Six Features That Make
Borealis Stand Out.

It’s true that our community engagement software shares some features with other platforms, like Consultation Manager. But companies across the world have chosen Borealis for its unique features that make it stand out from other SRM.

1.

Outlook and Gmail integration

Record all emails and stakeholder contact info in Borealis straight from Outlook or Gmail with just a click. It’s easy. Keep your Outlook or Gmail messages organised in a centralised location. Import important information to Borealis without leaving your email environment. There’s no need to switch back and forth between your email and our software.

2.

Detailed mapping capabilities

GIS capacities that go beyond putting pins on a map and that help you identify quickly who you need to contact based on their location. Import shape files to determine areas of impact, link stakeholders to parcel and document commitments with landowners. Go even further by managing land access payments right from the system.

3.

One stop solution for CSR needs

Go beyond traditional stakeholder engagement. Our solution lets you work at scale by allowing you to manage other areas of corporate social responsibility, like social investments, agreement negociation and compensation payments, complaint and issue management, and compliance with regulations.

4.

Powerful Analytics tools

There’s no need to export your data to external tools to get the complete picture. With Analytics’ extensive reporting capacity, you can report on anything and create professional reports in seconds and export them in PDF. You’ll be able to keep a closer eye on KPIs, such as number of interactions with a specific community, average resolution time for grievances, type of engagements, and spot changes in real-time.

5.

Continuous improvements

“Stakeholder engagement is worthless if it’s not properly documented. Since using Boréalis, things have been much more organized and it’s far easier for me to keep track of what my teams in the field are actually doing.”

Jay Martin - External Affairs Manager at PanAust

"We’re now able to hold public involvement up to clear metrics. Instead of just reporting anecdotal success rates, we can easily present decision makers with clear figures backed with detailed records.''

The Modern Alternative to Consultation Manager.

What makes us different from competitors like Consultation Manager? Well, our fit-for-purpose solution helps you make better decisions by providing professional tools often unavailable in stakeholder management.

Operationalise your engagement plan

Our software features a project management tool specifically designed for stakeholder engagement teams. Determine your project assets and objectives, and delegate team members to manage stakeholders, engagement activities, and follow-ups. Monitor trends in real-time to keep your progress on track.

Google Maps API integration

View the geographic location of stakeholders on a map based on their addresses. Both regular maps and Google Earth views are available. The API integration also includes the same form auto-complete you find in Google Maps.

Manage stakeholder’s multiple positions

Different teams typically engage with people based on the individual’s position within an organization. And sometime, a same stakeholder might wear many different hats. Borealis makes it easy to manage multiple positions for an individual, while ensuring that all interactions are linked – not only to the individual – but to the organization they represent in that position.

No hidden costs

We make pricing clear right from the start. You know precisely what you are getting—an unlimited number of stakeholders, communications, and projects.

Suitable for a wide range of industries

Yes, our Borealis’ fit-for-purpose solution is effective for organisations in the oil and gas and mining industry, but it benefits many companies. We have assisted numerous teams in implementing our software in industries ranging from transportation to governments, from consumer goods to renewable energy.

Highly secured connection

We support several authentication protocols, including SAML single login and single logout and LDAP, MFA, and SCIM protocols. Organisations using the mobile application can implement Intune to control access to the app.
