The purpose of  USCS™  is to assign a single, appropriate classification to EVERY record or document. This provides uniformity when classifying ANYTHING. Using Infologics' patented USCS, the need for time-consuming, full-text searches is virtually eliminated.

Classifying documents bring together items that have the same subject and retention value. The classification code structure is linked to all relevant document management functions, as well as legal and administrative retention requirements. Selective and timely purging of documents is easily made possible, greatly facilitating the management of information for both current and prospective use.

The system provides a true interlingual mechanism. Using generic terminology in a specially oriented hierarchical structure, it directs the user to a single classification. By arranging "generic terms" in a classified format, the system provides a single location for each record series.

Users can employ their own personal synonyms to search for documents. Synonyms make it possible for anyone to use industry jargon, acronyms, company terminology, or foreign terms. The system "learns" as synonyms are added, capturing differences in individual perception.

Based on a standard business Chart-of-accounts, our USCS  provides the ability to classify documents in such a way as to be easily retrievable by anyone.

Classifications are used for:

• Searching
• Records Management Policy
• Security
• Disaster Recovery
• Replication Policy
• Version Control Policy

And

USCS reduces search time by 90%
