Invu Overview

Since Invu was founded in 1997, it has focused on delivering electronic document management (eDM) to UK businesses. Expanding out from its core eDM proposition Invu has grown from servicing SMEs into more mid market firms with workflow and office automation additions to the product set. The core eDM product is a full .NET application and is available in a number of flavours for separate markets.

Invu is focused on maximising efficiencies in day to day working practices. It does so by automating business practices, from content capture, to simple task routing, to full process management through to content transformation. Invu is proven to be effective in many markets with clear ROIs based on saving time, costs and space.  Importantly, there are also less tangible benefits to be considered such as enhanced communications, retaining knowledge in the business, standardising processes and ensuring SLAs are met.

Under the initial ruling, all electronically held files which fell under the Act had to be made available to interested parties within a set time frame. Older files, not digitised, were exempt.

Under the October changes however: for end-user reference within the same 40-day time frame as the electronically held files already covered under the Act.
