North America Excellence Award:
Workflow, Silver (1997). Nominated by Eastman Software
The Consolidated Edison Automated Workflow
System (AWF)is used by approximately 600 Customer Service Representatives
(CSRs). When they first installed the system these employees worked on
three types of paper: · Customer correspondence (one million letters per
year) · Faxes from government organizations (100,000 faxes per year)·
Mainframe documents which were sent to printers (several million
"citations" per year). These mainframe documents are citations
produced each evening in the batch process, which highlight potential
problems with accounts These documents, in their electronic form, are now
processed through the AWF system throughout the day.

Asia Excellence Award:
Workflow and Imaging, Gold (1997). Nominated by Eastman Software
Corporatizing the supply of
water in Australia's second largest city and breaking away from an
expensive mainframe environment provided the impetus for water supplier
Yarra Valley Water to develop and implement image and data retrieval
systems in a cost-effective client/server environment. When the Victorian
Government restructured Melbourne's water industry (Melbourne Water) on 1
January 1995, it was evident the three retail water companies formed by
the split-Yarra Valley Water, City West Water and South East Water-would
have to sever ties with the archaic and expensive mainframe-based system
owned by the parent company.
