharing<br />
data among different organisations;<br />
large data-flows, allows collaboration<br />
between (different) organisations;<br />
supports strategic, tactical and<br />
operational levels; works under<br />
extreme conditions and is based<br />
on applications that are used in<br />
day-to-day operations. Based on its<br />
experience, the Middle Gelderland<br />
Emergency Service Region estimates<br />
that the Eagle Suite has allowed<br />
them to cut 20 minutes off each 60<br />
minute status meeting, which lets<br />
them take action much faster.<br />
Eagle has been successfully tested<br />
and evaluated in large-scale reallife<br />
exercises. Based on the positive<br />
evaluations of two exercises, Eagle<br />
has won the prominent Dutch <strong>Public</strong><br />
Safety Award 2008.<br />
The flood disaster in Pakistan that<br />
started in August 2010 is possibly the<br />
largest disaster in recent history in<br />
terms of number of people affected.<br />
A team of volunteers from the Eagle<br />
joint venture (worked locally to<br />
install, train and implement the Eagle<br />
Crisis Management System. The aim<br />
was to quickly collect mapping and<br />
relief knowledge to help the people<br />
of Pakistan to cope with the disaster.<br />
What makes Eagle so special is that<br />
the information is linked directly to<br />
a map. The map, together with the<br />
text, forms a powerful combination,<br />
which enhances decision making<br />
and the speed at which action can be<br />
taken in an emergency. Built on top<br />
of Microsoft Groove and SharePoint,<br />
the Eagle Disaster Management Suite<br />
is as easy to use as Microsoft Office.<br />

Sochi 2014 Organizing Committee<br />
Ahead of the game<br />
On 4 July 2007, the International<br />
Olympic Committee chose Sochi<br />
to host the XXII Winter Olympics<br />
and XI Winter Paralympics in<br />
2014. Thanks to this decision<br />
Russia won the right to host the<br />
Winter Olympics for the first time<br />
ever. The Sochi 2014 Organizing<br />
Committee is responsible for<br />
preparing, implementing, and<br />
conducting the Games, and was<br />
established in October 2007.<br />
Establishing a corporate<br />
information management system<br />
plays an important role in the process<br />
of preparing for the event. The system<br />
is designed to support the work of the<br />
Sochi 2014 Organizing Committee<br />
in all key activity areas and at all<br />
stages. Each of these stages features<br />
great changes in the principles of<br />
management accounting, business<br />
processes, and organisational and<br />
functional structure.<br />
A range of criteria were taken<br />
into account when choosing a<br />
system, including flexibility and<br />
scalability, the ability to support the<br />
complex organisational structure of<br />
the Organizing Committee and the<br />
principle of separate subdivisions,<br />
productivity, compliance to<br />
the technological platform and<br />
compatibility with already-existing<br />
IT architecture, and finally user<br />
convenience and other parameters.<br />
The Organizing Committee chose<br />
the Microsoft Dynamics AX system.<br />
GMCS, a leading consulting company<br />
in the IT <strong>sector</strong> that works in the<br />
Russian market, was selected as one<br />
of the system integrators. Financial,<br />
tax and management accounting,<br />
treasury, budgeting, investment<br />
flow management, logistics and<br />
procurement management, and<br />
documentation flows were all<br />
automated in a short time.<br />
The corporate management<br />
system has been in constant use<br />
since Spring 2009, linking the<br />
Organizing Committee’s offices<br />
in Moscow and Sochi into a<br />
united informational space. The<br />
Committee has gained a number<br />
of advantages. It can effectively<br />
plan its requirements for goods<br />
and services, as well as manage<br />
its costs when making purchases.<br />
In particular, an integrated<br />
approach is used when planning<br />
purchasing and financial activity,<br />
which makes it possible to perform<br />
both ‘descending’ and ‘ascending’<br />
financial planning for the required<br />
periods of detail. Furthermore,<br />
monitoring the whole cycle of<br />
purchasing activity has become<br />
much simpler.<br />
The amount of time needed<br />
to prepare and approve budgets<br />
has been reduced, while the<br />
effectiveness of control over<br />
budget fulfilment has increased.<br />
The system enables the control<br />
budget fulfilment after receiving<br />
final factual results for income<br />
and expenditures, and to compare<br />
planned and factual results and<br />
analyse deviations. The total<br />
budget for the Games is corrected<br />
based on the data received, and the<br />
activity of functional subdivisions of<br />
the Organizing Committee for the<br />
period is evaluated.<br />
The efficiency and accuracy<br />
of accounting formed by the<br />
Organization Committee both<br />
for the International Olympic<br />
Committee and sponsors of the<br />
Games as well as for internal use<br />
increases. The ability to reconcile<br />
documents in electronic form<br />
further increases the Organizing<br />
Committee’s ability to fulfil its<br />
green office programme. Technical<br />
support is ensured over the whole<br />
period of use of the system by<br />
GMCS, including functionality<br />
implemented by other contractors<br />
(personnel management), and<br />
further development of the system<br />
in accordance with the changing<br />
demands of the Organizing<br />
Committee.<br />

IABAS and SPDM<br />
Knowledge is power<br />
HIS – e-Health Innovation Systems<br />
is a Portuguese company focused<br />
on health information technology<br />
systems. It was founded in May<br />
2007 as a result of a technologybased<br />
spin-off from the University<br />
of Coimbra and Pedro Nunes<br />
Institute in Portugal.<br />
In 2010, HIS became a member<br />
of the Ongoing Group companies’<br />
portfolio (one of the major TMT<br />
groups with a strategic focus on the<br />
Portuguese speaking countries),<br />
which was already established<br />
in Portugal, Brazil, Angola,<br />
Mozambique, Esta-Timor and<br />
Macau.<br />
VITAHISCARE, a product<br />
designed by HIS, is an information<br />
system oriented towards the<br />
integrated management of<br />
patients’ clinical processes,<br />
as well as administrative and<br />
financial activities, ensuring the<br />
management of healthcare facilities.<br />
It is a versatile solution that covers<br />
primary care, secondary care (such<br />
as hospitals and clinics) and social<br />
care (mainly home care), ensuring<br />
confidentiality and support for<br />
user profile differentiation in<br />
information handling. It also<br />
helps to improve the quality of<br />
the information through action<br />
protocols and international clinical<br />
decision support guidelines.<br />
The product is easily and highly<br />
customisable (with a clean and<br />
user-friendly interface), based on<br />
workflows and patient-centred.<br />
Therefore, given its features and<br />
the ability to be configured at<br />
an institution’s wish, it is a very<br />
competitive solution, perfectly<br />
suited for the management of any<br />
healthcare facility.<br />
Since its inception, HIS has<br />
followed a path that is closely<br />
connected to Microsoft. Starting<br />
from the several competencies<br />
acquired at the Microsoft partner<br />
network, HIS has always followed<br />
innovation programmes and other<br />
early adopter initiatives.<br />
IABAS and SPDM are Brazilian<br />
non governmental organisations<br />
responsible for managing more<br />
than 100 health care family clinics<br />
based in Rio de Janeiro. The<br />
Brazilian authorities are strongly<br />
committed to the success of their<br />
Programa de Saúde da Família,<br />
and a key concept is the ability<br />
to deliver effective care closely to<br />
the communities. Thus, giving<br />
mobility to the health care staff and<br />
having one patient-centred clinical<br />
information system were decisive<br />
for VITAHISCARE selection.<br />
In this implementation, the<br />
units have installed VITAHISCARE<br />
Primary Care Solution (patient<br />
registration and appointment<br />
scheduling, clinical information<br />
regarding primary care programmes<br />
such as diabetes, hypertension,<br />
child health, maternal health, oral<br />
health, cancer prevention and<br />
specific areas like tuberculosis<br />
and HIV), electronic prescribing<br />
and statistical reports with georeferenced<br />
information. This<br />
project also involves a mobility<br />
product from VITAHISCARE that<br />
allows employees to access and<br />
register information at the point of<br />
care: at people’s home.<br />
In the current scenario<br />
VITAHISCARE uses technologies<br />
like Microsoft Internet Information<br />
Services, .NET Framework,<br />
Windows Presentation Foundation<br />
and SQL Server 2008. Better<br />
knowledge about the population<br />
‘s health status will provide the<br />
ability to promote effective resource<br />
management and to conduct<br />
preventive health measures more<br />
suitable for each community, family<br />
or patient.<br />

European hospitals<br />
Patient flow<br />
visualisation<br />
Clinical processes can be<br />
characterised as non-deterministic,<br />
meaning that beforehand you<br />
don’t know which core actions are<br />
to be performed, the order and<br />
the actor(s) responsible for them.<br />
These types of processes are more<br />
appropriately characterised as<br />
problem solving activities. The exact<br />
flow of activities is case dependent<br />
(for example the health issue of<br />
the patient), and the decisions that<br />
individual participants make is<br />
based on their assessment of this<br />
problem and their knowledge. A<br />
complicating factor is that health<br />
professionals are working on<br />
multiple problems at once. A proper<br />
solution to help clinical staff deal<br />
with these challenges does not lie in<br />
controlling the flow of work, but in<br />
providing all those involved with a<br />
360-degree real-time overview of the<br />
patient’s status and progress of care.<br />
“By making the process<br />
transparent to all those involved, the<br />
users can properly coordinate their<br />
work – coordination is facilitated but<br />
not forced upon them,” says Morten<br />
Andresen, CEO of Imatis.<br />
Norwegian health care specialist,<br />
Imatis, in cooperation with<br />
European hospitals, has developed<br />
a comprehensive enterprise wide<br />
patient care visibility system IMATIS<br />
Visi that provides a 360-degree view<br />
of patient flow. In the emergency<br />
department, operating room, intensive<br />
care unit, pre/post operation and other<br />
inpatient wards, IMATIS Visi provides<br />
all employees, including clinicians,<br />
management, and others with aroundthe-clock,<br />
real-time information about<br />
patient location, diagnosis, planned<br />
actions, order status and results, alerts,<br />
resources the patient is waiting for and<br />
expected discharge time. All of this<br />
information is visually displayed on<br />
electronic patient care communication<br />
boards tailored to each department’s<br />
need.<br />
IMATIS Visi has been developed<br />
using state of the art technology from<br />
Microsoft like Silverlight, SQL Server<br />
and BizTalk.<br />
The goal of IMATIS Visi is to make it<br />
easier to get a real-time overview of key<br />
information regarding patients and<br />
resources in the department/ward in<br />
order to mange workflow and patient<br />
flow better. An important benefit is<br />
that the system allows users to see an<br />
overview of a patient’s status without<br />
disturbing the workflow. Ordinarily,<br />
clinicians spend a lot of time locating<br />
patients or calling other departments<br />
to inquire about test results, etc. This<br />
time can now be dramatically reduced<br />
and will result in improved efficiency<br />
and a decreased level of stress on<br />
hospital staff. Research has shown<br />
that hospitals who have implemented<br />
patient flow visualisation solutions<br />
have had significant improvement<br />
in productivity, in addition to more<br />
satisfied patients and improved<br />
control over logistics and patient flow.<br />

