Description

Simple Admation is a marketing approval workflow and project management platform built for marketing teams, creative agencies and regulated organisations in banking, insurance, health and retail — where compliance, version control and audit trails are non-negotiable. The platform manages the full creative production lifecycle from structured brief to final approved asset in one system, eliminating the email threads, shared drives and disconnected tools that create version confusion, approval delays and compliance failures. Marketing project management: structured brief templates capture all requirements before creative work begins. Task scheduling runs against live resource capacity, with campaign calendars, real-time dashboards and Gantt-style timelines giving managers full visibility across every active project. • Approval workflow: assets route through sequenced, multi-level approval pathways. Stakeholders annotate directly online — print, digital, video and HTML — with all feedback consolidated in one view. Automated reminders, batch approvals and forwarding tools reduce high-volume review cycle costs. • Online proofing: side-by-side revision comparison and consolidated feedback management give teams a single source of truth across every review cycle. • Compliance: tamper-proof audit trail records every review action and approval decision with timestamps and reviewer attribution. Mandatory checklists enforce compliance steps before sign-off. • Resource management: live resource planner, time tracking, skill-based scheduling and workload dashboards. Used by Bupa, Spotlight, NIB, RACV, HESTA, NIB, Hollard, Woolworths, Mondelez, Spotlight and Tourism Australia.

Description

In-STEP BLUE can manage corporate processes, workflows, or standards such as the German V-Modell XT or Automotive SPICE. You can tailor activities and artifacts according to your needs. The software features include project, requirements, document and resource management. You can also manage risk by modifying the version of the software from a central, multi-user Oracle database. Gantt-Charts and dashboards as well as cost planning and resource charts are all available to facilitate tracking progress. Remote access to progress data, scheduling, and other information is possible via the webapp.
