Parks Canada is realigning its various and disparate cultural resource information systems into one standardized national system to be ac cessed by employees across the country. Furthermore, this is an opportunity to create an efficient and effective tool for reporting and de cision making. Parks Canada is looking for a Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) product which is SPECTRUM compliant and specializes in cultural resource management. A major consideration for the success of the Cultural Resource Management Information System (CRMIS) is that it effectively supports functional areas in managing cultural resources. In so doing, CRMIS elements will constitute a single, authoritative information source for cultural resource management including:

•collections management (e.g. archaeological, historic, reproductions, and refere nce holdings); • site information management (e.g. archaeological sites, cultural resource locations in national historic sites, national parks, and national marine conservation areas); • curatorial and historical services (e.g. acquisition, documentation, disposal); • conservation, conservation sciences and preventative conservation management (e.g. conservation assessment, treatment and preventative conservation of objects); • digital and non-digital asset management as it pertains to cultural resource management; and, management decision making.
