Abstract: Record management of a business unit is aligned to a digital records policy of a business enterprise. The digital records policy may require process, technology and cultural changes to shift from paper to digital records management. Paper intensive processes tend to have a number of economic, environmental, and operational disadvantages. In addition, government regulations are increasingly requiring businesses to be able to locate and retrieve information quickly. An implementation document contains information about a business process so that a business process supporting digital records may be compared with a digital records policy of the business enterprise. If there are any gaps between the business process and the digital records policy, an action plan may be constructed in order to eliminate or mitigate the gaps. Also, the economic benefits for a business unit migrating to digital records may be analyzed by a business case wizard tool.

Abstract: A furcation apparatus for a multi-conductor cable of the type having reinforcing fibers for longitudinal strength. The furcation apparatus includes a furcation spacer having a plurality of passages extending through an interior of the furcation spacer from a first end to a second end. Each passage is of a size sufficient to receive a furcation tube having reinforcing fibers, and each furcation tube is of a size sufficient to receive one of the plurality of conductors of the cable. The furcation tube reinforcing fibers approach the furcation spacer from the second end and are anchored adjacent the first end, and the cable reinforcing fibers approach the furcation spacer from the first end and are anchored adjacent the second end, such that tensioning the furcation tube reinforcing fibers and cable reinforcing fibers places the furcation spacer under compressive stress.
