Our expertise covers information and records management theory
and practice. It covers EDM, EDRM, ECM and WCM technologies. It
covers technology which is established and working well, enhancements
to existing technologies and newly developing technologies which
will have a significant impact when they become available. Our
expertise also includes feedback from users who have implemented
changes both successfully and unsuccessfully. We, therefore, understand
the reasons for failure as well as success, and can provide the
advice and experience which will ensure a cost-effective transition
from old to new business processes.
Cimtech is a totally impartial body with no inherent bias in terms
of a specialised or limited area of expertise. We assess the potential
benefits of a change in procedures as carefully as we assess those
from an investment in technology. We make positive recommendations
based on our assessments and we ensure that our clients have a firm
understanding of the arguments for and against the alternatives
which we put forward.
We have
access to over one hundred University IT specialists who can support
our own high level of competence for specialised assignments.
We have installed numerous imaging, workflow and document management
systems using a wide variety of computing platforms, databases,
operating systems and network protocols.
Cimtech’s consultancy services range from strategy studies
through to analysis and design services and on to full implementation
and project management services as listed below. We also carry
out custom research for large user organisations and suppliers

an expert witness. Click here to see a list of some of our
