Creating critical documents just got easier.

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.

What is collaborative authoring?

Discover how this cloud-based collaborative authoring solution allows
multiple team members to work on the same document at the same time.

Author

Author

You focus on the words. We’ll take care of the rest.

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.

Approve

Img keystone approve

Approve

Your stakeholders’ time is scarce: use it wisely with a faster, more efficient approval process.

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.

Publish