Induct Open Innovation community<br />
Healthcare innovation<br />
The KASK Innovation project<br />
was initiated by the European<br />
Union to exploit the enormous<br />
innovation potential present<br />
in the healthcare <strong>sector</strong>. It is a<br />
collaborative project involving<br />
participation by three university<br />
hospitals: Aalborg Sygehus<br />
from Denmark, Oslo University<br />
Hospital from Norway, and<br />
Sahlgrenska University Hospital<br />
from Sweden. Using collaborative<br />
innovation management software<br />
from Induct Software of Norway,<br />
the hospitals have formed an open<br />
healthcare innovation zone.<br />
There has been an increased focus<br />
on innovation at global level and has<br />
become a competitive parameter to<br />
which companies in both the private<br />
and public <strong>sector</strong>s will have to relate.<br />
The KASK region contains strong<br />
knowledge environments related to<br />
healthcare in general. Of particular<br />
interest are the major university<br />
and regional hospitals. The areas of<br />
competition for the hospitals include<br />
the successful implementation of<br />
continuous patient progress, patient<br />
satisfaction, increased efficiency and<br />
productivity, and technology transfer<br />
and spin-off businesses. The increased<br />
focus on innovation is a challenge<br />
that opens new perspectives for<br />
systematic innovation across national<br />
borders . The institutions and regions<br />
which develop and implement new<br />
innovative concepts will be the future<br />
winners. There is a great potential for<br />
commercialisation and dissemination<br />
of research and innovation in these<br />
knowledge communities.<br />
Cross-border cooperation will<br />
enable hospitals to utilise experience<br />
and knowledge in organisations<br />
related to research and development,<br />
and commercialisation. The partners<br />
will jointly build an infrastructure for<br />
the development of innovation and<br />
commercialisation of research, which<br />
will lead to increased innovation,<br />
more efficiency, and savings.<br />
Induct Software is working<br />
with the hospital in order to<br />
provide optimal handling of the<br />
entire innovation process and to<br />
create an environment of dialogue<br />
and involvement in innovation.<br />
This powerful solution, based on<br />
Microsoft .NET and SQL Server will<br />
be further developed in collaboration<br />
with health authorities to meet the<br />
complexities and cultural challenges<br />
in the health <strong>sector</strong>, as well as fully<br />
utilising elements such as Microsoft<br />
FAST ESP search capabilities and<br />
SQL Azure.<br />
Dr. Kari J. Kværner, director<br />
of innovation at Oslo University<br />
Hospital and Professor at the<br />
University of Oslo, says: “Induct<br />
enables us to significantly increase<br />
the innovation capacity within<br />
Oslo University Hospital.” The<br />
project is tied into research projects<br />
in cooperation with SINTEF and<br />
doctoral candidates.<br />
The Induct solution will provide<br />
a convenient way for employees<br />
to report suggestions for new<br />
ideas or improvements related to<br />
process, service, or product. The<br />
platform will contribute to optimal<br />
handling of the entire innovation<br />
process, from registration to<br />
implementation, and ensure a good<br />
utilisation of overall organisational<br />
competence. Development and<br />
deployment of the solution will<br />
take place in phases and in close<br />
interaction with relevant user<br />
communities. The potential for this<br />
type of platform goes far beyond the<br />
KASK region’s needs. It has already<br />
been used to establish contact with<br />
other healthcare stakeholders, and<br />
has been delivered to several other<br />
market <strong>sector</strong>s across the globe.<br />
The use of Open Innovation<br />
among these university hospitals<br />
using Induct’s innovation<br />
management platform is currently<br />
underway and looks promising for<br />
the future.<br />

Finland’s state Treasury<br />
Providing a connection<br />
The State Treasury is a service<br />
agency managed by Finland’s<br />
Ministry of Finance. It is<br />
responsible for the government’s<br />
internal financial and fiscal<br />
administration, arrangements<br />
for damage compensation and<br />
injuries suffered by military<br />
personnel, and veterans’ affairs. It<br />
also develops shared government<br />
IT systems and support services<br />
for financial and human<br />
resources management, as well<br />
as promoting the development<br />
of the government’s working<br />
communities.<br />
By government mandate, the<br />
State Treasury is additionally<br />
responsible for administering the<br />
Citizen’s Account, a special service<br />
which provides a secure channel<br />
for electronic communications,<br />
notifications and messages between<br />
government authorities and the<br />
public. All service providers in<br />
central and local government can<br />
register to use the Citizen’s Account.<br />
The service offers a single<br />
client interface between public<br />
administrative bodies and citizens.<br />
Using their personal e-service<br />
account (e-account), members of<br />
the public can communicate with<br />
the authorities at any time and from<br />
any location. Upon completion of a<br />
transaction, the authority concerned<br />
can notify a client of its decision<br />
directly via an e-account in real time.<br />
The Citizen’s Account is a<br />
labour-saving convenience for<br />
public bodies as it accelerates the<br />
process of handling transactions.<br />
It makes the processes of issuing<br />
requests for additional information<br />
and notifying clients of decisions<br />
much easier. Official notification<br />
procedures can also be handled in<br />
a more flexible manner. Requests<br />
for additional information required<br />
to process incomplete transactions<br />
can also be handled. It is also<br />
expected to reduce both postage<br />
costs and the demand for phone<br />
services.<br />
Offering a one-stop shop, the<br />
Citizen’s Account helps build public<br />
trust and confidence in government<br />
services. The reduced need for paper<br />
transactions and postage is expected<br />
to cut costs. Enabling public bodies<br />
to contact clients in connection with<br />
ongoing transactions saves time. The<br />
Citizen’s Account also provides a<br />
common, standardised platform for<br />
future development.<br />
The Citizen’s Account must<br />
fulfil rigorous demands in terms of<br />
information security and the ability<br />
to support large numbers of users.<br />
Based on Microsoft technology<br />
including Microsoft Windows Server,<br />
SQL Server and Internet Information<br />
Services, the Citizen’s Account is a<br />
reliable, scalable and secure solution<br />
and represents a good example of an<br />
implementation of this technicallydemanding<br />
application.<br />
The Citizen’s Account is part<br />
of the Suomi.fi public services<br />

Wolverhampton City Council, UK<br />
Overcoming challenges<br />
Wolverhampton City Council<br />
(WCC) is a local authority in the<br />
UK with responsibility for meeting<br />
the needs of the area’s schools. Its<br />
vision is to ‘place children, young<br />
people and their families at the<br />
heart of an e-enabled system’ in<br />
order to transform education and<br />
overcome the social and economic<br />
challenges across the city.<br />
WCC wanted a technology<br />
platform that would help it<br />
build a more socially cohesive<br />
community, with strong Web<br />
presence available 24/7. It realised<br />
it had to provide a highly secure,<br />
yet collaborative platform, which<br />
would allow schools to engage<br />
teachers, learners and parents. UK<br />
government aspirations to harness<br />
technology to enhance learning,<br />
elicit student voice and widen<br />
parental engagement were slow to<br />
produce success stories and WCC<br />
were cognisant that a technology<br />
solution alone would not be<br />
enough. It had to be paired with a<br />
sound pedagogical approach.<br />
WCC selected Learning<br />
Possibilities as a partner and<br />
‘Engage’ was born – a collaborative<br />
platform designed to meet the<br />
needs of Wolverhampton’s learning<br />
community and to facilitate and<br />
bring together rich and innovative<br />
education practices. Dave Whyley,<br />
e-Services team, Wolverhampton<br />
City Council, describes it as: “The<br />
glue which brings all our school<br />
improvement, policy areas and<br />
transformation initiatives together.”<br />
The solution is built upon<br />
Microsoft’s Learning Gateway:<br />
SharePoint and Exchange providing<br />
a robust communication and<br />
collaboration platform. Microsoft’s<br />
Forefront Threat Management<br />
Gateway (TMG) 2010 provided the<br />
highest levels of safety and security<br />
for the learners within the community<br />
– and allowed their data to be<br />
shared across agencies and schools.<br />
Each school was provided with<br />
its own LP+ learning portal sitting<br />
underneath ‘Engage’ with tool and<br />
content-rich virtual classrooms. The<br />
organisations also jointly authored<br />
ADOPT, a five-stage technology<br />
adoption framework which allows<br />
schools to measure successes in using<br />
Microsoft technologies and plan their<br />
‘pathway’ towards transformation –<br />
ADOPT would underpin pedagogical<br />
innovation.<br />
One year later, an independent<br />
review by Lancaster University<br />
highlighted significant benefits.<br />
Parents reported they felt better<br />
able to support their child’s<br />
learning. National school inspectors<br />
also acknowledged the benefits.<br />
According to the OFSTED school<br />
inspection report 2009: “Community<br />
cohesion is an increasing strength<br />
... the school learning platform<br />
allows for communication with<br />
parents, governors and the wider<br />
community.”<br />
Collaboration projects between<br />
schools have shaped innovative<br />
teaching and learners are more<br />
engaged – 20 per cent of pupils<br />
improved participation in learning;<br />
more homework was completed;<br />
pupils’ sense of responsibility and<br />
behaviour was improved; and<br />
pupils were extended in learning<br />
for longer periods of time and<br />
during extended hours. Attainment<br />
also increased: pupils’ ability to<br />
reason was improved through<br />
online working; pupils had more<br />
time to think and to reference<br />
opinions or related learning; and<br />
a broader range of ability groups<br />
were engaged. The report also<br />

