I worked on the pilot of this project for ACPOS, the system is to manage *their* documents such that it is easier for them to find the answer to any FoIA requests they may get. As their documents are all created using MS products then it made sense to use Sharepoint to do this. This system should have no bearing on what system you use to make the FoIA request in the first place.
