The Foreign & Commonwealth Office uses Knowvation for its new UK Treaties Online service. Part of GOV.UK, the Knowvation provides full-text search and retrieval access to the UK's bilateral and multilateral treaties documents and is accessible from desktop and mobile devices. PTFS Europe implemented Knowvation and provides on-going hosting and support services.

Knowvation digital repository system

Knowvation allows organisations to store, search, retrieve, browse and manage a diverse set of content and digital objects within one easy to use system. Knowvation is an entirely web-based, full-text search and retrieval digital repository and management system.

Nick Phipps, Director of Sales at PTFS Europe, added "We are delighted that the Foreign & Commonwealth Office decided to use Knowvation for the new UK Treaties Online service. The new service makes full use of Knowvation's powerful tools such as concept and pattern searching."
