Records management and the use of mobile technology

Automation of records management is a key in ensuring availability, confidentiality and
integrity of information. To ensure continuity and improved service delivery the Fund has put
in place appropriate applications and infrastructure to manage its records. The Fund stores
its records in both soft and hard copies, where it makes use of Laserfiche application to store
scanned images of documents and electronic movable shelves to store the physical
documents.
 
In order to ensure that customers are well informed about the available services, the Fund
has adopted the use of mobile applications where customers can use their mobile devices to
connect to the Fund 19s database and inquire about their registration status, payment status,
contributions statements or even do some provisional registration. This has significantly
reduced the need for customers to flock into Fund 19s offices for service.
