FormKiQ's Correspondence Management solution provides the document layer for organizations where correspondence is a formal business record — capturing incoming communications, routing them to the appropriate team or individual, tracking response obligations and deadlines, and maintaining an auditable record of both the incoming correspondence and the response.
What Correspondence Management covers
Manage formal inbound and outbound correspondence with structured intake, routing, response tracking, and complete audit of communications from receipt through resolution.
- Structured intake across multiple channels — email, portal, physical capture — with classification and routing on arrival
- Metadata schemas for classification by correspondent, subject matter, priority, and regulatory category
- Response workflow automation with routing and escalation based on correspondence type and response deadline requirements
- Deadline tracking and escalation to ensure response obligations are managed proactively
- Complete audit of both the incoming correspondence and all response documentation
- Document Generation integration for consistent, governed outbound correspondence output
Correspondence record model
The guide frames formal correspondence as a managed record with intake source, sender, subject, priority, response obligation, assigned owner, response documents, and audit history.
Formal intake channels
Capture correspondence from email, portals, physical mail, scanners, APIs, and other enterprise systems.
Response metadata
Track correspondent, subject, category, priority, deadline, assigned team, status, and regulatory or policy driver.
Inbound and outbound record
Keep the original correspondence, internal review notes, generated response, approvals, and supporting documents in one governed record.
Deadline evidence
Maintain audit history for receipt, routing, review, response generation, approval, dispatch, and escalation events.
