Information management company Infotrieve, Inc., US, has announced the launch of the new Content SCM software solution at the biopharma company UCB.
Content SCM is Infotrieve's web-based technology for automating document sourcing and delivery with a full array of rights management capabilities, copyright compliance auditing, and complete view of content usage throughout the entire organisation - both licensed and pay-per-view content. It is claimed to be the only product which brings document delivery and rights management together in one seamless solution. A unique content supply chain management platform, Content SCM was designed from the point of view of the actual content user and the administrators responsible for managing, purchasing, and ensuring copyright compliance of that content.
End users can easily research content using integrated search and discovery platforms with advanced citation referencing capabilities, select and order specific articles, advice as to how the content is being used, see the cost of the article, and then place an order. Content SCM will check copyright compliance rights based on each client agreement with reproductive rights organsations then secure the article through licensed content, internal holdings, or on a pay-per-view basis.
By implementing Content SCM, administrators have a full view of all content being accessed and by whom, the intended usage of each article, compliance details, how it was delivered, and all associated costs. This granular information will allow for more cost effective content licensing in the future.
