TikitTFB to Replace BBE IRIS AIM System with Complete Case and Practice Management Solution
Wed, 28 Jul 2010
Fareham 28th July 2010 – Barker Booth & Eastwood, a long established firm of solicitors based in the North West, has chosen TikitTFB as their official solutions partner to replace their existing IRIS AIM Evolution Accounts system and introduce a comprehensive case and document management system firm-wide.
The 50 user system will be deployed in phases with the accounts and desktop components scheduled to go-live during September. The second phase will concentrate on developing the case management system including the creation of caseflows for their Personal Injury and Conveyancing departments, and is expected to be completed before the end of the year
The firm had been using AIM for a number of years with many of the precedents and processes unchanged since it was first instated. Tracy Kirkland and Sue Pilkington, Practice and Accounts Manager respectively, felt there was a need to move the firm forward and provide an improved way of working. Following a visit to the 2010 Legal IT show, they reviewed the upgrade path being offered by IRIS as well as a number of other vendors including Eclipse and Linetime before selecting TikitTFB and Partner for Windows as their preferred choice
Anne Morley, Matrimonial Partner at the firm comments, “This kind of investment requires a great deal of trust in your chosen supplier and confidence that the system is going to deliver as promised
“We see Partner for Windows and our relationship with TikitTFB as a long term commitment and we look forward to working with them to develop an advanced system that will allow us to improve the way in which we operate and manage processes on a day-to-day basis, compete more effectively in the market place, and most importantly provide a higher level of customer service to our clients.&rdquo
Partner for Windows will provide the firm with a fully-flexible and comprehensive solution that can be used across all their practice areas including Personal Injury, Conveyancing, Employment, Family Law, Commercial Property, Wills & Probate, and Civil Litigation. As Partner for Windows is fully-compliant with LSC requirements, the firm will be able to manage their Civil LSC contracts more profitably utilising functionality such as SMP reconciliation, and bulk export to the LSC website. The firm have also chosen to implement PartnerMail, an intelligent email management tool that helps to file emails to and from your inbox to the relevant case file in Partner for Windows, and the SMS module, which will allow them to communicate with clients and third parties quickly and discretely via text message
