IBM assists German agency

IBM has signed a services agreement with Germany's Federal Employment Agency, Bundesagentur fur Arbeit (BA), to help the agency file, distribute, process and manage documents electronically, says PR Newswire.

Under terms of the agreement, IBM Global Business Services will implement IBM's FileNetP8 enterprise content management (CM) platform in which a customised user interface will be developed for the BA.

The project, stated to take up two years, is a part of the e-government strategy pursued by the BA with a view to further improving its performance.

Ingeniux has unveiled Cartella, the first unified social CM platform for managing the entire life cycle of social content across any Web site, states KM World.

The offering is said to integrate social networking tools, Web analytics and CM into a single solution for managing internal collaboration and external communities.

The solution includes modules for managing documents, wikis, blogs, rich media and social networking.

Rise Vision, a provider of a Web-based CM system for the control of digital signage networks, has partnered with global value-added integrator Canvys, reports Digital Signage Today.
