Reduce time spent on administration. Release information to the public on time.

The release of information requires a coordinated effort by individuals and teams within and across agencies and third party organisations. Responses have to be timely and must balance rights of access with the need to protect sensitive content.

Designed to support specialist staff and teams to navigate these complex requirements, Objective OpenGov helps you rapidly respond to information access requests. Workflow automation reduces time spent on administration, and increases the number of responses you're able to process.
