Document Management Software
Organised, Accessible, Effortless
Make your documents work harder by connecting them to key modules like Risk Registers, Controls & Policies, and Incidents. This ensures the right teams have access to the right information, exactly when they need it.
The entire Document Management Module can be adapted to match your structure, processes, and terminology. From permissions and layouts to approval paths and integrations, it’s all in your control.
Symbiant’s optional AI Assistant enhances your due diligence process by automatically linking relevant risks, controls, and findings across your system. It suggests improvements, highlights potential gaps, and ensures your records are complete, consistent, and audit-ready.

Symbiant’s AI-Powered Assistant is fully GDPR-compliant and built to protect your privacy. It does not collect or store your data. Instead, it creates a temporary cache folder to fulfil each query and immediately deletes the information once the task is complete.
Your data always stays securely within your environment, giving you full control and peace of mind while benefiting from AI assisted insights.
Complete Control, From Draft to Audit Trail
Symbiant’s Document Management Module helps you manage and review all your business documents with precision and control.
Each document begins as a draft and must be approved before it can be published. Once published, any user can submit a change request. These requests can be accepted or declined and may then form the basis of a new document revision — enabling full team collaboration while preserving structure and control.
The module enforces a clear document lifecycle:
Draft → Approval → Published → Change Request → New Draft
This built-in logic ensures consistency and auditability across the entire workflow.
To protect document integrity, users with view-only access can only see the most recently approved and published version. This secure layer keeps unapproved drafts hidden while ensuring transparency for official documents.
Inside each document record, you can create reviews with a selected purpose and assign actions to specific users. Tasks can be given due dates, and the system automatically sends out notifications and reminders to keep everything on track.
Reviews and actions are linked to the overall record, not just a specific revision, making them consistent across document updates. This creates a clear, centralised audit trail and makes it easy to review the full history of what’s been done and why.
You can view all review entries and actions in one place, giving you full visibility and accountability across the document lifecycle.
