- Service constraints
- The Digital Asset Manager requires a Microsoft 365 license and Power Platform environment. It supports modern browsers only and needs an active internet connection; offline access is unavailable. Performance depends on Dataverse capacity and API limits. Planned maintenance may cause short service interruptions, communicated in advance. Advanced customisations, third-party integrations, and extended support outside business hours may incur additional costs. Data residency follows Microsoft cloud regions, and high-volume environments may require premium capacity for optimal performance.

Users initiate the process through the administration portal or via API endpoints, ensuring flexibility for technical teams. For sensitive data, we follow strict protocols aligned with GDPR and Data Protection Act requirements, including encryption during transfer and confirmation of deletion post-export. If requested, we supply a written description of technical and organisational measures used during extraction. Our support team assists with planning and execution, and optional consultancy is available for complex migrations. No data is processed outside the agreed region without prior consent, and all transfers comply with regulatory standards. This approach guarantees that users can securely retrieve their information and transition to new systems without disruption.

- Accessibility standards
- WCAG 2.2 AA
- Accessibility testing
- Intelligent Decisioning conducts accessibility testing to ensure docCentrum meets WCAG 2.1 AA standards and PSBAR compliance. Testing includes user sessions with customers who have assistive technologies such as screen readers (JAWS, NVDA), keyboard-only navigation, and high-contrast modes. We validate that all interactive elements are operable without a mouse, content is perceivable, and navigation is logical for users relying on assistive tools. During UAT, selected participants tested workflows for mandatory reads, document search, and compliance tasks using screen readers and voice navigation. Issues identified—such as missing ARIA labels or inconsistent focus order—were remediated before release. Continuous improvement is embedded in our process, with periodic audits and feedback loops to maintain compatibility with evolving assistive technologies. This ensures inclusivity and usability for all users, regardless of ability.

Scaling
- Independence of resources
- Intelligent Decisioning ensures consistent performance by leveraging Microsoft 365’s elastic cloud architecture and Azure App Services, which automatically scale resources under load. Workflows run independently within Power Platform environments, preventing contention between users. Metadata-driven caching and throttled background tasks maintain responsiveness, while API rate limits and telemetry via Application Insights enable proactive monitoring. These measures guarantee that high demand from some users does not impact others, preserving compliance and document access across the organisation.

Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability
- Intelligent Decisioning guarantees high availability for Digital Asset Manager by leveraging Microsoft 365’s resilient cloud infrastructure. Our service targets 99.9% uptime, excluding scheduled maintenance and Microsoft platform outages. Availability is monitored continuously, and performance metrics are reported through the Admin Centre and Microsoft Service Health dashboards. Service Level Agreement (SLA): Availability Commitment: 99.9% monthly uptime. Scope: Includes access to Mercury Intranet features, workflows, and compliance tasks hosted within Microsoft 365. Exclusions: Planned maintenance windows and force majeure events. Refunds and Remedies: If availability falls below the guaranteed level, customers are eligible for service credits applied against future invoices. Credits are calculated proportionally to the downtime experienced and documented in the SLA terms. For retained consultancy packages, additional support time may be offered as compensation. Our approach combines Microsoft’s enterprise-grade redundancy with Intelligent Decisioning’s governance and monitoring, ensuring minimal disruption and transparent reporting for compliance and audit purposes.
- Approach to resilience
- Digital Asset Manager is built on Microsoft SharePoint and Azure, leveraging enterprise-grade resilience and redundancy. The service uses Microsoft’s globally distributed datacentres, which operate in active-active configurations across multiple geographic regions. Each data-centre includes redundant power, cooling, and network connectivity, ensuring high availability even during component failures. Data is replicated across multiple physical locations within the same region to maintain durability and continuity. SharePoint Online and Dataverse provide built-in replication and disaster recovery capabilities. Intelligent Decisioning applies governance and monitoring through Microsoft Service Health and Application Insights, enabling proactive detection and mitigation of issues. In the event of a regional outage, Microsoft’s failover mechanisms ensure continuity without user intervention. Combined with our SLA commitment of 99.9% uptime, this architecture guarantees resilience, scalability, and compliance for critical document control and governance processes.
- Outage reporting
- Digital Asset Manager reports outages through multiple channels to ensure transparency and timely communication. Service health is primarily monitored via Microsoft 365 Service Health Dashboard, which is publicly accessible to administrators through the Microsoft 365 admin centre. This dashboard provides real-time status updates, incident details, and resolution progress for all underlying Microsoft services, including SharePoint Online, Dataverse, and Azure components. For automation and integration, Microsoft offers a Service Communications API, enabling programmatic access to health data for custom dashboards or alerting systems. Intelligent Decisioning can configure this API for clients requiring automated notifications. Additionally, email alerts are sent to designated administrators when incidents occur, including outage details and estimated resolution times. Optional Teams notifications can also be configured for rapid internal communication. Combined, these mechanisms ensure customers are informed promptly and can take appropriate action during service disruptions.

Potential compromises are logged immediately and escalated under our ISO 27001-aligned Incident Response Policy. Critical incidents trigger immediate containment, eradication, and recovery actions, followed by root cause analysis and preventive measures. Response times are rapid—critical issues are addressed within hours, often starting mitigation within 60 minutes of detection. Regular audits, automated alerts, and documented procedures ensure resilience and compliance with UK Government security principles.
