FirstEnergy is a diversified energy company headquartered in Akron, Ohio. Its seven electric utility operating companies comprise the nation's fifth largest investor-owned electric system, based on 4.5 million customers in Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, while its generation subsidiaries control nearly 14,000 megawatts of capacity.
OmniRIM and FileNet jointly provided an integrated records management architecture that centralizes responsibility and provides common records management policies and processes, such as retention scheduling, across FirstEnergy's geographically distributed records facilities. This scalable, seamlessly integrated electronic and physical records management system provides life cycle management and records center capabilities to track the movement of documents and boxes.
Larry W. Hawkins, Director of Records & Information Compliance at FirstEnergy says "FirstEnergy chose this solution because it supported a seamless transition from our former physical records management system and provides enhanced scalability demanded by our business."
"We are pleased to team with OmniRIM to provide FirstEnergy with leading-edge records management solutions," said Martyn Christian, vice president, content management marketing for FileNet. "Our FileNet P8 platform offers organizations a single platform that can be used to address immediate and future compliance issues within the enterprise."
