Updated document system ups productivity

Lloyds approves quality management system
Oasys' Quality Management System has been approved by Lloyd's Register Quality Assurance to IS 9001:2000 and TickIT Guide issue five and emphasises the satisfying of customer feedback.
It has received wide acclaim including a "Special Award" from the Institution of Civil Engineers in which one of the judges, Professor David Nethercot, remarked that a colleague had found six uses for Columbus.
Such was his belief in the new system; he challenged companies not to find at least one use for the software.
Columbus can be downloaded from the web site: http://columbus.arup.com The manuals offer a step-by-step guide to operating the software with additional handy hints and tips from the experts to maximise the benefits of this unique software.
Columbus originally drew appeal through its simple yet innovative approach to file management.
Unlike other such software, Columbus does not dictate how you work but instead provides a brand new way to organise existing computer data.
This is achieved through the Columbus virtual filing system, which allows related folders to be grouped together regardless of the actual file locations.
With its two built-in viewing engines, it can also view and print over 300 file formats.
The Columbus design is easy to use in the home or the work place and suitable for all kinds of companies, large or small.
All configuration can be carried out by people with minimal IT knowledge and the new manuals qualify as a perfect, self-help guide for all users of this software tool.
