PRODUCT

With over 1.5M documents generated yearly, University of Arkansas for

Medical Sciences has adopted EMC ApplicationXtender to increase

productivity, reduce costs, and make document sharing faster and easier.

UAMS had been using office space to store

important documents and records. This

was costly and unproductive. With rapid

growth and multiple locations, they

decided to reduce paper and find a more

automated way to store their documents

to improve access, sharing, and control.

With EMC ApplicationXtender, UAMS was

able to reduce paper storage and move to

new facilities. HR’s early success with the

new system led to 300 other departments

asking for it. The system provides faster,

broader access to information, enabling

easier content access, retrieval, and

sharing.
