Toronto, ON (PRWEB) October 29, 2013

Crawford Technologies is proud to debut and demonstrate their newly-released version of Riptide™ at IBM Information On Demand in Las Vegas, Nevada from November 3-7, 2013. Riptide has been perfected to fully complement IBM’s Content Navigator and support IBM ECM repositories such as IBM Content Manager OnDemand, IBM Content Manager and IBM FileNet P8. Riptide is now available to IBM customers and partners through IBM Passport Advantage worldwide.

“CrawfordTech is proud to work closely with IBM to provide IBM customers with an output solution that spans across all IBM ECM repositories,” said Stuart Warner, Vice President of Sales, Crawford Technologies. "This solution adds significant value to IBM ECM systems and allows customers to streamline many laborious and time-consuming tasks."

   •  Automates customer and client specific deliverables by building output based on business process rules

   •  Improves efficiency by utilizing the most efficient output device for content delivery
   •  Easily applies seals, watermarks or images that identify and enhance output packets
   •  Eliminates manual handling of output and free up users to perform additional tasks
   •  Summarizes output with TOC and manifests to increases users ability to identify meaningful information

   •  Supports collaboration efforts by delivering annotated documents
   •  Optionally stores newly created correspondence in repository for customer service and regulatory requirements

“Customers are telling us that the Riptide solution makes all the difference, changing ‘days and hours’ of work into ‘minutes and seconds,’” said Jay Baumgarten, Director of ECM Solutions at Crawford Technologies. “Organizations in government, financial services, life sciences, insurance and healthcare use Riptide to build and output case packets to department and agencies involved in civil and criminal cases based on documents stored in IBM ECM repositories. They save time, reduce errors and eliminate the need for couriers and excess staffing.”

Jay Baumgarten, Director of ECM Solutions, Crawford Technologies will be speaking at Information On Demand. His talk, “EIC-3248A: Building a Solid Output Strategy with IBM Content Navigator” will take place Wednesday, November 6 (4:30 p.m. – 5:45 p.m.) in the Lagoon F room at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.

Baumgarten will discuss how using multiple enterprise content management repositories to achieve document management needs is becoming the norm. IBM Content Manager OnDemand allows you to archive your print assets while engaging the powerful business process engine of IBM FileNet P8 to use the knowledge gained from your company's content. The emergence of IBM Content Navigator allows organizations to seamlessly integrate Content Manager OnDemand, FileNet P8, and IBM Content Manager. This single interface for all repositories allows you to take advantage of content across the enterprise. Content Navigator requires the development of a strong document output strategy while combining the value of various IBM repositories.

Crawford Technologies will be on hand to demonstrate and discuss Riptide and their other award-winning solutions in the EXPO at IBM Information on Demand 2013 in Las Vegas from Nov. 3-7, 2013 at Mandalay Bay.
