Smartsheet - OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine Integration and Automation

Common Integration Use Cases Between Smartsheet and OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine

1. Contract and policy review workflow

Data flow: OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine ? Smartsheet

Legal, compliance, or procurement teams can use OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine to analyze large volumes of contracts, policies, or regulatory documents and extract key entities such as obligations, renewal dates, risk clauses, and exceptions. The extracted findings are then pushed into Smartsheet to create a structured review tracker with owners, due dates, and status. This gives business teams a clear action list instead of forcing them to manually review long documents.

Business value: Faster document review cycles, improved compliance visibility, and reduced manual effort in tracking obligations and exceptions.

2. Risk issue intake and remediation tracking

Data flow: OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine ? Smartsheet

Risk and audit teams can feed incident reports, audit narratives, investigation notes, or third-party assessments into OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine to identify recurring themes, control gaps, and high-risk topics. Those insights can automatically populate Smartsheet rows for remediation plans, assigning corrective actions to business owners and tracking completion across departments.

Business value: Better prioritization of remediation work, consistent issue tracking, and improved accountability across risk, compliance, and operations teams.

3. Customer complaint and case trend management

5. Investigation case management and evidence tracking

Data flow: OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine ? Smartsheet

Internal audit, fraud, security, or HR investigation teams can use OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine to review witness statements, case notes, and supporting documents to identify named entities, relationships, and suspicious patterns. Smartsheet can then serve as the operational case tracker, storing investigation milestones, evidence requests, reviewer assignments, and closure approvals.

Business value: More structured investigations, better chain-of-work visibility, and reduced risk of missed follow-up actions.

6. Regulatory change management

Data flow: OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine ? Smartsheet

Compliance teams can monitor new regulations, guidance documents, and enforcement actions using OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine to extract impacted topics, obligations, and deadlines. Smartsheet can then be used to create a regulatory change register, assign impacted business units, and track policy updates, control changes, and implementation status.

Business value: Faster response to regulatory changes, clearer ownership of compliance tasks, and improved audit readiness.

7. Operational feedback analysis for continuous improvement

Data flow: OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine ? Smartsheet

Operations teams can analyze free-text feedback from post-project reviews, employee surveys, incident reports, or vendor evaluations in OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine to uncover recurring issues and improvement opportunities. Smartsheet can then organize the resulting action items, assign process owners, and track progress on corrective initiatives.

Business value: Better use of qualitative feedback, stronger continuous improvement programs, and more disciplined follow-through on operational changes.

8. Bi-directional governance for document-driven work

Data flow: Smartsheet ? OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine

Smartsheet can act as the work management layer for document-heavy processes, while OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine provides the text analytics layer. For example, Smartsheet can store review requests, document links, and approval status, then send documents to OpenText Magellan Text Mining Engine for analysis. The extracted entities, topics, and risk indicators can be returned to Smartsheet to update workflow status, trigger escalations, or route work to the right team.

Business value: End-to-end process automation, better governance over unstructured information, and a single operational view for cross-functional teams.
