Adding Value and Solving Pain Points

Reduce disclosure risk with the only all-in-one, Microsoft Office-based, disclosure management solution. Use anywhere you want to combine words and numbers for publication, not just for regulatory and statutory reports. Exercise control over high frequency, recurring, multi-author reports. Bring speed, accuracy, and consistency to a laborious, error-prone, uncontrolled process.

Slow, Manual Process

Creating reports can be tedious involving long hours to hit rigid deadlines. Too much time is spent on low-value work (editing and validating data, text, and commentary), leaves limited time for specialists to make insightful decisions based on analytics.

Speed
  • Work within the products you already know.
  • Automatically roll forward documents to the next period to compress production cycles.
  • Drive economies of scale by sharing content across multiple reports and distributing in multiple output formats.
  • Save time and money by reducing proofing cycles with external printers and eliminating the 24-hour plus pencil-down period.
Outdated Data

It is hard to produce consistent internal/external reports that effectively tell the right story behind the numbers. Numbers or facts within the final reports can be out of date before the report is even published.

Accuracy
  • Always tell the most accurate story around your company results, with confidence.
  • Strong access controls and single sign-on ensure only authorised users can change and approve narrative.
  • Workflow controls streamline and expedite the production cycle.
  • Process task and check lists provide simple guidance to keep everything on track. An audit trail lets you see who did what and when, while validation rules tie out one part of the document to another to accelerate the review cycle.
Lack of Control

There is no compliance or control during "close to disclose" period as authors spend hours manually copying and pasting data from source systems or disparate spreadsheets. Passing files back and forth over poorly controlled channels, such as email, puts the integrity of the company's process at risk.

Consistency
  • Direct connectivity to source data and the ability to add links to data items into the narrative, which is shared within and across documents, ensuring consistent reporting with a single version of the truth.
  • Refresh the data at any time to automatically update the report narrative as numbers fluctuate to reduce the risk of manual errors.
