Total Records Information Management (TRIM)

TRIM is a single off-the-shelf software application which the University of Tasmania has selected to manage its electronic and paper corporate records. The product provides:
• Workflow
• Image management
• Document management
• Web Publishing
• Email Management and;
• Records Management

All Microsoft Office applications interface with TRIM. This ensures that all corporate documents can be saved with as little disruption as possible to normal work processes.

The TRIM Top Drawer facility provides you with a valuable tool for managing draft documents before saving them into TRIM. An interface has been designed to capture both incoming and outgoing Lotus Notes e-mails into TRIM. All other corporate information will be scanned, registered and forwarded via TRIM where possible and appropriate.

Currently TRIM is being used by the Vice-Chancellor's Office, Deputy Vice-Chancellor's Office, Pro Vice-Chancellor's Offices, Executive Director Finance & Administration Office, Academic Administration and Senior Managers, Director of Financial & Business Services, Governance & Legal, Director of PRUE and Asset Management Services to capture and manage their corporate information.

Consideration is currently being given to rolling out TRIM to other Sections & Divisions of the University to ensure that all corporate information is being captured and managed in accordance with current legislative, legal and business practices.
