The Perth Mint is Australia's official bullion mint and wholly owned by the Government of Western Australia. Created by an act of Parliament, The Mint is operated by The Gold Corporation and is a unique, global enterprise operating across the precious metals value chain, including precious metals refining, manufacturing, investing and storage. The Perth Mint is also one of the State’s premier tourist destinations. It is known to have “The Purest Gold of all”

The Perth Mint decided to upgrade their EDRMS from TRIM 7 to Records Manager 8.3, to suit the current business needs of the organisation. TRIM had a low usage point and in some areas was not trusted to hold the highly sensitive information The Gold Corporation was dealing with. Trim had been managed by multiple people over a decade with mixed success resulting in a system that worked well in some areas but poorly in others.

The solution was to design and implement a phased approach to upgrade the EDRMS from TRIM 7 to Records Manager 8.3
