Formal Meetings within a sound corporate governance framework call for documentation audit trails that historically saw the production of board or meeting packs that were collated in files running to up to about 1,000 pages. Today you have the choice of switching to our digital bookmark app that hosts the same content within a knowledge management system. We call it the one click, content communicator. Mobile handsets do not have a mouse, the technology is geared to scrolling down through lists and clicking to open documents, e-mail or dial. Our Meeting Pack Communicar lists meeting documentation and links to documents.
Online Reading Rooms
Our online reading rooms can be set up as private or public reading rooms where links are setup to documents on a topic. Many "Reading Rooms" on a variety of topics form an Online Library. The Online Library can be hosted on an Online Library Communicator with one click, links to reading rooms on as many topics as are required.
In the legal profession private reading rooms could be set up on areas of focus with the library being a button bookmark app on a partner's phone. Partners could add Dashboard comments for other partners or they can add private messages to themselves or to other partners.
A retail hardware business could host an online library with reading rooms on product ranges eg a reading room on generators could discuss criteria and link to the operating/service manuals on a variety of products. The Dashboard Chat can host FAQ's.
Virtual Meeting Rooms
The virtual meeting room has the reading room as a base and adds a range of functionality that takes collaboration to the next level. Presentations can be shared during a meeting as can documentation that arises during discussions. The dashborad chat option boosts efficiency as all participants can be directed to add their views simultaneously (this can be anonymous) on a given matter on the agenda. Opinion survey polls and voting can be added at any stage as can participants register comments for the record. The meeting room has the facility for a Meeting Administrator to share and edit an agenda, take minutes and record resolutions and action plans. The use of templates not only speeds up minute taking but it ensures that a defined meeting process is followed. During a meeting participants can open the virtual meeting room on their screens so as to have ready access to meeting pack and other documents, on the record and off the record caht, private messages, the agenda, resolutions, action plans and more. In summary it is a "Meeting Wall" that offers access to meeting efficiency enablers. Participants can be in one physical room, at various locations or a combination of both.

Meeting Pack delivery is instant no matter where participants may be.
Saves time and money
as the cost of printing and collating 500 to 1,000 pages is significant.
Part Delivery is Easy thus providing more time to "work the pack"
and updating Board Pack Content and Agendas does not affect the pack quality.
Stored content is accessible within a sound knowledge management system.
The documentation is easily delivered in less time and it is portable.
Board Packs linked to Virtual Meeting Rooms support pre-meeting idea sharing and clarification as the virtual meeting room becomes a pre-meeting READING ROOM.
Participants can record comments as private messages to themselves
at any time before and after the meeting in the Virtual Meeting Room.
