Automating document centric processes to accelerate success
Documents are the lifeblood of business—but as many organizational leaders know, each and every document comes at a cost. According to IDC’s The High Cost of Finding Information – 2001 Study, it is estimated that document-related administrative tasks such as locating and inputting data, managing templates, controlling versions, redlining, and chasing internal approvals and customer signatures account for as much as 20% of a knowledge worker’s time.
Manual methods of creating documents profoundly impacting revenue and productivity
These document-centric problems transcend departments including marketing, service, legal, finance, HR, and sales. Mission-critical documents like NDAs, quotes, proposals, and contracts are most often built manually.
This time-consuming process requires workers to ensure data sources like Salesforce are up-to-date and accurate, locate and manage templates, swivel-chair between systems, cut-and-paste data, fact check for errors and omissions, and more. Once documents are created, manually routing documents for internal reviews—and to customers for approval and sign-off adds additional time and complexity.
Just within a single department such as sales, this labor-intensive, productivity-draining approach:
- Distracts reps from their core mission of identifying, nurturing, and closing deals
- Lengthens sales cycles
- Significantly increases the likelihood of errors
- Results in less-than-optimal customer experiences
- Negatively influences revenue
And let’s not forget while documents may start within an organization, quite often they need to get into the hands of customers, partners, and suppliers. This magnifies the importance of making sure they are delivered on time and with a high degree of accuracy.