UnEP; Secretariats of the Basel, Rotterdam and Stockholm Conventions<br />
Inter-office cooperation<br />
The United Nations Environmental<br />
Programme (UNEP) gets a jump<br />
on the rest of the organisation<br />
by adopting a simple document<br />
management solution that allows<br />
it to eliminate paper files, share<br />
legal records across borders, and<br />
automate procedures.<br />
Osmany Pereira Gonzalez<br />
heads the joint services of the<br />
Basel, Rotterdam and Stockholm<br />
C o n v e n t i o n s i n G e n e v a ,<br />
Switzerland. The office is one of<br />
several UN locations that assist in<br />
implementing three multilateral<br />
treaties on hazardous materials.<br />
Each legal instrument covers<br />
different aspects of international<br />
chemical production, use, trade,<br />
and disposal.<br />
Most of its mission, Pereira says, is<br />
informational. His office delivers the<br />
appropriate technical and legal details<br />
to governments and corporations<br />
seeking compliance. “When<br />
countries commit to a legally binding<br />
agreement, information becomes<br />
a valuable tool,” says Pereira. “A<br />
lot of our work is ensuring that the<br />
proper information gets to the right<br />
people at the right time, which is why<br />
information technology is so central<br />
to our success.”<br />
The Geneva Joint Services<br />
office was established shortly after<br />
the Rotterdam and Stockholm<br />
Conventions became active.<br />
Although tasked with a new<br />
mission, the office inherited<br />
technical and business processes<br />
from its parent UN organisation.<br />
The new department was resourced<br />
with Windows-based PCs and<br />
servers using Microsoft’s .NET<br />
Framework, but it still relied heavily<br />
on paper file systems.<br />
“The bulk of the United Nations<br />
has been slow to adopt new<br />
technologies,” he explains. “At the<br />
start, we had a lot of processes that<br />
were still stuck in the 1960s, when<br />
they wrote letters and memos on<br />
typewriters.”<br />
Pereira and his staff recognised<br />
the inefficiencies of paper files and<br />
foresaw the difficulty in fulfilling<br />
its global mission using outdated<br />
methods. Sharing documentation<br />
among other UN locations seemed<br />
cumbersome. For example, the office<br />
shared paper records with the Food<br />
and Agricultural Organization (FAO)<br />
based in Rome, Italy. Each time one<br />
office received a new document,<br />
it would send a fax to the other,<br />
indicating what items were added to<br />
the collective archives.<br />
Pereira and the head of IT,<br />
Federico Izzo, envisioned a system<br />
where employees could not only<br />
store, retrieve, and easily share all<br />
legal and technical content digitally,<br />
but could also track step-by-step<br />
procedures with workflow tools.<br />
“With only 70 employees, we<br />
have a relatively small office,” says<br />
Pereira, “but we have to serve the<br />
whole world – all regions and all<br />
conventions. We felt the office<br />
needed the capabilities that you<br />
find in an enterprise resource<br />
planning (ERP) system. We<br />
needed good systems to manage<br />
our documents, contacts, and<br />
networks while also effectively<br />
tracking our correspondence for<br />
official communications between<br />
the Secretariat and all participating<br />
nations.”<br />
The Geneva office of UNEP<br />
implemented a document<br />
management solution called M-Files<br />
developed by Motive Systems.<br />
In a multi-user environment,<br />
M-Files software runs on both<br />
client computers as well as the<br />
server. Individual users can access<br />
the M-Files Vault – a centralised<br />
repository of all documents in<br />
the organisation – much like they<br />
would a removable drive. Rather<br />
than storing digital files loosely<br />
defined in folders and subfolders,<br />
M-Files structures every document<br />
within a searchable database<br />
organised and indexed with user-<br />
www.onwindows.com
definable tags or properties, also<br />
known as metadata.<br />
“We decided to make an<br />
essential archive of our documents<br />
in M-Files and to use the indexing<br />
and notification features of M-Files<br />
to facilitate our day-to-day work,”<br />
says Pereira, who found the digital<br />
file solution very affordable to<br />
implement while providing all the<br />
essential features:<br />
Simple metadata indexing of<br />
files: The indexing method behind<br />
M-Files is easy to understand.<br />
In lieu of saving files in folder<br />
locations, a user ‘tags’ a document<br />
with descriptive key words or<br />
category names. The document<br />
can later be quickly retrieved by<br />
searching on any of these terms.<br />
High-volume imaging: The office<br />
could easily convert old paper records<br />
into a fully indexed, searchable digital<br />
archive. M-Files can import digital<br />
scans in large quantities, assigning<br />
appropriate metadata key terms to<br />
stacks of related documents. M-Files<br />
also automatically indexes incoming<br />
faxes and e-mails.<br />
Full integration with Windows:<br />
Rather than a separate application<br />
or software program with a new<br />
user interface to learn, M-Files is<br />
deeply integrated into Windows<br />
Explorer and it can be accessed<br />
through the standard open/<br />
save commands of all Windows<br />
applications, just like a typical hard<br />
drive on the user’s PC. The familiar<br />
interface eased the staff’s gradual<br />
transition to paperless processes.<br />
Remote access: UN workers in<br />
Rotterdam Convention offices<br />
in Rome also installed M-Files,<br />
allowing them to search and retrieve<br />
items in the archives in Geneva.<br />
“M-Files has resulted in a huge increase in productivity and<br />
accuracy in the performance of our agency”<br />
Workflow: A combination of<br />
special keyword tags, Microsoft<br />
Word templates, and M-Files<br />
automatic e-mail notifications,<br />
creates a simple but highly effective<br />
workflow structure that is easily<br />
customisable for any recurring task.<br />
For example, when a notification<br />
comes from a party to the Convention,<br />
nominating their Official Contact<br />
Point, the notification is first entered in<br />
a template form and saved in M-Files,<br />
and then the system automatically<br />
e-mails a notice to the staff lawyer for<br />
identity verification. Once approved,<br />
the save command triggers another<br />
e-mail request to data entry personnel,<br />
who then add the nominee as an official<br />
contact into the database. Pereora says:<br />
“M-Files reminds us of the steps in each<br />
process, and keeps the process on track<br />
and moving forward.”<br />
“M-Files has resulted in a huge<br />
increase in productivity and<br />
accuracy in the performance of our<br />
agency,” he adds.<br />
He sees M-Files as ideal for public<br />
<strong>sector</strong> offices that need to improve<br />
the way they manage documents<br />
and processes, but need to do so<br />
gradually – and inexpensively –<br />
without interruption in normal<br />
activities. “The significance is that<br />
M-Files achieves a paperless office in<br />
a very simple manner, making it easy<br />
to quickly get the benefits from the<br />
initial phase where people are just<br />
searching for files digitally, but it also<br />
provides the depth to take advantage<br />
of more sophisticated ways of<br />
utilising information technology,<br />
like workflows and shared archives,<br />
when the organisation is ready,”<br />
explains Pereira.<br />
The leadership of the United<br />
Nations has announced plans to<br />
implement an overarching document<br />
management system in a top-down<br />
implementation, although this<br />
ambitious plan will take some time to<br />
complete. In the meantime, Pereira<br />
is glad that the three Convention<br />
Secretariats have found a solution<br />
like M-Files to help them improve<br />
their digital filing and document<br />
management processes now.<br />
“Under the auspices of this<br />
particular project, we have created<br />
a kind of UN office prototype<br />
with M-Files,” says Pereira. “Other<br />
UN locations without electronic<br />
document management in place<br />
have become very interested in what<br />
we’ve done, and many are currently<br />
looking into whether they will buy<br />
M-Files and adopt this management<br />
system for themselves.”<br />

Neopost output management<br />
Serving one purpose<br />
Neopost output management<br />
solutions are not just for the<br />
public <strong>sector</strong>. This statement<br />
reflects the size and diversity of<br />
a company that works across<br />
almost 100 countries to serve<br />
800,000 customers, many of<br />
which belong to the world’s most<br />
prestigious public and private<br />
<strong>sector</strong> bodies. The size and variety<br />
of its marketplace means that<br />
Neopost’s products need to be as<br />
diverse as the customers it serves,<br />
from small and medium-sized<br />
institutions up to very large and<br />
multinational organisations.<br />
To research, develop and deploy<br />
its range of output management<br />
solutions, Neopost relies on the latest<br />
Microsoft technologies such as:<br />
• Team Foundation Server 2010<br />
for project management, work<br />
item tracking and version control<br />
• Visual Studio 2010 for<br />
application design and<br />
development<br />
• .NET Framework 4.0 as a<br />
dependable platform<br />
• Windows Presentation<br />
Foundation for a flexible, stateof-the-art<br />
user experience<br />
• ADO.NET Entity Framework for<br />
object-oriented data access<br />
• Microsoft SQL Server as a rocksolid<br />
and high-performance<br />
database<br />
• Microsoft Windows XP SP3,<br />
Windows 7, Windows Server<br />
2003 and 2008.<br />
Neopost’s output management<br />
solutions can accept a multitude of<br />
input files, create documents from<br />
raw data, enhance pre-formatted<br />
layouts and consolidate letters<br />
to reduce the number of mailing<br />
pieces. They offer pre-sort to<br />
qualify for postal discounts, spool<br />
scheduling for optimised printing<br />
and can automate folding and<br />
inserting whilst ensuring mail piece<br />
and mail batch integrity.<br />
Police forces in many countries<br />
rely heavily on Neopost’s output<br />
management solutions. Besides the<br />
obvious benefits to them such as cost<br />
reduction, automation and enhanced<br />
quality, police departments, as well<br />
as other institutions under public<br />
scrutiny, they have a strong need<br />
for predictability and measurability<br />
in order to be able to prove, if<br />
necessary, that they have followed<br />
the correct procedures.<br />
Combining multiple proven<br />
Neopost technologies into an<br />
integrated output management<br />
solution allows police forces to be<br />
in total control of applications like<br />
the generation, production and<br />
distribution of speeding tickets<br />
while also being able to reduce<br />
costs significantly. Furthermore,<br />
Neopost’s solutions help with<br />
common problems like being able to<br />
prove that certain documents were<br />
sent at a certain time. The inability<br />
to prove this can pose serious risks<br />
in the areas of legal compliance, cash<br />
collection and reputation.<br />
A user of Neopost’s output<br />
management solutions might<br />
send anything from 50 envelopes<br />
each week up to several million<br />
documents per year. This means that<br />
any customer segmentation, other<br />
than one based solely on the number<br />
of documents mailed, cannot be<br />
made without excluding certain<br />
customer groups. Nevertheless,<br />
Neopost has successfully provided<br />
public <strong>sector</strong> bodies such as tax<br />
offices, police forces, social services,<br />
councils, schools and universities<br />
with state-of-the-art solutions.<br />
Neopost provides compact, easyto-use<br />
applications as well as flexible,<br />
state-of-the-art enterprise output<br />
management solutions, with both<br />
serving one purpose: increasing the<br />
value of mail while decreasing the<br />
costs associated with the generation,<br />
production and distribution of<br />
mission-critical documents.<br />

The National Board of Health<br />
Consolidating on<br />
Dynamics CRM<br />
The National Board of Health is<br />
the most important healthcare<br />
authority in Denmark and its<br />
task, in collaboration with policy<br />
makers, is to create the best<br />
possible healthcare conditions for<br />
treatment and prevention.<br />
Like many other institutions and<br />
companies, the Board of Health has,<br />
over many years, developed a range<br />
of administrative, filing and archival<br />
systems to support its many tasks.<br />
Many of these systems have become<br />
outdated with high maintenance<br />
costs and were difficult to adapt to<br />
new business regulations and laws.<br />
At the same time, there was a need<br />
for further integration with external<br />
systems and document management,<br />
which could not easily be achieved<br />
with the existing technology.<br />
“Microsoft Dynamics<br />
CRM/xRM offers a high<br />
degree of flexibility in its<br />
operations and integrates<br />
easily with other internal<br />
and external systems”<br />
The Board of Health chose to<br />
consolidate a series of systems with<br />
Microsoft Dynamics CRM / xRM<br />
as the central platform for many<br />
applications. The platform offers the<br />
healthcare authority a high-degree<br />
of flexibility in its operations and<br />
integrates easily with other internal<br />
and external systems. At the same<br />
time, the platform also provides<br />
a familiar and intuitive interface<br />
for users across the applications<br />
supported by the platform.<br />
There is a wide range of business<br />
areas to be taken care of:<br />
• The Board of Health’s<br />
institute for radiation<br />
safety: public inquiries,<br />
monitoring, requirements and<br />
announcements, transport, and<br />
personal dosimetry<br />
• Monitoring of nursing homes<br />
• Monitoring of cosmetic<br />
treatments providers<br />
• The inspector system –<br />
quality assurance of teaching<br />
departments for physicians<br />
• Integration to NaviStat,<br />
ScanJour, CPR, CVR and<br />
barcode scanners.<br />
The solution was implemented in<br />
close collaboration with public health<br />
officer institutions throughout the<br />
country and the Board of Health’s<br />
staff in Copenhagen. The solution is<br />
designed so that the workflows are<br />
collected and integrated with other<br />
business systems to ensure that master<br />
data is complete and correct, that it is<br />
correctly filed and that the financial<br />
transactions are reconciled with<br />
the financial systems. By collecting<br />
items in a user interface, individual<br />
caseworkers have a constant overview<br />
of their cases, and it is easy for<br />
management and secretaries to pull<br />
statistics and reports.<br />
The platform was set up and<br />
the first solutions released for use<br />
in just six months. New solutions<br />
have been released on a quarterly<br />
basis, and the list of possible usage<br />
scenarios is growing as users get to<br />
know the possibilities of the flexible<br />
and user-friendly platform.<br />

