The Navy Warfare Development Command (NWDC) oversees the Navy Doctrine Library System (NDLS), which manages all updates and reviews of Navy doctrine. Faced with an outdated, labor-intensive review process, NWDC sought a solution that would streamline NDLS operations, reduce inefficiencies, and enhance collaboration.

NDLS’s outdated review process was slowing them down.
- Multiple manual steps were required for uploading Word documents, wasting time.
- Feedback gathering relied on long email chains and incompatible formats.
- NDLS needed a solution to streamline collaboration and improve stakeholder engagement.
Finding the right solution
NDLS selected Ideagen PleaseReview for its ability to:
- Enable simultaneous document reviews, drastically improving efficiency
- Allow real-time feedback, fostering open collaboration and transparency.
- Provide full version control with a comprehensive record of comments and changes, reducing errors from manual edits.
Implementation and impact
After implementing Ideagen PleaseReview, NDLS quickly saw improvements.
- Uploading documents now takes under five minutes, eliminating formatting delays.
- Real-time collaboration allows reviewers to give feedback instantly, speeding up the process.
- The review timeline was cut from up to six weeks to just one to three weeks.
The workflow is simpler and real-time. Our goal was to make the document review process faster for the warfighter, and PleaseReview has done exactly that.
