Slutins Descriptin Banner Dcument Management Suite (BDMS) is the baseline Banner mdule fr imaging and dcument management. SunGard Higher Educatin and EMC Dcumentum, a divisin f EMC Crpratin, have frmed a partnership t prvide an integrated dcument management and imaging slutin fr Banner based upn the ApplicatinXtender Cntent Management platfrm. SunGard Higher Educatin is the leading prvider f technlgy and business slutins fr higher educatin. EMC Dcumentum is a leading prvider f missin-critical cntent and strage management slutins fr a wide variety f markets. SunGard Higher Educatin has partnered with these prven leaders t create, service, and supprt the ApplicatinXtender suite f sftware prducts as an integrated element within SunGard Higher Educatin s wn Banner slutins. Banner Dcument Management Suite integrates the ApplicatinXtender suite with Banner administrative slutins t prvide seamless availability f imaging, dcument management, enterprise wrkflw, utput management, prtable dcument cllectins, and strage management ptins fr bth Banner and nn-banner users.