Israeli Procurement Authority<br />
Implementation success<br />
Netwise Applications (Netwise)<br />
has unique, extensive and<br />
practical experience in the<br />
field of e-government. Over<br />
the past 13 years, the company<br />
has successfully implemented<br />
e-government projects for<br />
numerous governments and<br />
ministries around the world<br />
focusing on Africa and Eastern<br />
Europe, as well as for the<br />
government of Israel. Netwise has<br />
vast experience and best practices<br />
in consulting, design and<br />
development and implementation<br />
of e-government solutions – from<br />
national strategic consulting<br />
to architecture and application<br />
development at national, regional<br />
and local government levels.<br />
Netwise recently developed a<br />
national e-tendering solution for<br />
the Israeli Procurement Authority.<br />
The original e-tenders Web portal<br />
was developed by Netwise in<br />
2005. All tenders issued by the<br />
Israeli Government or by ministries<br />
were stored on the portal and<br />
were available to citizens and<br />
businesses. The portal included<br />
an advanced search capability on<br />
tenders, allowing sort and filtering<br />
on search results. It provided access<br />
to additional data and documents<br />
attached to tenders and supported<br />
payment settlement for tenders<br />
using different methods including<br />
credit card, bank account/direct<br />
debit or other third-party accounts.<br />
The portal provided subscription to<br />
a newsletter mailing list – with the<br />
ability to enrol for a mailing service<br />
and receive updates regarding new<br />
tenders.<br />
In early 2010 a newly developed<br />
Israeli e-tenders portal code named<br />
‘Menora’ was released by Netwise.<br />
It was developed using Microsoft<br />
.NET technology and offers extra<br />
features including online suppliers<br />
registration; support of smart<br />
card authentication by suppliers;<br />
payment for registration and for<br />
tenders; management of suppliers<br />
history; ability for registered<br />
suppliers to submit their proposals<br />
online and to upload relevant<br />
tender documents; dashboards<br />
supporting tracking, logging and<br />
monitoring; and an online bidding<br />
system – a rule-based selection of<br />
preferred bids according to a set<br />
of pre-defined rules (for example<br />
lowest price).<br />
The reverse auction application<br />
enables government bodies to<br />
instantly define a new auction and<br />
publish it to suppliers by e-mail.<br />
The application is divided into<br />
two main parts: back office – the<br />
government side of the application<br />
and front office – the supplier’s side<br />
of the application.<br />
In the back office the<br />
government bodies define auctions<br />
including start and finish time,<br />
category and all items needed in<br />
the auction including quantity per<br />
item, and special needs. When the<br />
auction is ready, it is published to<br />
all relevant suppliers by e-mail. In<br />
the front office the supplier can<br />
view the open auctions, view the<br />
best offer (best price per condition)<br />
for a specific item in an auction and<br />
add bids to items in open auctions.<br />
When the supplier has already<br />
bid for an open auction, he can<br />
compare the best offer with his own<br />
offer. When the auction is closed,<br />
the government body can select the<br />
winning offer and then complete<br />
the purchase process. The winning<br />
offer doesn’t have to be the cheapest<br />
offer; the government body can add<br />
their own considerations and rules<br />
for choosing the winning bid.<br />
The application values achieved<br />
followed main themes in the<br />
procurement process: increasing<br />
transparency and preventing<br />
corruption; increasing quality and<br />
efficiency; building capacities;<br />
enhancing professionalism and<br />
integrity; saving overhead costs; and<br />
reducing average suppliers costs.<br />

‘Loja Do Cidadão’ citizen stores<br />
One stop shop<br />
for public service<br />
Created in 1999, the ‘Loja do<br />
Cidadão’ is the first step in the<br />
one stop shop concept for public<br />
service. This is a public utility<br />
service that seeks to promote the<br />
modernisation of public services<br />
that cater for the needs of citizens<br />
and businesses, enabling access to<br />
a wide range of public and private<br />
services (utilities) that coexist<br />
in the same physical space. The<br />
common areas and the network of<br />
‘Loja do Cidadão’ stores are run<br />
by the Agency for Administrative<br />
Modernisation (AMA).<br />
In April 1999 the first store<br />
opened. The high flow of customers<br />
led to the implementation of a space<br />
management and statistical analysis<br />
system in order to reduce service<br />
times. The solution would have to<br />
meet specific needs and restrictions<br />
inherent to each one of the entities<br />
located in this public service space,<br />
providing AMA with accurate<br />
statistics on each service provided,<br />
at each one of the entities and their<br />
services.<br />
On 17 December 2008, the<br />
second generation ‘Loja do<br />
Cidadão’ store was opened in<br />
Odivelas, Portugal, based on a new<br />
service philosophy. For these stores,<br />
it was necessary to get the services<br />
out to the main entities within the<br />
more decentralised populations,<br />
with a smaller investment in terms<br />
of infrastructure and equipment<br />
installed.<br />
Newvision developed two types<br />
of service solutions, fully adapted<br />
and custom made for each one of the<br />
shop types. In the first generation<br />
stores, the Inline distributed<br />
solution has been implemented,<br />
which is characterised mainly by<br />
the existence of a local server in<br />
each store, replicating data from<br />
this local server to a central server<br />
at the AMA headquarters. Therefore<br />
AMA can manage and analyse the<br />
behaviour of all the stores at any<br />
time, and make changes in real<br />
time. This approach ensures the<br />
functioning of the stores even if<br />
there are communication cuts with<br />
the central server.<br />
The Inline centralised solution<br />
was implemented in the secondgeneration<br />
stores. All stores are<br />
now connected to a single server,<br />
allowing better management and<br />
less expensive computer resources.<br />
In these stores, the queue ticket<br />
numbers are called out on large TFT<br />
screens. The solutions are managed<br />
by different levels of permission<br />
and access and adapted to the<br />
organisational model of the entity.<br />
In 2008, two new and innovative<br />
services were created: the ‘I Lost<br />
my Wallet’ desk and the ‘Multiservice’<br />
desk. The ‘I Lost my Wallet’<br />
desk offers an integrated service,<br />
combined in one service desk, with<br />
the opportunity to request duplicates<br />
of several personal documents. This<br />
represents fewer losses of time and<br />
greater comfort to citizens who will<br />
no longer have to wait in multiple<br />
queues, or move about from service<br />
to service. The ‘Multi-service’ desk<br />
provides a generalist multi-functional<br />
service, which allows users to carry<br />
out several services of a reduced level<br />
of expertise, in one place and with a<br />
single queue ticket.<br />
The ‘Loja do Cidadão’ stores<br />
continue to expand, with new<br />
facilities planned for 2011.<br />
Newvision continues to supply<br />
the Inline solution, providing<br />
consulting services, maintenance<br />
and support for all the hardware<br />
and software systems installed.<br />

Nexor Watchman<br />
A more complex data<br />
management landscape<br />
Designed for any organisation that<br />
values a high degree of security<br />
and confidentiality in information<br />
systems, Nexor Watchman for<br />
Microsoft Forefront Unified<br />
Access Gateway (UAG) offers an<br />
industrial-strength information<br />
assurance (IA) solution to<br />
secure information exchange<br />
requirements. First developed for<br />
the UK intelligence community<br />
in the 1990s, Nexor Watchman<br />
is a mature, robust and versatile<br />
technology that has formed part of<br />
Nexor’s high assurance guard and<br />
gateway products for several years<br />
and is now available as a plug-in<br />
to UAG.<br />
Microsoft Forefront UAG<br />
provides a general framework to<br />
allow authenticated remote clients<br />
to securely access application data<br />
behind a corporate firewall over a<br />
Web connection. UAG provides<br />
controlled access to the application<br />
Web pages that serve the requested<br />
data. Nexor Watchman for UAG<br />
enhances the security model by<br />
scanning data returned in a Web<br />
request to check it is conformant<br />
to a security policy. The returned<br />
content is checked to ensure that<br />
it does not contain any confidential<br />
material, thereby ensuring that the<br />
data being retrieved is authorised<br />
for viewing by remote clients.<br />
In the 21st century, public safety<br />
and national security organisations<br />
face unprecedented challenges<br />
from a range of new behavioural,<br />
procedural and environmental<br />
factors. Increased instances of<br />
data loss or leakage, greater<br />
demand for collaborative working,<br />
a growing trend for remote and<br />
mobile working and the rise in<br />
information being exchanged on<br />
a ‘responsibility to provide’ basis<br />
rather than a ‘need to know’ basis<br />
all contribute to a more complex<br />
data management landscape. This<br />
is all set against a backdrop of<br />
the ever-increasing threat of cyber<br />
warfare, as well as the heightened<br />
risk of physical terrorist attack.<br />
To increase the protection of data<br />
in this complex environment, there<br />
has been a rise in the importance of<br />
data classification and labelling and<br />
the implementation of IA measures<br />
to ensure the confidentiality, integrity<br />
and availability of that data. A plethora<br />
of technology solutions exists to<br />
manage data in the unclassified space,<br />
but technology aimed at the high<br />
end of data classification with impact<br />

Wayne State University<br />
Putting the<br />
pieces together<br />
With more than 1,000 medical<br />
students, Wayne State University<br />
(WSU) School of Medicine is<br />
one of the largest institutions<br />
of its kind in the United States.<br />
Together with its clinical partner,<br />
the Wayne State University<br />
Physician Group, the school<br />
is a leader in patient care and<br />
medical research in a number of<br />
areas, including cancer, genetics,<br />
neuroscience and women’s and<br />
children’s health.<br />
Wayne State University<br />
Physician Group members provide<br />
world-class medical care while<br />
conducting groundbreaking<br />
research and continuing education<br />
at one of the US’s top medical<br />
universities. Group members are<br />
recognised leaders in their chosen<br />
specialties. WSU Physician Group<br />
doctors are connected to thousands<br />
of nationally and internationally<br />
known researchers on the cutting<br />
edge of medical advancement.<br />
The main challenge for WSU<br />
was the consolidation of data<br />
from separate systems for different<br />
entities. The Physician Group,<br />
which recently converted to<br />
Microsoft Dynamics NAV from<br />
FundWare, has 16-20 departments,<br />
with up to 30 cost centres in<br />
each. The budgeting process<br />
within the University Physician<br />
Group involved a system of<br />
distributed Excel spreadsheets.<br />
“Each department would copy<br />
their individual spreadsheets, fill<br />
them out, and upload them back<br />
to the server to a common data<br />
source,” explains Kathy Borlas,<br />
associate director information<br />
systems, WSU School of Medicine.<br />
The School of Medicine, on the<br />
other hand, had the Banner suite<br />
of applications in place, which<br />
naturally promoted a different set<br />
of budget processes. Along with the<br />
requirement to establish a common<br />
set of processes, WSU needed to<br />
implement a budgeting solution<br />
to provide the functions that Excel<br />
and Banner did not offer.<br />
The main reason for selecting<br />
PROPHIX was the short<br />
implementation time frame.<br />
“We frequently had aggressive<br />
implementation schedules, so it<br />
was a relief that PROPHIX offered<br />
a realistic yet timely project plan,”<br />
explains Borlas.<br />
In choosing PROPHIX, WSU<br />
had a number of goals it wanted<br />
to achieve, including the ability<br />
to produce consolidated monthly<br />
financial reports in a timely fashion<br />
with multiple enterprise resource<br />
planning systems and chart of<br />
accounts and the ability to process<br />
intercompany eliminations.<br />
“PROPHIX really helped us<br />
enforce a uniform process<br />
that we never had before”<br />
WSU was in the middle of its<br />
first budget year with PROPHIX,<br />
yet already recognised that its<br />
processes have become more<br />
objective and quantifiable, and<br />
intercompany eliminations were<br />
easily implemented and managed.<br />
Borlas explains: “PROPHIX really<br />
helped us enforce a uniform<br />
process that we never had before.<br />
It allowed a consolidation across<br />
our entities, which we had in bits<br />
and pieces before but never in a<br />
uniform, well-understood manner.”<br />

