Bring external expertise into your legislative workflow—securely, seamlessly, and at scale.
When a bill drops that could significantly impact your organization, you need insights from the people who live and breathe the details—tax experts, scientists, operations leads, and outside counsel. But, collecting their feedback usually means email chains, pasted bill text, and half‑updated spreadsheets that grind decisions to a halt.
Today, that changes.
Quorum Collaborator, a new add‑on for Quorum Federal and State customers, lets you invite external stakeholders into your policy process, without needing full licenses or exposing sensitive data. With Collaborator, your partners see exactly the bills you assign, add structured comments in seconds, and keep every insight captured inside Quorum.
How Quorum Collaborator Powers Faster Policy Wins
Legislative strategy doesn’t stop at your org chart. Yet traditional licensing models force teams to choose between high‑cost seats or clunky workarounds. That gap slows reviews, scatters knowledge, and puts policy wins at risk.
Collaborator fixes that by giving outside experts lightweight, limited access to just the bills you share, nothing more, nothing less—so you can:
1. Streamline collaboration beyond your Government Affairs team
Replace scattered email threads with a single, shareable sheet. Assign bills, collect structured input, and watch insights roll back into Quorum automatically—no copy‑paste required.
2. Fast‑track policy wins
With lightweight access built for busy experts, feedback arrives in hours, not days. Your team adapts and creates unified, data-driven strategies to address amendments, deadlines, and committee changes before opportunities close.
3. Work securely with external stakeholders
Collaborators see only official bill data through permission-based views. Policy stance, relationship notes, and reporting stay private, so you can loop in partners with peace of mind.
What external partners can (and can’t) do to ensure you are in control
| ✅ They can | ❌ They can’t |
| View a curated bill list in an external sheet | Access any other Quorum data |
| Log in to see a limited bill profile (official data only) | See comments from other reviewers |
| Submit a one‑click comment that flows to Notes & Sheets | Undermine version integrity by editing comments |
Use cases across your organization
