Good governance is at the top of the business agenda. From the boards of huge commercial concerns to public sector housing associations board members are under increasing pressure to ensure that their organisations are well run.

Risk management is becoming an increasingly important consideration for the board. BoardPacks integrates risks and controls into the meeting agenda making it easy to review risk regularly. The app has a heatmap to give the board an overview of risks by priority. From here, you can select a risk and find all the related documentation, scheduled reviews, controls and procedures to manage the risk and ensure it doesn’t turn into a problem.

Board members’ responsibilities have grown, as the need for them to be able to take a more active role in the governance of their organisations. The amount of information that they are expected to grasp is ever increasing but what is the solution? Board members need to govern their organisations. That’s where the BoardPacks portal comes in.


Modules:

The Meetings module lets meeting attendees know when and where each of their committees are meeting, what documents they need to read, and what was said in previous meetings.

The Decisions module can help decision-makers make better decisions based on the latest information. It also creates transparency and consistency within the decision making process as decisions are all recorded and easy to find again. Conducting an audit is simple as all the information is in one place.

The Controls module provides a framework for managing the different risks that may impact your organisation. It helps you leave complicated spreadsheets behind and makes the risk register easier to manage.

The BoardPacks Knowledge module is more than a static data repository, the easily accessible, secure, central storage of documents can be viewed from anywhere in the world. The structured format makes it easy to find what you’re looking for quickly, otherwise the search bar will. Your favourites folder is also accessible offline.