The Danish Agency for Governmental Management<br />
Process Optimisation<br />
The Danish Agency for<br />
Governmental Management<br />
(DAGM) manages loans, grants<br />
and securities. Over time the<br />
agency has introduced new<br />
programmes with individual terms<br />
and conditions requiring specific<br />
workflows and procedures. DAGM<br />
had many systems to support these<br />
programmes, often leading to the<br />
introduction of manual routines,<br />
requiring substantial resources.<br />
Challenges<br />
DAGM wanted to establish a platform<br />
suitable for the implementation<br />
of various solutions, enabling it to<br />
align workflows and procedures.<br />
Furthermore, it was important to<br />
focus on reducing the processing<br />
time and to make it easy to maintain<br />
and implement new programmes.<br />
The key elements that the solution<br />
had to address were efficiency<br />
(reduce cost by 30 per cent, shorten<br />
processing time and handle high<br />
volume of transactions), governance<br />
(compliance, standardisation of work<br />
processes and the flexibility to handle<br />
the diversity of programmes) and<br />
maintenance (passing control back to<br />
the business – allowing case handlers<br />
to maintain processes without<br />
intervention from IT developers).<br />
Solution<br />
The solution unifies previously<br />
dispersed applications into one<br />
environment. The case management<br />
and business process management<br />
integration provides a unique approach<br />
to the core governmental task of<br />
managing funds from programme<br />
design through application process<br />
and repayment to settlement/expiry.<br />
With the Resultmaker Process<br />
Platform, the core, standardisation<br />
and automation of working processes<br />
across the administrative life cycle<br />
has become a reality. It can handle<br />
more than 500,000 transactions<br />
per month. The platform is featurerich<br />
software that offers tools for the<br />
design, development and deployment<br />
of solutions for automating business<br />
critical processes, offering a fast-paced<br />
prototyping approach. It is based<br />
on a process matrix concept for the<br />
management of complex and extensive<br />
processes. Microsoft BizTalk is used<br />
for automatic processes, while <strong>Public</strong><br />
360˚ (based on SharePoint) is used<br />
as the underlying electronic records<br />
management systems and supports<br />
international standards for document<br />
management. Excel deployed through<br />
Office SharePoint Server is used for<br />
design, maintenance and execution of<br />
algorithms, enabling the user to work<br />
within a familiar environment.<br />
The solution contains an<br />
advanced BAM module, which<br />
serves as an overview of key<br />
performance indicators (KPIs) on<br />
all organisational levels, and also<br />
handles resource management. The<br />
module prioritises the most critical<br />
tasks according to the predefined<br />
KPI targets. A self-service module is<br />
included enabling the customer to<br />
build programme-specific solutions<br />
for citizens and companies with full<br />
public key infrastructure support.<br />
Benefits<br />
The digitalisation and automation<br />
increases efficiency by reducing errors.<br />
Other benefits include shortened<br />
processing time, better utilisation<br />
of resources, increased traceability,<br />
compliance, and consistent service<br />
and quality. It provides an integrated<br />
self-service platform with flexibility<br />
in resource planning and less<br />
vulnerability to resource constraints.<br />
Business opportunities<br />
This product is applicable to<br />
organisations managing funds<br />
from application through lending<br />
to repayment and completion in<br />
high volume and complexity, which<br />
are also facing one or more of the<br />
following challenges: efficiency,<br />
compliance, documentation and<br />
traceability, resources and fulfilment<br />

Urban Planning Authorities<br />
Planning for the future<br />
The Urban Planning Authorities<br />
in Greece are agencies hosted in<br />
local government offices all over<br />
the country and supervised by<br />
the Greek Ministry of Interior,<br />
Decentralisation and E-Government.<br />
Their responsibilities include<br />
management of all urban planning<br />
issues within their territory.<br />
They previously had complicated<br />
and heterogeneous processes,<br />
bureaucracy, the inability to offer<br />
accurate information and a lack of<br />
transparency in case management.<br />
An integrated information system<br />
for the automation and management<br />
of the Urban Planning Authorities’<br />
daily tasks was designed and<br />
implemented by SingularLogic.<br />
It was aimed at the simplification,<br />
homogenisation and automation<br />
of processes, transparency in daily<br />
operations, and the optimisation<br />
of service delivery to citizens and<br />
professionals.<br />
SingularLogic was selected due to<br />
its state-of-the-art technology solution,<br />
its capability to roll out successfully<br />
across the country and its business<br />
expertise. The information system<br />
covers three different areas, namely:<br />
E-CITY Planning I: an integrated<br />
document and workflow management<br />
system for managing the entire<br />
life cycle of the Urban Planning<br />
Authorities’ processes such as:<br />
protocol, building permits issuance,<br />
management of illegal building cases,<br />
business intelligence / management<br />
reporting.<br />
E-CITY Planning II: a central<br />
database hosting urban planning<br />
legislation data managed, coded and<br />
correlated for easy access and use.<br />
E-CITY Planning III: A<br />
geographic information system<br />
(GIS) with a spatial database<br />
including urban planning data (city<br />
blocks and zoning of land use).<br />
Portal: A single point of entry<br />
for offering sophisticated e-services<br />
to citizens and professionals (civil<br />
engineers and notaries).<br />
The system supports the daily<br />
tasks of more than 3,000 named users<br />
spread across 140 urban planning<br />
offices. Up to now it has managed 2.3<br />
million cases and issued about 87,000<br />
building permits.<br />
The Ssstem incorporates 210,000<br />
records of legislation acts related to<br />
urban planning; the GIS subsystem<br />
covers the entire Greek territory<br />
(150,000 city blocks, 450 urban area<br />
plans, and 65,000 map sheets).<br />
The software applications<br />
integrate all functionality provided<br />
by the Microsoft .NET Framework.<br />
The development tool used was<br />
Visual Studio .NET, while SQL<br />
Server data management software<br />
has been tightly integrated with the<br />
digital mapping system. The selected<br />
tools offered significant potential for<br />
the development of applications in a<br />
multi-tier Web-enabled architecture.<br />
The high quality and functionality<br />
offered by this software for<br />
deployment and production, as<br />
well as the integration of Microsoft<br />
technologies with other line-ofbusiness<br />
applications, ensured<br />
successful and timely delivery.<br />
For the state, results included timely<br />
delivery of information to citizens/<br />
professionals from one single point<br />
of entry; reduction of bureaucracy<br />
and foot fall in urban planning<br />
offices; elimination of operational<br />
costs, uniform processes and<br />
operational standards; transparency<br />
in the operation of Urban Planning<br />
Authorities, effective management tools<br />
to evaluate the efficiency of processes<br />
and generation of accurate, real-time<br />
statistic data to improve decision<br />
making and policy planning.<br />
For the citizens, results included<br />
transparent access to timely and<br />
accurate information through the<br />
Urban Planning Authorities portal,<br />
ability to conclude electronically<br />
all needed interactions with Urban<br />
Planning Authorities, easy search and<br />
retrieval of legislation information and<br />
access to urban planning information<br />
using geographical criteria.<br />

Danish Prison and Probation Service<br />
Skills for SCOM<br />
The availability of core competences<br />
is a key priority for the Danish<br />
Prison and Probation Service<br />
(DPPS). In addition to keeping<br />
the inmates in Danish prisons, the<br />
organisation supports their way out<br />
of crime. This has been done, for<br />
example, by setting up a separate<br />
computer network that provides<br />
inmates with an opportunity to be<br />
educated via the Internet. However,<br />
this has raised a number of issues<br />
regarding IT security.<br />
”We have been seriously<br />
concerned about how to manage<br />
surveillance of the new computer<br />
network alongside the existing one<br />
in DPPS. They cannot be mixed.<br />
Using the same technology to<br />
survey both networks is a huge<br />
advantage, because, in that case,<br />
we need only one set of skills to<br />
manage it,” says Henning Thomsen,<br />
chief of operations for DPPS.<br />
DPPS was dissatisfied with<br />
its existing surveillance system<br />
and therefore decided to switch<br />
to the Microsoft System Center<br />
Operations Manager (SCOM).<br />
The organisation already had a<br />
Microsoft platform and was about<br />
to implement the System Center<br />
Suite. However, none of the<br />
employees had sufficient experience<br />
with SCOM to themselves design a<br />
surveillance solution based on this<br />
technology. DPPS, therefore, turned<br />
to its long-term associate, solvo it, a<br />
specialist in the area.<br />
solvo it was asked to design a<br />
homogeneous solution to survey<br />
separate networks, integrating 600<br />
servers and 600 network units in 100<br />
different locations. solvo it was also<br />
asked to provide the necessary skills<br />
for SCOM to enable DPPS to manage<br />
surveillance itself from then on.<br />
For this purpose, solvo<br />
it analysed DPPS’s complex<br />
infrastructure, diverse workflows<br />
and likely development processes.<br />
Afterwards, the entire set-up was<br />
scaled and technology components<br />
and databases were selected. solvo<br />
it thus provided a tailor-made<br />
solution that perfectly suited the<br />
existing infrastructure and specific<br />
services of DPPS.<br />
In the communication between<br />
the two networks, the question of<br />
IT security was essential. The core of<br />
SCOM was configured and located<br />
in the old DPPS network. solvo it<br />
prohibited access from the old to<br />
the new network, while information<br />
concerning alarms and critical<br />
issues were designed to flow freely<br />
from the new network to the SCOM<br />
components. This made surveillance<br />
of the DPPS infrastructure both<br />
simple and secure.<br />
Finally, the entire SCOM solution<br />
was so flexibly designed that other<br />
networks can easily be integrated as<br />
DPPS expands in the future.<br />
Thomsen is very confident about<br />
the solution. Not only has solvo it<br />
succeeded in tailoring a well-sized,<br />
easily manageable and flexible<br />
solution and in transferring core<br />
competences regarding SCOM to<br />
DPPS, the solution also improves<br />
integration between the various<br />
products of the DPPS infrastructure<br />
and reduces surveillance costs.<br />
Thomsen also appreciates how<br />
easily knowledge of Microsoft<br />
technologies can be improved. “It<br />
is very easy to undertake further<br />
training with Microsoft. Solutions<br />
like our new SCOM one do not come<br />
out of the box. If you do not know<br />
how the technology works or how to<br />
configure it, it is not useful for you.<br />
Therefore, it is of great advantage that<br />
Microsoft technologies are always<br />
well supported with opportunities<br />
to pursue further education and<br />
develop new skills,” he concludes.<br />

