Information enlisted in war on terror
Kim Thomas
Government scientists are to use OpenText's LiveLink enterprise content management system as part of a programme of sweeping changes that will help them manage information more effectively in the fight against terrorism.
The Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (DSTL) is an agency of the Ministry of Defence (MoD). It employs 3,500 scientists to provide impartial scientific and technical advice that will keep the MoD abreast of advances in modern warfare techniques.
DSTL's decision to purchase an enterprise content management system is part of the agency's wider iLab programme to make itself a more integrated and efficient organisation. The iLab programme includes reducing the number of DSTL sites from nine to three.
iLab's high-level aim was to make the organisation more customer-focused, said Simon Lill, public sector sales director at OpenText.
