The STEPS Governance System is a
database and item management tool that; |
- Tracks and manages items,
data and processes to keep your finger on the pulse all the
time.
- Reports progress through 24/7 updated status reports on any
aspect of your business.
- Notifies stakeholders when milestones are reached or status of items change and action is required.
- Empowers managers to make smart
decisions that save cost and enhance productivity.
Get a holistic view of your business,
for instance, know exactly:
- The value of your business i.e. quantity
and value of tracked items.
- What progress is made, including status
updates and milestones reached.
- Turnaround times - when will it be done?
- What the trends are over a
period of time.
- Which items are overdue and tasks have been completed.
- What feedback is captured during the lifetime of a
tracked item.

The STEPS Governance Framework is powerful, yet amazingly simple to
use.
- It follows a
Step-by-Step approach to accomplish tasks quickly that normally
takes hours to complete.
- You can
start with a basic
solution configured to meet your minimum requirements and
later expand to a comprehensive Internet management tool that can manage
every aspect of your business.

- You have one consolidated database
that is centrally managed and
grows with your business.
-
Custom reports can be
developed for trend analysis and to provide detailed information about every
aspect of a business.
You will save hours every week by
re-generating real time reports that can be
copied and presented to colleagues and EXCO members.
- You may limit access to certain areas
of the application (e.g. reporting),
and delegate work
to multiple users.
- Sensitive data is protected
by a reliable security system.
- The technical
side of the application is managed by a team of professionals.
- There is no risk - IF you decide at a later stage to
switch to another system, data (reports) can
be exported in excel format.

CUSTOMISATION
AND SUPPORT |
We provide two hosting options: |
| 1. |
A
Hosted Solution - multiple clients share the same server. Data is secure and
you can login from anywhere to manage items.
|
| 2.. |
Client Intranet Solution - This option is available to medium to large organisations
with the system installed on their internal network.
Blue chip organisations pay millions to develop
similar systems. We provide a full enterprise solution at
rates that are much more affordable.
The system can be integrated to legacy systems.
With a client Intranet solution there are no limitations to
the customisation that can be done to meet your
requirements. |

In both cases we provide full
technical support and you do not have to
worry about a thing.