Sweden’s municipal authorities<br />
The sky’s the limit<br />
Sweden has long championed<br />
transparent government and active<br />
involvement in the democratic<br />
process. Radical online video and<br />
meeting management software from<br />
Swedish innovator Stream Shed is<br />
now transforming the way Sweden’s<br />
municipal authorities engage public<br />
interest in local government.<br />
In today’s high-stress, instantgratification<br />
media environment,<br />
blocks of text on a static Web<br />
site cannot hope to secure and<br />
retain public attention. But Stream<br />
Shed’s cloud-based online video<br />
technology can – and does.<br />
Featuring end-to-end Azurebased<br />
Smooth Streaming video,<br />
integrated with Silverlight and<br />
Internet Information Services<br />
Media Services, this software-as-aservice<br />
concept is cost-efficient and<br />
simple to operate. State and local<br />
authorities can now communicate<br />
in a way that is both highly<br />
compelling and economically<br />
viable. Smooth streaming video,<br />
live or on demand, dramatically<br />
enhances an organisation’s ability<br />
to engage and connect with key<br />
target groups and a broader general<br />
public. This may be achieved via<br />
conventional Web sites or virally,<br />
through social media such as<br />
Facebook and Twitter.<br />
Online, on-demand and on-target<br />
The Silverlight-based player offers<br />
instant viewing. There is no need to<br />
download or install special software<br />
and no need to create special Web<br />
sites to broadcast meetings. Fully<br />
configurable and embeddable,<br />
Silverlight permits video channel<br />
insertion on any Web site. Just copy<br />
and paste the embed code supplied<br />
by the online video platform.<br />
Meetings can be displayed on<br />
a Web page, live or on-demand.<br />
Where appropriate, the process can<br />
be interactive, with participation via<br />
remote keypads. Constituents get<br />
to question – and receive answers<br />
from – their elected representatives.<br />
The agenda item, the name of the<br />
speaker, voting results – all can be<br />
added and synchronised during the<br />
meeting, in real time. And PowerPoint<br />
presentations can be displayed in<br />
parallel with the video broadcast.<br />
Viewers can link up to watch<br />
meetings anytime.<br />
Do-it-yourself archive<br />
The Stream Shed online video<br />
package enables any organisation<br />
to establish its own cloud-based<br />
video archive. Whatever the<br />
configuration, it is possible to create<br />
and display compelling Web TV on<br />
the organisation’s own channel, for<br />
current and new target groups. This<br />
can be anything from a simple video<br />
clip to a full webcast, complete with<br />
a PowerPoint presentation. More<br />
ambitious and complex Web casts,<br />
direct or on demand, pose no challenge<br />
either. It can be used for lectures,<br />
roundtable debates, interviews,<br />
in-house information, instructional<br />
films, training sessions and webinars.<br />
From just a few video clips to hundreds,<br />
Stream Shed’s solution offers effortless<br />
upload, management, classification and<br />

Twents Carmel College<br />
A whole new world<br />
Colleges are feeling the<br />
impact of The New World of<br />
Work for The New World of<br />
Learning. This concept, initially<br />
introduced by Bill Gates, has<br />
required a major turnaround in<br />
thinking in education and ICT.<br />
Dutch ICT specialists Switch<br />
Computerisation deal with this<br />
on a daily basis. An example of<br />
this is in north-east Twente in the<br />
Netherlands, where six colleges<br />
are working on a state-of-the-art<br />
network after merging. ICT must<br />
be a certainty and simply work all<br />
the time. This is the one condition<br />
for the New World of Work and<br />
Learning.<br />
The Netherlands is one of<br />
the leaders in western Europe in<br />
the area of ICT. Switch realises<br />
major projects in this area in<br />
collaboration with Microsoft in<br />
two areas: education and health<br />
care. “The New World of Work<br />
necessitates a continuous flawless<br />
performance of ICT facilities,<br />
whether someone is working at<br />
home, while travelling, or in the<br />
office. Our promise to customers is<br />
that we ensure that it ‘just works’,”<br />
says Ludger Dusseldorp, education<br />
sales manager at Switch.<br />
After six colleges merged to<br />
become Twents Carmel College<br />
in north-east Twente, a central<br />
network was developed in early<br />
2011, through a public cloud so<br />
that students and tutors always<br />
have access to their secure work<br />
environment (Office 365) for<br />
e-mail, data storage and all live<br />
tools, wherever they are. While at<br />
college, they can also log in to a<br />
private cloud with more educational<br />
software that needs physical servers.<br />
Thanks to virtualisation (Hyper-V),<br />
investment in the number of<br />
servers could be limited. For the<br />
private cloud, an existing fibre-optic<br />
connection between the six locations<br />
in Oldenzaal, Losser and Denekamp<br />
was expanded into a ring.<br />
Now users no longer have<br />
to install their own software to<br />
be able to work anywhere with<br />
secure programs. The required<br />
applications can be pushed from<br />
the cloud to their workplace/<br />
endpoint device (App-V). And<br />
thanks to Microsoft Lync, optimal<br />
online collaboration has been<br />
simplified. Dusseldorp explains:<br />
“Pretty much all new technology<br />
has been used to give The New<br />
World of Learning optimum<br />
facilitation. Users don’t know what<br />
goes on behind the scenes, and<br />
they don’t need to know. They<br />
can simply continue to work in<br />
their secure work environment,<br />
always and everywhere.” And this<br />
is consistently secure, because it is<br />
also centrally regulated (Forefront).<br />
It’s not just students and tutors<br />
who benefit. Managing the network<br />
is also much simpler, more user<br />
friendly, and efficient. “In practice,<br />
this means the college can do<br />
more with less,” says Dusseldorp.<br />
“System managers can focus more<br />
on tactical support of education<br />
without getting inundated with<br />
technical issues. This is how<br />
it should be. Students have to<br />
learn, tutors have to teach, and<br />
ICT should help them as much<br />
as possible without too much<br />
distraction.” ICT is increasingly an<br />
integral part of their policy and is<br />
changing how education is viewed.<br />
Dusseldorp concludes: “Students<br />
are increasingly studying outside of<br />
the school building. This requires a<br />
new approach from colleges, and<br />
we are helping them make that<br />
change. Together we are preparing<br />
education for the future.”<br />

Housing Benefit Recovery System<br />
Balancing recovery with<br />
social responsibility<br />
The Housing Benefit Recovery<br />
System (HBRS) is a management<br />
tool designed to support<br />
local governments and their<br />
departmental teams to effectively<br />
process the recovery of housing<br />
benefit overpayments. The HBRS<br />
software, developed by TCS<br />
Computer Services, helps promote<br />
best practice in accordance with<br />
the Department of Work and<br />
Pensions (DWP) key performance<br />
indicators (KPIs). Its use can<br />
reduce costs, rebalance workloads<br />
and tackle capacity issues, assisting<br />
local councils to support their<br />
recovery teams in improving their<br />
performance and saving time.<br />
HBRS software features enable<br />
staff to process high case volumes<br />
efficiently with monitoring to ensure<br />
compliance with DWP KPIs. There are<br />
daily up-to-date lists of outstanding<br />
invoices for team members, a<br />
‘sweeper facility’ to ensure tasks don’t<br />
get lost by falling ‘out of sight’, plus<br />
automatic allocation of work across<br />
the recovery team, including those<br />
working from home. The system<br />
highlights open benefit cases to help<br />
speed ‘claw back’ set up and other<br />
features include automatic generation<br />
of documentation for County Court<br />
judgments, and a checklist of actions<br />
and their outcomes, which can be<br />
recorded against each invoice. It<br />
has search facilities to identify and<br />
prioritise both cases requiring similar<br />
action without paper reports and to<br />
highlight those cases involving fraud<br />
and administrative penalties. The<br />
system also includes management<br />
tools to analyse the effectiveness of<br />
different recovery action processes.<br />
HBRS is designed for local<br />
councils charged with, and measured<br />
by, the amount of housing benefit<br />
overpayments they can recover.<br />

are introduced, there will be a large<br />
increase in recovery cases requiring<br />
prompt attention, often impeded<br />
by reduced staff levels and complex<br />
administrative functions.<br />
The HBRS system helps<br />
responsive recovery teams to manage<br />
peak workloads more efficiently<br />
and successfully, without the need<br />
to increase staff. This enables<br />
local authorities to swiftly recover<br />
overpayments and generate greater<br />
income, as well as reduce backlogs.<br />
HBRS is a desktop software<br />
application that can be virtualised<br />
using Microsoft App-V for ease of<br />
distribution, based on a SQL Server<br />
2008 database (also SQL Server<br />
2000 and 2005). It was developed<br />
using mainstream Microsoft .NET<br />
tools (a C#.NET Framework 2.0<br />
front end) and reporting utilises<br />
SQL Server Reporting Services or<br />
Crystal Enterprise and requires<br />
Word 2003 or later.<br />
HBRS helps local government<br />
recovery teams to manage their<br />
processes efficiently and deliver a<br />
measurable return on investment.<br />
The system can be installed and<br />
tested in six to eight days and<br />
training is minimal, due to the<br />
intuitive nature of the software.<br />
TCS offers a range of flexible<br />
commercial options including sitewide<br />
package licences with annual<br />
support, software package purchase<br />
or rental alternatives, plus bespoke<br />
enhancements to meet specific and<br />
varied departmental needs.<br />
HBRS can be configured to take<br />
data from any housing benefits<br />
system and has been successfully<br />
implemented by a number of local<br />
authorities and councils.<br />

The London Borough of Hackney<br />
The people’s choice<br />
The London Borough of Hackney<br />
is one of the most historic London<br />
boroughs and is a fundamental<br />
element to the success of the<br />
2012 Olympic Games: the media<br />
and broadcast centre and almost<br />
one-third of the 2012 games<br />
area are all based in Hackney.<br />
Hackney Council is working<br />
to provide significant lasting<br />
benefits including: better public<br />
transport; jobs for local people;<br />
work for local businesses; new<br />
and improved sports facilities;<br />
a better environment; more<br />
participation in sport, culture<br />
and the arts; and promotion of<br />
the borough as a destination for<br />
work, living and investment.<br />
The borough is a truly<br />
cosmopolitan region. It has a<br />
population of approximately<br />
216,000 of whom over 20 per cent<br />
are claiming council benefits of some<br />
kind and with an unemployment<br />
rate of nine per cent. In addition it<br />
has an annual income of circa £400<br />
million. To support the normal<br />
day-to-day citizen needs and the<br />
additional requirements of the<br />
forthcoming Olympics, Hackney<br />
required an efficient cost-effective<br />
citizen service solution.<br />
H a c k n e y h a d a l r e a d y<br />
implemented Microsoft Dynamics<br />
CRM as the core platform for its<br />
citizen service strategy, but in order<br />
to deliver the volume and quality of<br />
services expected a comprehensive<br />
call scripting solution that could<br />
be deployed quickly and easily,<br />
both internally and on the Web,<br />
was required. TKDialogs from<br />
Team Knowledge was chosen<br />
following a comprehensive tender<br />
process, including all of the<br />
possible alternatives. It was selected<br />
primarily for its ease and speed of<br />
development, which is typically six<br />
to seven times faster than coding.<br />
Other factors were the simplicity of<br />
the software deployment, reduced<br />
training requirements, ease of use<br />
and Team Knowledge’s experience<br />
with Microsoft and the public <strong>sector</strong>.<br />
TKDialogs provides call scripting<br />
and process automation through a<br />
single user interface across all of the<br />
council’s service delivery channels. It<br />
provides a common interface for its<br />
citizen-facing staff and public across<br />
a wide range of services, enabling<br />
enquiries to be resolved at the first<br />
point of contact. In the new contact<br />
centre, agents can handle even the<br />
most complex enquiries and service<br />
requests through TKDialogs scripts.<br />
Similarly, on the Web site, citizens<br />
are led through simple screens, which<br />
provide direct access to council<br />
services and interact seamlessly with<br />
Dynamics CRM to create service<br />
requests and appointments. The key<br />
business areas of waste, registrars and<br />
licensing have already been deployed<br />
with all other services soon to follow.<br />
“We have found TKDialogs to<br />
be much more than a call scripting<br />
tool,” says Alex Wilson, technical<br />
programme manager, London<br />
Borough of Hackney. “It has<br />
enabled us to very rapidly develop<br />
comprehensive citizen service<br />
applications based on Dynamics<br />
CRM. TKDialogs provides a<br />
common interface for our citizenfacing<br />
staff and public across a<br />
wide range of services, enabling<br />
enquiries to be handled at the first<br />
point of contact. The TKDialogs<br />
approach is an integral part of our<br />
citizen strategy and has enabled us<br />
to deliver our customer relationship<br />
management implementation<br />
project on time and within budget.”<br />
TKDialogs is a world leader in call<br />
scripting and process automation<br />
for Microsoft Dynamics CRM and<br />
SharePoint portal solutions. In<br />
addition it has the ability to access<br />
and utilise data from other systems<br />
to provide efficient and cost-effective<br />
citizen services.<br />
The London Borough<br />
of Hackney<br />
Solution: Browser-based call<br />
scripting and process automation<br />
Benefits: Majority of issues solved,<br />
at first point of contact, reduced<br />

