Secure documents, passwords and personal information using encryption and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). Provide system server backup and contingency to ensure access to documents during planned or unplanned downtime. Simple and intuitive, menu-driven, customizable portal or user interface. Modular software that components can be added or removed without requiring major upgrades or changing the functionality of the system. Multiple role or group based permission levels that enable different levels of user access. The system should enable easy addition and removal of user and level of access. Total traceability tracks who performed what steps of task or approval. Easy management of the entire life cycle of a document (create, edit, approve, issue and archive). Set priority tasks and reminders. Assign to self or other users. Customizable workflows based on department or level of importance.

Identify documents using a numeric or alphanumeric system and be traceable to associated forms, job aids, derivative documents or policies, etc. Offer customizable design elements for the system or document control log, which include but not be limited to, document number, name, implementation date, location of copies, last revision date/approval/version number, review date/approval, review due date, and date retired. It must capture the changes made between versions and have a link between the version and approval. Document control log is updated automatically as documents, versions, and approvals are updated. Standard file extension compatibility that allows upload of Word (.doc, .docx, .rtf, .odt), Excel (.xls and .xlsx), PDF (.pdf), Microsoft Vizio (.vsd, .vsdx), PowerPoint (.ppt and .pptx), image files (.png and .jpg/.jpeg), etc. without the need for conversion. The documents must display easily. Multiple options for document list, query, and categorize including keywords, departments, or review status. It must be secure from editing for both the draft and final except for those assigned. The document control system must ensure that only current policies procedures or forms are in use.
