Case Study: Halton Catholic District School Board achieves 4x faster, paperless meetings with eScribe Software

Halton Catholic District School Board Streamlines Communication and Embraces Environmental Future Technology that Matters

Halton Catholic District School Board, an Ontario district serving over 33,000 students, faced growing meeting volumes, rising administrative workload and budget pressure from producing and distributing paper agendas and minutes. Executive Assistant Danielle Ross determined meeting automation was needed and engaged eScribe Software, adopting their paperless meeting automation solution to support the board’s governance and values.

eScribe Software automated HCDSB’s entire meeting lifecycle—using SharePoint and Office integration—adding roll calls, audited voting, automatic minutes, a Participant Portal and iPad app, e-signatures and searchable archives. Implemented in under a year, the eScribe Software solution delivered measurable impact: 4x faster agenda production, the elimination of paper copies within eight months, reduced staff time and costs, streamlined meetings and a significantly smaller environmental footprint.
