Case Study: Onderstepoort Biological Products Achieves Paperless, More Collaborative Board Management with Azeus Convene

OBP Vaccines Increase Collaboration and Productivity with a Paperless Management Software

Onderstepoort Biological Products (OBP), a South African biopharmaceutical company producing veterinary vaccines, was managing board and committee meetings manually through email and paper-based board packs. As a National Key Point, OBP also needed a more secure way to handle confidential documents and reduce the risk of information breaches. To address these challenges, OBP chose Azeus Convene and began using Convene in July 2021.

Azeus Convene helped OBP move to a fully paperless meeting process, streamline agenda building, minutes compilation, and document sharing, and enable real-time updates and collaboration through permissions-based access controls and Review Rooms. The result was faster board pack preparation, shorter turnaround time for minutes, improved security, and more effective meetings across onsite and online participants. OBP also reported saving money, using no paper at all, and benefiting from 24/7 support from Azeus Convene.