molis vt Laboratory Management System<br />
A solution pioneer<br />
molis vt from vision4health is<br />
a newly developed laboratory<br />
software tool for diagnostic<br />
facilities in the health care system.<br />
As the pioneer of a new generation<br />
of management solutions, molis vt<br />
is based on modern technologies to<br />
meet the challenges of the rapidly<br />
changing laboratory market.<br />
Visionary Technology (vt) and a<br />
clear vision for a networked health<br />
care system form the basis of all<br />
developments. Thus, as an efficient<br />
diagnostic wide area network<br />
(DWAN) extending across locations,<br />
vision4health solutions connect<br />
various systems and facilitate the<br />
wireless integration of central and<br />
satellite laboratories, hospitals,<br />
special institutes, doctors in private<br />
practices and patients into general<br />
workflows. These workflows can be<br />
quickly defined and easily adapted<br />
to personal or workplace-specific<br />
conditions. With its intuitive infocard<br />
user interface, molis vt makes<br />
traditional laboratory software<br />
packages look obsolete, reduces the<br />
possibility of errors and speeds up<br />
work routines. Even the operation<br />
of different laboratories from a<br />
uniform system interface is no<br />
longer a challenge due to intelligent<br />
communications and control<br />
instruments. An adaptable structure<br />
for orders and patient cases, which<br />
fulfils the most demanding medical<br />
processes, builds the core of the<br />
laboratory software, as does flexible<br />
validation and a clear solution for<br />
the complexity of findings.<br />
As a solution that spans<br />
disciplines and fields, molis vt aims<br />
to meet the needs of laboratory and<br />
transfusion medicine, microbiology,<br />
transplantation medicine and<br />
pathology, which have their own<br />
specific medical and organisational<br />
requirements. Additional supporting<br />
functions include materials<br />
management, warehousing and<br />
resource planning; optimised<br />
scheduling; continuous certificationready<br />
quality management;<br />
dynamic data evaluation with<br />
business intelligence; and customer<br />
relationship management.<br />
Due to increasing centralisation<br />
and networking, the requirements<br />
in the laboratory market are also<br />
changing. On the one hand,<br />
corporate groups with hundreds of<br />
employees at distributed locations<br />
are emerging, requiring highly<br />
accessible IT solutions and the<br />
possibility of depicting extremely<br />
individualised workflows. On the<br />
other hand, specialised laboratories<br />
integrated into the hospital workflow<br />
have to offer their services more<br />
flexibly and be able to individually<br />
cater to customer needs.<br />
Challenges in the laboratory<br />
range from order acceptance<br />
and sample management to the<br />
logistics of lab results. The molis vt<br />
channel strategic online solution<br />
supplements molis vt in both ends<br />
of the process with order entry<br />
procedures and result reports. At<br />
the same time, it can be integrated<br />
into hospital and physician<br />
information systems or used as an<br />
independent referral and patient<br />
portal. With automatic bundling of<br />
test catalogues into an order form,<br />
molis vt channel optimises processes<br />
for senders like hospitals and, with<br />
its proactive control of flow of<br />
materials and external laboratory<br />
requests, creates new room to<br />
manoeuvre for laboratory operators.<br />
Benefits include one click<br />
technology that lowers installation and<br />
maintenance times, even when new<br />
locations are put into operation. The<br />
Windows Presentation Foundation<br />
and Silverlight-based infocard user<br />
interface can be used both on a<br />
client and in a browser. However the<br />
focus is on the process knowledge<br />
accumulated in the laboratory market<br />
over decades. If, for instance, an<br />
expired blood bank sample is scanned<br />
in, molis vt recommends the practical<br />
work step to dispose of the sample.<br />
In this way, optimised processes save<br />
time and money, avoid errors and<br />
provide better quality.<br />

Macedonian institutions<br />
A national system for<br />
interoperability<br />
Not so long ago Macedonian<br />
institutions were struggling<br />
with slow data entry and<br />
time-consuming information<br />
exchange practices using paper<br />
documentation transferred<br />
via couriers. Using separate<br />
databases in different government<br />
institutions, Macedonian citizens<br />
were forced to visit more than five<br />
institutions for paperwork, just to<br />
finish one administrative process.<br />
Following the example of the<br />
EU member countries, in 2009 the<br />
Macedonian Ministry of Information<br />
Society and Administration decided<br />
to establish a National Information<br />
System for Interoperability<br />
between information systems<br />
which exist within the Government<br />
institutions using a wide range of<br />
different technologies. Taking up<br />
the challenge, with its extensive<br />
background of interoperability<br />
t e c h n o l o g y i n t e g r a t i o n<br />
projects based on Microsoft<br />
BizTalk Server, Vista Group<br />
developed and implemented the<br />
Macedonian Information System<br />
for Interoperability in a period<br />
of just six months, making life<br />
easier for both the citizens and<br />
the institutions of the Republic of<br />
Macedonia.<br />
Microsoft BizTalk Server 2009,<br />
SQL Server 2008 and Windows<br />
Server 2008 form the basis of<br />
the solution The technology was<br />
chosen because the government<br />
had had positive experiences with<br />
Microsoft in the past and mapped<br />
well with the project’s objectives.<br />
The Interoperability System<br />
solution developed by Vista Group<br />
is based on a service-oriented<br />
architecture (SOA) infrastructure<br />
and designed to support the secure<br />
integration of processes and data<br />
within government agencies and<br />
related commercial enterprises<br />
to secure national information<br />
exchange.<br />
The first five institutions<br />
that took part in the National<br />
Interoperability System are the<br />
most important data providers in<br />
the country: Ministry of Internal<br />
Affairs, The Central Registry<br />
of R.Macedonia, Macedonian<br />
Customs, <strong>Public</strong> Revenue and<br />
Cadastre of R.Macedonia.<br />
According to Macedonian law,<br />
the data exchange between every<br />
national government institution<br />
will have to be done via this<br />
National Interoperability System,<br />
instead of bilateral communication<br />
channels that were used before.<br />
Communication and exchange of<br />
classified data was not possible<br />
in digital form, until the National<br />
Interoperability System was<br />
introduced by Vista Group.<br />
The Interoperability System<br />
Solution can deliver even greater<br />
business value by offering a<br />
coordinated approach that<br />
leverages deep business insight and<br />
governmental experience, as well as<br />
the company’s consulting expertise.<br />
Vista Group’s business software is<br />
designed to deliver real outcomes,<br />
with government-specific data and<br />
information models that can help<br />
speed time to value and reduce<br />
risk. This solution, built on the<br />
Microsoft .NET Framework, BizTalk<br />
Server technology and a SOA-based<br />
infrastructure can provide solutions<br />
that assist government agencies to<br />
make information-driven decisions<br />
as well as build, manage and<br />
leverage the data contained in the<br />
IT infrastructure.<br />

Oporto School of Engineering<br />
E-tendering benefits<br />
ISEP, Oporto School of<br />
Engineering, is a Portuguese<br />
public university founded in<br />
1852. Boasting a wide range of<br />
skill profiles and a pronounced<br />
commitment to the sustainable<br />
development of Portugal, ISEP has<br />
approximately 6,500 students,<br />
435 teachers and 135 support<br />
staff. It offers 22 undergraduate<br />
and Masters degrees.<br />
In order to fulfil the Portuguese<br />
rules of public contracting law,<br />
improve transparency and cost<br />
effectiveness for all contracting<br />
processes and expedite auditing<br />
on their procurement procedures,<br />
ISEP required the services of an<br />
e-tendering platform.<br />
The solution chosen was<br />
vortalGOV, which was created by<br />
Vortal in 2003. Built on a serviceoriented<br />
architecture for high<br />
productivity, performance and<br />
scalability vortalGOV is supported by<br />
a cloud-based e-tendering suite and<br />
an e-commerce suite offering specific<br />
services for suppliers, like market<br />
intelligence tools, sales support, and<br />
competitive testing. All this is based<br />
on an interoperable e-marketplace<br />
with mobility solutions.<br />
The Vortal team maintains a core<br />
system architecture using the latest<br />
technology to provide electronic<br />
services such as Microsoft SQL<br />
Server and BizTalk. Vortal’s data<br />
models and message formats are<br />
Pan-European <strong>Public</strong> Procurement<br />
Online compliant, respecting those<br />
standards defined by the European<br />
Committee for Standardization.<br />
Vortal was selected for its<br />
authentication, authorisation,<br />
encryption, identification with<br />
digital certificates, traceability and<br />
non-repudiation capacity, enabling<br />
the highest level of information<br />
confidentiality and security.<br />
Now ISEP can input tender<br />
d o c u m e n t s , c l a r i f i c a t i o n s ,<br />
messages and notifications to<br />
market operators, making bids<br />
electronically using Web-based<br />
technologies alone. The platform<br />
also supports dynamic negotiation<br />
with suppliers. Market operators<br />
simply need the Internet to receive<br />
notifications of tenders, according<br />
to business type. Then, they can<br />
download the procedures, ask for<br />
clarification and send proposals.<br />
Instead of mountains of paper, ISEP<br />
has all the proposals in electronic<br />
format. The platform is supported<br />
by an automatic, powerful, proposal<br />
analysis engine with different<br />
evaluation criteria and deviation<br />
analysis features to facilitate the<br />
process.<br />
The platform improves the<br />
dematerialisation, reorganisation and<br />
simplification of public procurement,<br />
enabling savings and profitability of<br />
human and financial resources, as<br />
well as improving the acceleration<br />
of compliance objectives. By using<br />
a unique network of suppliers<br />
competition is encouraged. The<br />
supply network was enlarged, with<br />
better results in terms of quality and<br />
savings in procurement processes.<br />
This diversification of suppliers<br />
also represented progress in the<br />
development of public institutions<br />
being more open, transparent, and<br />
interoperable, throughout their<br />
contraction process.<br />
Since implementation of<br />
vortalGOV, ISEP has launched 213<br />
procedures, which have generated<br />
1,192 proposals. The adoption of<br />
vortalGOV allowed ISEP to save<br />
around 18 per cent in these 213<br />
procedures, which represents<br />
€539,433.65 in awarded costs.<br />
Vortal is a government-tobusiness-to-business<br />
e-marketplace<br />
operator, serving more than 20,000<br />
companies on three continents and<br />
2,000 contracting authorities. Its<br />
mission is to help organisations<br />
buy better and sell more to achieve<br />
superior performance in a highly<br />
collaborative cloud-based platform.<br />
Founded in 2000, Vortal has offices<br />
in Portugal, Spain and UK, with a<br />
team of 120 people.<br />

