Board Papers®

Precise Control over How Board Documents are Presented

Board Papers® uses a customized Microsoft SharePoint® interface for setting up meetings. Board secretaries determine what documents are part of a “meeting pack,” who should receive meeting packs, when to download documents to attendees’ iPads and when documents will be archived.

Custom cover styles reflect an organization’s unique branding. Individual cover styles can be selected to differentiate committee and monthly meeting packs. Meeting-specific notes can be added to each cover.

Board Papers

Secure Environment from Server to iPad

While traditional board portal solutions require you to upload your board documents to vendors’ servers, Board Papers is deployed on your internal SharePoint servers. You have complete control of your sensitive material.

A lockbox system in the iPad app requires users to login to access documents. Escalating security features are triggered by invalid login attempts, eventually causing all board documents to be deleted from the iPad. Documents are also automatically removed based on “archive” dates set in SharePoint.

Board Papers

A Responsive Fingertip Experience

Board members no longer need to carry around paper documents or try to read off of laptops sitting on conference room tables. All documents required for a meeting are stored on a board member’s iPad.

Board Papers’ agenda-based navigator allows users to go from one document to another with a finger tap. Proprietary caching techniques provide best-in-class performance when zooming in or paging through content. Board members can swipe through the largest documents or move immediately to a specified page number.

Board Papers

A Full Set of Annotation Tools

As they review documents, board members need to add notes, underscore items and scribble in the margins. Board Papers provides integrated pen, highlighter and note tools for annotating documents on the iPad. Pen and highlighter colors can be selected on-the-fly to color-code markings.

The annotation navigator makes it easy for users to delete or navigate to any annotation they inserted in a meeting pack. Board members don’t have to browse through documents to find that note that they knew they had made.

"Most board portals are offered as software-as-a-service. Board Papers lets you keep your documents under your control."
