During 25 years electronic data has been stored in many different ways. As the project was started more then 10 archives with most different structures and referencing data for Braille books, large print books, audio books and eBooks existed. For the reproduction of these products many different files and metadata are needed. The missing reference between ABACUS (product master files) and the different storing systems often caused time consuming searching by hand for required data before the reproduction could be started.

Mid-2009 SBS decided to introduce a professional document management system which could reduce the effort for the processing to a minimum, solve the problem of versioning and accomplish the different archives into an integrating Repository.
