This release was designed to let the corporate secretary office process and disseminate large volumes of sensitive information on tight deadlines. With these enhancements, corporate secretaries are better equipped to respond to the challenges of rapid information flow which increasingly characterizes today's boardroom environment.
Menlo Park, CA (October 24, 2005) — BoardVantage, the leader in secure portals for board work, today announced a set of key product enhancements which lets the corporate secretary office automate the process of board book preparation.
In its recent release, BoardVantage offers the corporate secretary office a set of productivity tools that facilitate the time-consuming process of aggregation and distribution of documents to their boards. The Toolkit minimizes the time it takes to implement an online agenda and board book. Corporate secretaries can now provide directors early access to meeting materials so that directors have adequate time to prepare for their meetings. In addition, new functionality in the Corporate Secretary Toolkit makes the time-consuming and stressful last minute updates to board materials a snap and board books can be customized with the click of a button.
"Previously, preparing for board meetings involved hours of preparation, stressful last minute updates and the costly and time-consuming delivery of bulky, hard copy board books," said Kathryn Paul, President and CEO of Delta Dental Plan of Colorado. "With the newest features in BoardVantage, the process has been streamlined, resulting in a dramatic increase in productivity."
The Toolkit also automates processes "in between" meetings such as consents, director questionnaires and document reviews through integrated workflows and actionable dashboards.
