Full text information retrieval software for use in government administration (a selection procedure and process)

Abstract

A project, involving selection procedures for choosing information retrieval software (full text) for government administration oriented applications and users, was undertaken by a team from Malam Systems Ltd, an Israeli government‐owned computer company, centre and software house.. A case study and comparison of six IR software systems, Basis, BRS, Context, Documaster, Responsa, TRS, were undertaken as part of the selection process and a list of up to twenty seven selection criteria were compiled in order to evaluate the systems accordingly. Pilot systems, based on an excerpt from a catalogue of custom import fees, were developed in order to test the efficiency and functionality of the IR software system.
