CARA
A unified platform offering content services and business processing to support digital transformation with compliance and collaboration features.
Overview
CARA is a comprehensive platform designed to streamline enterprise content services and facilitate digital transformation. It consolidates multiple document management systems into a single, compliant platform, integrating compliance, authoring, transformation, collaboration, security, and audit traceability.
One of the key challenges in compliance is the use of outdated systems, which leads users to work outside controlled environments. CARA addresses this by providing a modern, intuitive interface that enhances collaboration while ensuring data security and traceability.
With CARA, users can quickly access necessary documents, enhancing efficiency and reducing the need for multiple independent systems. The platform allows for custom security, retention, and document processing rules, ensuring that content is easily accessible and reusable.
Building on technologies like Documentum, Alfresco, and Sharepoint, CARA offers best-in-class document management. It features configurable lifecycles, workflows, eSignature, versioning rules, metadata management, audit trails, and granular security controls.
Collaboration is seamless with CARA, allowing controlled authoring and annotation. Users can manage collaboration roles and durations, even with external partners, while the platform automatically handles external account access and auditing.
Security is paramount, with configurable rules and permissions ensuring only authorized access. Features like Single Sign-on and time-limited access enhance security, while the check-in/check-out function maintains document version integrity.
CARA also excels in content generation and data extraction, allowing automatic creation of forms, templated documents, and PDFs. It supports data extraction from various sources, storing it for reuse in a Structured Information Lake, and offers automation for data-driven document creation.
Structured Content Authoring is facilitated through a library of controlled components, enabling users to create documents with pre-filled approved content, reducing the need for starting from scratch.
Advanced document management processes are supported, including versioning, lifecycle management, and business process management, catering to both simple tasks and complex collaborative projects.
Document transformation is automated, allowing the creation of compliant PDFs from MS Office documents, and vice versa, with options for adding corporate overlays and graphics. Features like eSignature pages, watermarks, and controlled printing ensure content is rendered as needed.
