Philadelphia, PA — October 7, 2014 — RSuite CMS, the leading multi-channel Content Management System for the publishing and media industry, has been selected by the World Bank. The World Bank’s publishing program consists of books, serial publications, technical papers, and multilingual content. They needed a secure central repository that could manage each aspect of their publishing process while also synchronizing metadata with third-party systems. A major goal is to update metadata once and synchronize it across systems automatically.

“As you can imagine, organizations such as the World Bank require significant security to operate their systems,” stated Michael Fishkow, Senior Project Manager at RSI Content Solutions. “Meeting the high-level security requirements with RSuite is a feather in our cap."

“After selecting RSuite in a competitive process, we look forward to the support it will provide as we move into a faster-paced and XML-early workflow,” stated Stacey Frank, Publishing Technology Officer, the World Bank. “The ability to manage production and delivery of our content components, with a tool that will be updated regularly, is a key part of our future plans."
