You know the drill: the right content. In the right format. With the right approvals. Using the right process. Incorporating the right feedback.
It’s really hard for today’s teams to keep up with the growing burden of regulated documents that government and industry regulators demand. Until now it’s been a manual process; and you’ve been stuck with disconnected tools that are not fit for purpose.
Objective Keystone has everything you need in one place. A full suite of authoring, publishing and stakeholder engagement tools to automate and manage the entire document production lifecycle. The result: increased speed-to-publishing and a lower cost of compliance.
Produce documents faster with collaborative authoring
Speed up your project by enabling multiple authors, reviewers and approvers to work on different document content at the same time.
Work on the words, not on the format
No matter who is adding content to your document, you won’t waste valuable time reformatting, because publishing templates are built to your exact requirements.
Cascade a change across multiple documents
Updates to common clauses or images can be applied in the common content library and cascaded through in all relevant documents instantly.
Eliminate the risk of ‘missing something’
The headache of multiple versions of documents is removed by having everyone working with the single source of the truth.
Tame the burden of multiple rounds of reviews with multiple stakeholders
Assign team members, subject matter experts, managers and executives specific sections of a document for review and approval.
Collect supporting evidence, while you work
Editor and review notes can be added as contextual information. Because comments and changes are made at a content and document level, approvers are able to save time thanks to having all supporting evidence at their fingertips without having to open other files.
Lock down your content once it’s approved
Once approval has been given, the section of content is locked down. You’ll never need to re-review, re-approve it or recheck it for additional changes by a colleague, manager, graphic designer or typesetter.
When you’re ready to publish, do it in one click
Save time producing print-ready, digital and HTML versions with a single click using our multi-target publishing engine.
Re-publish easily without the pressure
Easily make last minute changes at 5pm on a Friday and republish in one click without needing your typesetter.
Single source, multiple brands
Produce your documents in multiple brands with ease from a single source document.
Use tasks and workflow to drive team activity
Choose between simple and advanced workflows to direct your team through the document lifecycle. Automatic task assignment and activity tracking frees up your time from admin to focus on the content.
Process dashboards for management
See at a glance where your document is in the process; identify bottlenecks and follow up with your team’s tasks.
Publish your document’s approvals trail in an instant
For when you need to show who did what and when. Publish a complete verification certificate showing every edit, note and approval.
Be more agile and responsive
In-line, document-based feedback allows you to analyse, respond and report faster to stakeholders during the consultation phase of the document lifecycle in-line in the document.
Pick your communication type to suit your purpose and your audience
Everyone communicates differently. Choose from a variety of response mechanisms such as polls, surveys, petitions and more.
Understand your audience over time
Build a profile of your users over time including their preferences and what documents they have submitted feedback on historically.
Have conversations where your audiences hang out
Social media integration enables you to embed polls and surveys on Facebook. Capture tweets and hashtags in our system of record to remain compliant with record keeping legislation. Log in using your LinkedIn or Google account.
Generate a record of everything that happened in a few clicks
From common content identification and extraction through to a comprehensive audit of every action; maintenance of historic versions of documents; and supporting notes and contextual information.
Ensure compliance with internal processes and regulatory obligations
Thanks to fully audited review, verification and sign-off processes managed using workflows.
Effortlessly facilitate simple and comprehensive review processes
Involving single or multiple stakeholders, authorities, and across all of your documents.
Facilitate easy sign-off for legal and executives
Through the use of automatically generated verification certificates detailing evidence points for key statements and performance data.
Encrypted
All traffic to and from the system can optionally be encrypted using banking grade encryption (SSL) to ensure all traffic is protected against network interception, cache browsing and other attach mechanisms.
Virus protected
Every content item uploaded from any user and of any format is automatically scanned for virus and other malware that may cause data loss or other problems.
Access control
Access is governed by user identification and passwords. It can be further strengthened by only accepting access requests from known networks.
Security certifications
Objective Keystone is certified to ISO27001:2013. Objective Corporation’s software development services are certified to ISO9001.
An excellent partnership has been established with Objective Keystone and will continue as the system adapts to any changes required by the new Planning Bill.
