Meeting the complex demands of PR24 production

A unique and proven approach to complex document creation for PR24 and the business plans it establishes.

Revolutionising PR24 document creation

There is no denying that regulation is needed, but it can be costly and time consuming.  Keeping up with the growing burden of complex documents that regulators demand, is getting more challenging for the stakeholders involved.

Business planning is a continuous process for water and wastewater companies, with the new price review cycle beginning almost as soon as the previous has ended.  As such, this labour-intensive exercise detracts from delivering on other community outcomes. 

And that’s just for Price Review.  Add in your Water Resource Management Plans, Flood Risk Management Plans and River Basin Management Plans, etc. and the resourcing issue escalates further.  Objective Keystone offers the solution.

Stakeholder-wide collaborative authoring

Stakeholder-wide collaborative authoring

Say goodbye to using outdated tools, spreadsheets, documents, track changes, and email trails.

Produce documents faster with collaborative authoring.

Speed up your document creation process by enabling multiple authors, reviewers, and approvers from across the organisation (as well as external consultants) to collaborate on different content from one master document, at the same time.

Relieve the pain of collating and checking hundreds of pages from multiple documents.

Editing is intuitive, version control means you can check changes or roll back, and audit trails give document owners visibility of all activity.

Eliminate duplication.

Type once and update everywhere by cascading re-usable content such as definitions, charts, tables, images and more across documents, avoiding the need for content duplication.
