Intranet and public website search and retrieval for DRS
"It's a very rapid, reliable and accurate tool, which adds a great deal to our Intranet . . . We needed to find a system that had the functional capability we were looking for, without occupying lots of space - the fact that Content Finder does not need a database was certainly a major plus point during the decision making process." Mike Rawlinson, CIO (Chief Information Officer), DRS
DRS Data and Research Services is a data capture specialist, and a leader in the development and deployment of mark recognition systems since 1969. The company works with a wide range of examination and assessment authorities to design, print and manage the distribution and fulfillment of specialised examination forms including registration forms, answer sheets, continuous assessment forms, examiners' mark sheets, examination attendance forms and secure certificates.
It also supplies equipment and software to process completed forms automatically using optical mark recognition (OMR), intelligent character recognition (ICR) and Imaging technology as well as providing key from image services
During the development of their Intranet in 2006, DRS identified a requirement for a search engine to work both across the intranet and their external website. Interestingly, DRS do not host their website themselves, so their specification required that the search system could integrate with a site held externally from the DRS IT infrastructure.
In particular, DRS were very keen to have full control of where the product searched, recognising the security restrictions that are in place for sensitive information. They selected Content Finder from Birmingham-based software developer, Folding Space, to answer these requirements . . .
