Zavanta Software

SOP and Policy Management

 
Zavanta Overview

Trusted by Our Clients

Customers love Zavanta for its user-friendly interface and efficient policy and procedure management. But don't just take our word for it—check out our G2 ratings!

Traditional methods to create, communicate, and manage policies and procedures aren't working.

Create a single source of truth with Zavanta 

Clearly communicated and accessible SOPs and policies are essential for any organization. Together, they provide a roadmap for daily operations and good decision-making. Regulatory and accreditation bodies require them, as well as proof employees are using them.      

Yet, many businesses continue to flounder with decentralized documents contained in silos in file-sharing services like SharePoint, in binders on a shelf, or outdated versions saved on a desktop.  

Your customized and branded employee portal will become your single source of truth for policies, procedures, work instructions, and more. Learn more about the Zavanta user experience.

Structured content model

SOPs and Policies have unique characteristics: high volume, fast-change, diverse audience. Uniformity is a must-have.  

Free-form text entered into MS Word templates lack needed controls, structure, and built-in intelligence.  

Zavanta captures knowledge content and breaks it up into logical units or "chunks" stored in a database so that it is easier to find, use, update, translate, track, validate, monitor, and re-purpose for different audiences and applications.

Link policies to procedures 

Zavanta's unique "drill-down" architecture links high level processes and policies to the standard operating  procedures (SOPs) employees should follow to comply with policies.  

The result: you have a complete ecosystem that connects all the information people need to do their jobs, not just one part of the picture. You can take any process and walk someone through it from start to finish.

Break down knowledge transfer barriers

Make it easy for your experts to share their know-how.Why force people to stare at a blank screen wondering what to write or waste time formatting documents? That's the old way. 

Zavanta's guided authoring wizard provides the performance support people need and automatically formats everything. Anyone can create a "smart" SOP, which means someone unfamiliar with the task can follow the procedure and do the job correctly, with minimal supervision.
