The Polytechnic University hosted an industry conference, "The Importance of Directum Electronic Document Management System in the Polytechnic University Information Infrastructure." Experts discussed the benefits of implementing the Directum system and shared their experiences with digitalization in education.
The conference was organized by SPbPU and SoftSnow, and sponsored by Directum.
Directum RX is a unique electronic document management system for universities developed by SoftSnow. This system automates processes and documents essential to any university, including maintaining academic records, creating a personnel file repository, managing various contracts, creating long-term archives, and more.
Directum RX simplifies employee work through quick document registration, template auto-completion, integration with other university information systems, report generation, and much more.
Polytechnic University's IT department heads shared their experiences in digitalizing the university, while invited experts presented other examples of IT projects implemented in higher education.
Andrey Lyamin, Vice-Rector for Information Technology and Digital Transformation at SPbPU, and Georgy Terentyev, CEO of SoftSnow, addressed the guests with welcoming remarks. They noted the importance of the conference as a platform for exchanging experiences with leading experts in the field of digitalization of education.
Andrey Lyamin presented his paper to conference participants on "SPbPU's Information Infrastructure and the Role of Directum in It." He discussed the university's digital infrastructure and the evolution of its information system architecture, as well as managing multiple accounts and portals. Lyamin also focused on information security and the development of new domestic software.
All documents in the accounting systems are recorded in accordance with the law. This includes financial reports, educational and research activity reports. This means there's strict reporting, no data changes, and everything is regulated. That's why we use large-scale solutions like Directum here," Andrey Lyamin explained.
Georgy Terentyev delivered a presentation entitled "The Directum Solutions Ecosystem as a Driver of Higher Education Digitalization," in which he explained in detail the Directum platform and its advantages. He also discussed approaches to implementing and configuring the system.
Directum is the foundation upon which the digitalization of daily tasks and routine processes rests, noted Georgy Terentyev.
Conference attendees also heard several expert presentations on the development of information systems, successes in IT project implementation, and trends and prospects for IT systems in education. Alexander Pavlov, Head of the Department of Information Support and Automation of Electronic Document Management at SPbPU, presented "The Experience of Digitalizing Internal Processes at Polytechnic University Based on Directum Solutions." Ilya Petukhov, Project Manager for AI Product Development at DIRECTUM, presented "Directum RX – An Intelligent Ecosystem with Embedded Generative AI. Practical Cases of Using AI in Universities and Other Major Clients." Yuri Tikhonov, Sales Manager at SoftSnow, also presented two other papers: "New Promising Solutions from Directum" and "HR Electronic Document Management Based on Directum HR Pro."
Participants were also given a tour of the Technopolis Polytech supercomputer center and engineering complex, where they learned about ongoing internal and external projects, as well as the management and structure of the information ecosystem.
