Estimated replacement cost: $40,000
System name: iManage
Purpose: information management system
Date and reason for replacement: the Authority decommissioned iManage in 2025 because it was unable to meet collaboration requirements, and replaced it with SharePoint
Estimated replacement cost: no replacement cost, as SharePoint is included in the Authority’s existing Microsoft user licensing.
ECCA:
EECA has a modernisation plan in progress to ensure all software and services are up-to-date and supported by the vendor; however, providing details of these systems could prejudice the ongoing security of EECA’s systems and networks. This work is scheduled to be completed by end of June 2026 using existing internal resources.
