We will never share your information, promise.
Let’s face it: tracking LGOIMA/FOI requests through spreadsheets and emails is a headache. When you’re managing multiple requests across departments with strict 20-day deadlines and GM/CEO sign-offs, you need more than just a process map – you need a system that works.
In this practical session, Will’s going to take a real LGOIMA process and show you exactly how to turn it into an automated workflow that:
- Tracks request status and ownership automatically
- Sends reminders when actions are due
- Makes collaboration between departments seamless
- Ensures compliance without constant manual checking
- Gives leadership clear visibility of progress
You’ll see firsthand how to transform your existing process map into a workflow that shoulders the administrative burden, giving your team the confidence to handle requests without fear of missing steps or deadlines.
