Australia’s National Blood Authority (NBA) shares sensitive content with other agencies on a regular basis. They needed a content collaboration platform that neatly integrated with their existing Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solution to collaborate with organizations outside the firewall, while keeping data secure.

Content security was one reason the NBA chose to work with Objective. Rob Mills, Objective’s Global Vice President of Connect Solutions, explains, “The NBA chose us because of the security certifications earned by the Connect application and the Azure platform.” Integrating the new system with an in-house document management system was another key requirement.

With Objective’s deep experience in systems integration, deploying the solution, which integrated with HPE Content Manager, went smoothly. Today, the NBA uses a more agile method of collaboration. They are confident that the sensitive content that is shared with organizations outside their firewall is kept secure. A process that used to be labor-intensive and error-prone is now automated. As a result, the NBA saves about six times the cost of their annual subscription fees on a yearly basis.

Mills was excited about Objective’s partnership with Microsoft, from both a technology and business standpoint. “Microsoft gives us really solid technology and it’s getting better all the time, and we would expect that,” he said. “But what we’re really getting out of Microsoft is a great business partner. We’re really happy with the way we interact with Microsoft.”
