Reduce Paper to Deliver Quick ROI

Replacing time-consuming paper-based processes can result in substantial time and cost savings and deliver a quick ROI -- which is what a west coast construction materials company recently experienced.

In a normal month of shipping and delivery activity, the company was generating up to 20,000 weight tickets. With such a large monthly volume, the company had outgrown its labor intensive process for accessing, storing and sorting the weight tickets. In the past, to respond to customer requests for signed delivery tickets, the accounting staff would need to search through files of paper originals to locate the requested ticket -- assuming it was filed in the proper place to begin with.

The company selected EMC ApplicationXtender, an affordable, easy to implement, automated document management solution that allowed the company to electronically capture the weight tickets and store them in a centralized repository, enabling easy access and instant retrieval. In addition to the weight tickets, the company is now scanning in up to 100,000 accounts payable documents per month into the ApplicationXtender repository.

According to the company's IT Manager, implementing ApplicationXtender has "changed the way we do business by integrating and streamlining our accounting processes and by enhancing our project managers' ability to execute multiple projects at once."
