Runs in your browser. No data sent to any server. Part of the Universal Document™ ecosystem.
How UD Policy Publisher differs from SharePoint and PolicyStat
SharePoint stores policies as files with no structural enforcement. PolicyStat requires subscription and IT setup. UD Policy Publisher creates a self-contained, verifiable policy record instantly.
SharePoint / intranet document library
Policies stored as Word or PDF files. Version history relies on SharePoint's own metadata — not embedded in the document. If the file is downloaded and shared, version and review date information is lost.
PolicyStat / MedTrainer
Healthcare-specific policy management platforms. Require subscription, implementation, and training. More than most organisations need for creating a single structured policy document.
UD Policy Publisher — review date in structured metadata
Mandatory review date is a structured field inside the .uds — not a word in a paragraph. UD Reader surfaces "review due" immediately on open. Policies can be filtered by review date without a database.
UD Policy Publisher — version and owner embedded
Policy version number, approving authority, and owner are part of the document's sealed metadata. Anyone who receives the file can verify who published it, when, and whether it's been modified since.
