Case Study: Alpha Plus Group achieves streamlined, secure board governance with OnBoard Board Management Software

How OnBoard helped this education group improve board communication and reduce board paper preparation time

Alpha Plus Group, one of London’s largest private school providers, was struggling to prepare and distribute 200–350 page board packs for 13 board members across multiple countries for eight meetings a year, creating long preparation times, security risks (packs going missing), and difficulty keeping remote directors engaged. To solve this, Alpha Plus Group evaluated options and chose OnBoard Board Management Software (OnBoard) as their digital board platform.

OnBoard Board Management Software delivered an intuitive, secure portal with Zoom integration, email notifications and responsive support; the Company Secretary can now assemble and publish a board pack in about 30 minutes instead of a week-long effort by three secretaries, board communications are hosted securely, directors can join meetings from anywhere, and the group has reduced printing/shipping and extended OnBoard to committees and project work—significantly improving governance and saving staff time.
