Birmingham City Council cuts costs without cutting corners

Birmingham City Council’s corporate communications team decided to use technology to find time and cost savings. As a result they have created a robust, automated process using Panacea Software, which has allowed them to:

Create an efficient workflow
Allow their colleagues to self-serve
Cut the cost of their services
Gain control and management information.

These benefits are extended, with the seamless addition of Panacea Software’s Asset Manager module.

We have been using Panacea for 18 months, and it has allowed us to better manage the very busy workload of a team of 12 people. We have also been able to reduce the amount of management and administration time associated with staff capacity, internal and external charging and financial monitoring. When we introduced Panacea, the support team were on hand to help us understand the new system, refine our existing work processes and integrate the system into how we work.

Birmingham City Council chose to use the Panacea Asset Manager solution as it enables us to gain control and track our digital assets, set clear and transparent permissions of use and manage our digital assets. The Asset Manager has been simply added to our existing Panacea Software Platform. It’s all been very easy.
