Alfresco Software, an open source, content services provider announced the availability of Alfresco Policy and Procedures as a Service, a new Content Accelerator hosted in Alfresco Cloud. Alfresco Cloud enables enterprises to build process and content intensive apps without the cost and complexity of deploying, managing, and updating the platform themselves.

Alfresco Policy and Procedures as a Service is a no code, tailored solution accelerator using modern search features and reporting tools that enables business users to quickly and easily locate, change, approve, and release both simple business procedures (e.g., expense polices, hiring policies, disciplinary Policies, etc.) as well as more complex and regulated manufacturing and operations documents (e.g., specifications, standard operating procedures, batch records, formulation documents, etc.).

Joan Zerkovich, Senior VP Operations, American Association of Insurance Services, said: “AAIS deployed the Alfresco-based content solution via AWS for the management of property & casualty insurance policies and their supporting materials. The dynamic workflow and change control has allowed our users to streamline the collaborative efforts undertaken as a result of regulatory and market driven factors. In addition, the responsiveness of Alfresco in terms of integration opportunities has provided AAIS the support necessary to implement machine learning software as part of our overall toolset.”

Alfresco Policy and Procedures as a Service secures content so that consumers only have access to the correct approved or released documents, while authorized authors and approvers can update, annotate and approve work-in-progress documents. The solution also provides repeatable change control enabling users to initiate and process change request packages with both collaborative reviews as well as formal and dynamic workflow approvals that will gather electronic signatures. This ensures that changes to policies and procedures are correctly documented while demonstrating compliance with legal, quality, and regulatory requirements including support for electronic signatures aligning with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA 21 CFR Part 11), Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

It comprises a number of on-demand services including Content as a Service, Governance as a Service, and AI as a Service.
