Platform · Runtime Workforce Governance

The runtime that governs the decision chain across your workforce systems

Your payroll, rostering, time, credentialing, and care systems each record their piece. Smartta checks the decisions flowing between them — pass, flag, or gate at the moment of decision — and records the evidence as work happens.

How the platform works

Connect systems. Run the rules. Record the decision.

Smartta does not ask you to replace your existing stack. It governs the decisions that cross the systems you already run — so workforce operations become visible, controllable, and provable.

Connect the systems you already use

Pull in signals from payroll, time and attendance, rostering, credentialing, care, and adjacent operational systems.

Connector Gateway →

Evaluate workforce decisions continuously

Expert-validated Domain Packs turn awards, policies, and credential rules into versioned, repeatable checks that run against every connected workforce event.

Policy Engine →

Create evidence as operations run

The Evidence Ledger records who made which decision, why, based on what data, under which policy, and with what outcome — assembled as work happens.

Why no single system can do this

One pay outcome. Five systems. Nobody holds the chain.

A single line on a pay run is assembled from six events across five systems — and each system only records its own piece.

Shift rostered · WFM Worker clocks in · Time Credential expiring · HRIS Public holiday rule · Award Manager override · Approvals Line on a pay run · Payroll
Was the credential valid at shift start? Was the overtime authorised? Was the override within authority? Did the public holiday rate apply? Was the rule version current? Can any of it be proven later?
Each system records its piece. Smartta records the decision chain between them — whether it was complete, compliant, explainable, and evidenced. Workforce systems record what happened. Smartta proves why it was allowed.

The decision boundary

Every governed decision returns one of three outcomes

Whether a decision is triggered by a person, a system, or an AI agent, it passes through the same deterministic boundary — never silent, always evidenced.

PASS Execute automatically. The decision satisfies the rules and data requirements. Evidence written.
FLAG Continue with review. The decision proceeds but is routed for attention, with the rule and remediation attached.
GATE Block until resolved. The decision stops until the required condition is met.

Category clarity

Four things Smartta is not

Not payroll

It doesn't calculate pay.

It validates the decision chain that feeds payroll — and records the proof.

Not rostering

It doesn't build schedules.

It checks roster decisions against rules, coverage, cost, and credentials — before they harden into pay outcomes.

Not middleware

It doesn't just move data.

Middleware delivers the message. Smartta validates the meaning — and its consequence.

Not GRC

It doesn't attest quarterly.

GRC documents that a control exists. Smartta runs the control every cycle and records the result.

Operational control

Move from reactive clean-up to continuous governance

Most workforce issues are discovered too late — after payroll runs, after service delivery shifts, or after review work begins. Smartta helps teams detect and act earlier, while operations are still in motion.

  • See mismatches, missing links, and policy failures across disconnected tools.
  • Replace ad hoc spreadsheets and manual reconciliation with governed workflows.
  • Give operators, leaders, and assurance teams one consistent operational picture.

Why it matters

Built for operators and assurance teams

The same infrastructure that helps teams run workforce operations correctly also helps reviewers inspect source events, policies, exceptions, and outcomes with far less reconstruction.

See it Detect gaps across systems — connected data, encoded rules, continuous checks.
Fix it Resolve exceptions early, with the rule and the remediation path attached.
Prove it Give auditors, advisors, and leaders the full decision chain — no reconstruction.
