Cottage industry: vendors of corporate secretarial software and services

These vendors offer software systems that help with all aspects of corporate entity management (See my post of Aug. 9, 2006 on these and board member packages.). The software packages manage corporate minute books, assemble various corporate documents, generate reports about subsidiaries and officers, support document management systems, and craft corporate hierarchy charts. Some also offer capabilities in records management, insider tracking and reporting, as well as securities management.

Some of the vendors’ software offerings include Secretariat (by Bridgeway); EnGlobe (by Corporatek); and and Global Corporate Manager (by Datacare).
