Case Study: Archdiocese of Perth achieves streamlined records management and digital access with Laserfiche

Laserfiche Transforms Digital Capabilities in Australia’s Archdiocese of Perth

The Archdiocese of Perth, a large Catholic organization in Western Australia, needed a modern way to manage vast amounts of information across 110 parishes, agencies, and schools, while also responding to Royal Commission recommendations. Working with Laserfiche, it sought a secure records management solution to replace siloed, inconsistent information handling and preserve documents dating back to the 1840s.

Laserfiche helped the Archdiocese digitize and archive historical records while bringing current records into one secure system, creating a single source of truth. The result was faster access to information, improved workflow automation across parishes, and hundreds of hours saved each year for safeguarding support, with some searches that once took weeks now available in real time.
