The ultimate solution when you are working with outsourced service providers, developers, citizens or your mobile workforce.
Expanding digital collaboration presents serious challenges for local governments that are the custodians of confidential records and highly sensitive information.
Objective Connect is a IRAP assessed, external file sharing solution that gives complete control over the information shared outside council. Partnering with councils across Australia, New Zealand and the UK, Objective Connect is the organisation-wide solution they all rely on to support them in delivering greater outcomes for their communities.
Existing information policies and permissions are checked first before sending documents directly from your existing electronic document and records management system (eDRMS). Two-way synchronisation maintains a single source of truth. Every file received is automatically filed in the correct location.
Set individual abilities for every participant in every Workspace to match the needs and legal requirements of individual projects. Sensitive documents can even be set to preview-only to prevent local downloads.
Protect your organisation by providing full disclosure on every interaction on every document. From Workspace invites - to document downloads - to comments made - prove in seconds who did what and when.
Seamless integration with Objective Nexus and Content Manager means any files you update are instantly broadcast to external parties; and any files you receive are saved in the correct location in your file plan, every time.
Transition traditional paper-based processes and communication involving people outside your council to digital. What previously took days can now be completed in minutes.
Secure Workspaces are easily set up in 60 seconds by business users.
