Castlepoint expands govt client base

Castlepoint Systems has revealed that two-thirds of Australian federal government portfolios have now adopted its AI-powered record management automation technology.

Last financial year alone the company signed up new government agency customers including the departments of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry; Attorney-General’s; Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water; Education; and Employment and Workplace Relations.

The company also had a customer base spanning the higher education, critical industry and the commercial sectors, and now manages over 286.5 million records for its clients.

Castlepoint CEO Rachael Greaves said the company is playing a key role in helping the federal government manage the ongoing growth in digital records.

“The volume of digital records held by Commonwealth entities has jumped from 51 terabytes in 2013, to more than 314,000 TB in 2022. There is just too much volume, variety and velocity of data for legacy control methods to be effective,” she said.

“Castlepoint has disrupted these traditional models that have failed the test of time, and helped keep the Australian public service at the forefront of accountability and responsibility. By making discovery, audit, privacy, cybersecurity and records management part of one enterprise capability, we have joined the hands of compliance and cyber teams united against a common threat environment.”
