Case Study: City of Sterling achieves paperless, cost- and time-savings in board governance with BoardDocs

For the City of Sterling, IL, choosing BoardDocs to save time and money was easy

The City of Sterling faced cumbersome, paper-based agenda creation and meeting management that made research, public access and compliance with the Open Meetings Act difficult. To move to an eco-friendly, cloud-based solution the City of Sterling selected BoardDocs and implemented the BoardDocs LT platform to replace manual packet assembly and hand-delivery of materials.

BoardDocs LT gave the City of Sterling an electronic, searchable repository for agendas and supporting documents, faster agenda creation and approval workflows, and improved public access and Open Meetings Act compliance. The vendor’s training and 24/7 support accelerated adoption, produced significant reductions in staff time and production costs, and delivered the full system for about $3,000 per year.
