ALM Octane & General Data Protection Regulation: A new approach to manage GDPR assessments and projects!

Ever tried to manage GDPR assessments or projects with large spreadsheets and dozens of documents? Collaborated with various stakeholders and consolidated their inputs? Created macros and templates to boil down the results in management reports and dashboards? Sent them around every week just to find out they were outdated a few hours later? And don’t even ask for auditing – “Who decided this is not relevant about a year ago?” “How can we ensure we did not miss anything?” “What did we discuss regarding this article?” – Spreadsheets, really?

ALM Octane makes it much easier to work with the GDPR: You can easily collaborate with stakeholders, search & filter for specific terms, use dashboards & analytics to measure and manage progress. It automatically creates audit trails so you can validate and explain how you analyzed and implemented GDPR requirements in your organization. ALM Octane contains task, feature & project management capabilities and many more very useful functionalities out of the box.

ALM Octane with the GDPR Content Pack supports various processes around GDPR and can be used by consulting firms and end users – yet is not a GDPR gap analyzes or contains an advisory methodology. You can use and even enhance the GDPR Content Pack free of charge – not only for importing GDPR into ALM Octane, but any regulation, specification or bulk data: It is an example how you can import data from Microsoft Excel into ALM Octane with VBA and the Octane REST API. It is designed to work with ALM Octane on premise and Software as a Service.
