PowerDMS Overview

What is PowerDMS?

PowerDMS is a policy and compliance management platform for high-trust organizations. PowerDMS is the leading, cloud-based platform bringing compliance to life through policy, training, and accreditation management solutions. PowerDMS provides a secure, cloud-based repository to manage policy and procedure documents throughout the entire lifecycle. Develop, review, approve, distribute, and track every policy with confidence, knowing that only one version exists, old versions are archived, and every instance is up-to-date after revisions. This creates a single source of truth for all your policy content. With a platform like PowerDMS, you get an ecosystem where key management solutions and tools connect and inform one another. It gives you control over a single, living version of every document, so when you update a policy, for example, every instance of it in your training, public-facing documents, and accreditation systems is updated as well. In other words, PowerDMS brings compliance to life.

What do you like best about PowerDMS?

Power DMS makes it easy to create a policy by putting it into a workflow for review and comments to specific users. In the past we would send a document/policy out for our administration to review and would sometimes never hear back from a specific people or get a response such as I never received it. Now with PowerDMS once you add a workflow to a specific document for review you can assign it, audit where it is, who has looked at or commented on it, and even set deadlines or push it through if it is not moving along. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PowerDMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to track who has looked at and signed off on a policy within our agency, Being able to have the ability to create courses online and quizzes that occur annually and can be set up so that once it's completed you don't have to worry about it again until the next year when it will pop back up in a users box to be completed again the next year. It's also a great standards management tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