ActiveDocs develops document automation and<br />
template management software solutions that<br />
reduce the risk, time and expense of creating<br />
documents. <strong>Public</strong> <strong>sector</strong> agencies in Finland and<br />
the Netherlands use the ActiveDocs Opus solution to<br />
create documents such as pension statements, letters,<br />
policies, eligibility rules and permits in less time than<br />
they could manually or with competing document<br />
preparation solutions.<br />
ActiveDocs is a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner,<br />
and ActiveDocs Opus is built on the Microsoft<br />
.NET Framework. <strong>Public</strong> agencies can easily<br />
integrate Opus document automation functions<br />
into Microsoft SharePoint portals, and save and<br />
manage documents in SharePoint repositories.<br />
Integration with SharePoint and other incumbent<br />
systems gives users access to updated content<br />
without time-intensive searches, cutting and pasting,<br />
or manual transcription. ActiveDocs workflows<br />
help eliminate variation between documents by<br />
automatically providing authors with updated<br />
information, reducing the risk of complaints or legal<br />
action. Central template storage and management<br />
ensures that templates remain current, accurate, and<br />
in compliance with regulations by enabling ‘one<br />
to many’ content changes (i.e. make one change to<br />
critical content like a legal clause and dynamically<br />
update that content in any linked templates.)<br />

nominated for ‘Government partner of the year’. We<br />
are specialists in customer relationship management<br />
(CRM), .NET and content management system<br />
implementations in Germany and Switzerland.<br />
In order to initially implement ServiceCenter<br />
(D115) and EU Service Directive topics, Axcentro<br />
and Microsoft developed a solution closely matched<br />
within the partnership. This implementation is based<br />
on the knowledge gained with the Fraunhofer FOKUS<br />
Institute and Microsoft from the implementation of a<br />
demonstrator (prototype).<br />
Microsoft Citizen Service Platform approaches<br />
were also considered in the solution. This solution,<br />
Axcentro <strong>Public</strong> Service Solution, has been officially<br />
certified by Microsoft. Axcentro has introduced<br />
this solution in ministries, data centres and cities.<br />
The further development is constantly in close<br />
coordination with around 250 public customers.<br />
During the Microsoft Local And Regional<br />
Government Forum in 2009, Axcentro was honoured<br />
for the introduction of the solution in the Federal<br />

CEOS Technologies was established in 1998 by Ann<br />
Kleynhans to provide IT solutions to the corporate<br />
market. The company grew from strength to strength<br />
by expanding its product range to incorporate leading<br />
brand names.<br />
As any user will know, the purchase of equipment<br />
like a computer system is only the first of many steps<br />
on the path to mastering IT. Whether it is a desktop<br />
PC, notebook or server, a long road stretches ahead<br />
before eventual replacement.<br />
Beginning with installation, attachment of<br />
peripherals and network integration, there will<br />
come a time for hardware and software upgrades,<br />
replacement of consumables, system troubleshooting,<br />
maintenance, and probably also a need for repair.<br />
Network expansion can also be expected. CEOS<br />
Technologies aims to provide comprehensive<br />
information technology services, from software<br />
development through to electronic engineering. We<br />
provide you with seamless support and cost-effective<br />
solutions every step of the way.<br />
Our core focus is to provide the most appropriate<br />
solutions through world-class products. We keep a<br />
balance between price and performance, by providing<br />
workstations as well as a complete network rollout<br />
with all its components. We keep up to date with the<br />
latest technologies, and have the ability to supply any<br />
mainstream hardware and software.<br />

Induct AS has developed an innovation management<br />
solution that allows organisations to gradually transition<br />
to a more open innovation environment. This means<br />
that organisations can achieve end-to-end innovation<br />
by getting every employee involved in submitting<br />
new ideas and challenges. In addition, to the extent<br />
desired, companies can use Induct’s virtual innovation<br />
communities to quickly and easily reach out to external<br />
stakeholders and capture their input as well.<br />
Induct was developed from conception to be a<br />
true 100 per cent Web-based software-as-a-service<br />
platform, meaning that there is no hardware to buy,<br />
and no software to install, backup, or maintain.<br />
Induct’s virtual innovation communities can be<br />
accessed and used from anywhere in the world<br />
through a standard Web browser. Enterprises<br />
can choose to limit the access to Induct based on<br />
username and password pairs or IP addresses.<br />
Induct supports single-sign-on, so organisations<br />
can maintain their own user database, i.e. through<br />
industry standard models such as Active Directory.<br />
With a click of the mouse, Induct’s entire idea<br />
and/or challenges portfolio, and all associated<br />
system information, can be exported to Microsoft<br />
Excel. In addition, each individual idea or challenge<br />
can be exported to Microsoft Word, including all<br />
collaborative innovation documents.<br />

From 1997, InduSoft has been creating SCADA/HMI<br />
software with one important goal in mind – the freedom<br />
to develop an application once, and then deploy it<br />
to any Microsoft device. Now, over a decade later,<br />
InduSoft has come further than ever with the release<br />
of InduSoft Web Studio v7.0. This powerful SCADA/<br />
HMI development environment continues to evolve<br />
the already comprehensive offering with rich graphical<br />
capabilities, alarms (both online and historical), trends<br />
(both online and historical), scheduler, reports, scripting<br />
(both InduSoft scripting and Visual Basic Scripting),<br />
communication drivers, OPC (DA, HDA, UA, and Xi),<br />
Web capability (including remote operations via the<br />
Web), database interface using SQL commands, and<br />
remote management capability.<br />
With these new advancements, it should come as<br />
no surprise that InduSoft Web Studio has added three<br />
new awards for 2010 to an already impressive track<br />
record. InduSoft accepted two Frost and Sullivan<br />
awards for World HMI/SCADA Software Product<br />
Differentiation Excellence and Global Web-Based<br />
Human Interface Customer Value Enhancement and<br />
Control Engineering Engineer’s Choice award.<br />
InduSoft is continuously innovating and working<br />
towards creating better HMI/SCADA software for<br />
users. With a strong product line and the enthusiasm<br />
of users, InduSoft will continue to release revolutionary<br />
new tools for supervision of automated processes.<br />

We help our customers to optimise their business<br />
control in two ways:<br />
1. Financial control<br />
2. Operational control.<br />
To achieve these results we utilise our software<br />
platform, InfoWeaver QMO, which is a flexible<br />
business optimisation platform that utilises Microsoft<br />
components.<br />
With this as a base, we help our customers to<br />
develop their business control by creating a stronger<br />
common ‘red thread’ through their business, between<br />
financial control and the different operational parts<br />
of the organisation. A stronger ‘red thread’ improves<br />
common business understanding, stimulates ideas<br />
and thereby dramatically increases internal efficiency.<br />
We have customers in a broad range of businesses,<br />
for example banking and finance, real estate, industry,<br />
distribution, FMCG, health care and government. Our<br />
customers are large businesses with high complexity<br />
in terms of legal units and products, markets.<br />

of violent crimes and the reduction in the numbers<br />
of deaths caused by accidental fire are critical in<br />
assessing the performance of the police and fire<br />
services respectively.<br />
We determine the most appropriate ways to gather,<br />

drive improvements in business performance. Our<br />
services aimed at this goal include:<br />

The IT requirements in each company vary<br />
greatly: A must-have application for one user can<br />
be insignificant for another one who requires a<br />
completely different application. Over the years, this<br />
fact often created a real software licence jungle in<br />
many companies.<br />
For every company that relies heavily on IT, wellselected<br />
licence management is a significant matter<br />
for all decision makers.<br />
Are you asking yourself the following questions:<br />
• Which is the optimum licensing for my company?<br />
• How can I ensure transparency over all licences?<br />
• Which licences are really in use?<br />
• How can I reduce administration and cost?<br />
As a partner, independent from manufacturers, we<br />
can advise you on the optimal products to cover<br />
your individual requirements. The knowledge of our<br />
certified specialists will bring transparency to your<br />
licence management. We shall be pleased to give<br />

Hospital Customer Relationship Management<br />
(HCRM) is a new management software for<br />
hospitals and health clinics. The product is the first<br />
application with multiple schedulers integrated inside<br />
Microsoft Dynamics CRM that is able to completely<br />
manage patients and therapy courses, streamlining<br />
and improving efficiency of the whole patient<br />
management system, the therapy courses and the<br />
clinic.<br />
In addition to the main features of a health industry<br />
software, HCRM has six strengths that make it<br />
unique:<br />
• The mathematical algorithm<br />
• The medical record that shows medical history,<br />
examinations and treatments<br />
• Complete management of outpatient visits and the<br />
printing of prescriptions<br />
• Integration with Microsoft Dynamics CRM<br />
• The chance to use a touch-screen monitor, meaning<br />
staff do not have to use paper during a patient’s<br />
visits<br />
• The chance to rent software instead of buying it<br />
thanks to the software-as-a-service option.<br />
Furthermore the digital signage system connected<br />
to the back-end, arranges patients’ calls, and allows<br />
medical staff to close a visit directly: a procedure that<br />
saves time and improve efficiency of all staff jobs.<br />

ShareOne B.V is a young, professional organisation,<br />
founded mid 2007, which has a focus on the delivery<br />
of portal solutions and information management<br />
solutions based on the Microsoft Office SharePoint<br />
Server platform. Based on its knowledge in the<br />
area of enterprise content management (ECM) and<br />
the knowledge of the different market segments,<br />
ShareOne has invested in re-usable (software)<br />
solutions based on SharePoint; they are called the<br />
ShareOne Business Solution.<br />
From our point of view, knowledge of the<br />
area of information management is a necessary<br />
component for a successful implementation. Other<br />
prerequisites are knowledge of the customer (their<br />
jargon, processes and context) and knowledge of<br />
the platform being used (SharePoint). Openness<br />
and involvement of our organisation and continuing<br />
commitment from the management complete this and<br />
guarantee successful projects.<br />
ShareOne has confirmed that it can develop, deliver<br />
and maintain solutions in the areas of e-business,<br />
modern information management (enterprise<br />
information management) and end-user tailored<br />
portal solutions. Using SharePoint lays the foundation<br />
for an excellent company-wide ECM/document<br />
management solution.<br />
ShareOne has been developing postal registration<br />
and archiving systems since 1988. This focus was<br />
extended into building document, workflow and<br />

Team Knowledge Ltd specialises in helping public<br />
bodies automate and deliver their citizen services.<br />
Our aim is to resolve citizen requests at the first point<br />
of contact, and if this is not possible, ensure that all<br />
the required data is captured correctly first time, thus<br />
making business processes as cost and time efficient<br />
as possible.<br />
The most important element of citizen service is the<br />
citizen interaction; service staff must deal with the<br />
emotions of the citizen and not be concerned about<br />
the requirements of a complex computer system. In<br />
order to achieve this we deliver easy to use solutions<br />
that require minimum training and can be deployed<br />
both on the Web and internally.<br />
Our solution, TKDialogs, includes an easy to use<br />
graphical development tool for non-coders; this tool<br />
automatically generates browser-based user screens<br />
and can also create documents and send e-mails.<br />
TKDialogs integrates seamlessly with Microsoft<br />
Dynamics CRM, SharePoint and other applications<br />
and has been deployed across the world to provide<br />
high quality cost-effective citizen services.<br />
