Spend less time on the process and fast-track community development.
Spend less time on the process and fast-track community development.
You want to deliver strategic plans efficiently and in a way that doesn’t stifle community involvement. You want to encourage discussion and ultimately allow development to flourish.
Through collaborative authoring and stakeholder engagement, organisations can author, approve, publish and engage on large strategic documents, with governance, automation and control. From large government departments and executive agencies to small district councils, the Objective Keystone solution helps public agencies transform the way they develop policies and strategies and engage with their stakeholders.
Multiple contributors can work on a document at the same time. Colleagues can work together with shared templates, content and workflows to build impactful, cohesive and consistently structured plans.
Everyone is working on one master document. Change history, version management, comments and actions are all audited and tracked.
Assign specific sections to management for sign off. Fully audited review, verification and sign-off processes are managed using workflows, ensuring both statutory and policy requirements are adhered to.
Capture and record stakeholder information and submissions in a powerful stakeholder database with excellent reporting capabilities.
Ensure inclusivity for all consultations with a multi-channel, browser-based engagement platform. Allow users and the community to access consultations anytime, anywhere. Users can interact with stakeholders though surveys, polls, meeting and social media channels, with easy to use, in-document submissions to plans.
Submissions are returned to you in a structured format that allows for swift analysis, faster response back to the community and easier reporting.
Remove distractions and speed up your project by assigning authors and management specific sections of the plan.
Understand at a glance who made what changes, under what authority and based on what evidence.
No reliance on graphic designers or typesetters to produce multiple web and print-ready formats.
Have conversations where your community is chatting while staying compliant as data is stored in our system of record.
Perform faster analysis, reporting and personalised responses to inline feedback from the community on your plan.
Reduce internal submission handling and improve community engagement with web-based plan hosting and in-line submission responses.
