Electronic Forms and The Paperless Office

When we talk about business process automation and improving office efficiency, one particular factor that has come to the forefront in terms of taking things to the next level is electronic forms (E-forms). While environmental issues and physical paper costs are certainly important, E-forms have so much more to offer. Managing physical paper files is a sure-fire way to rack up unnecessary costs within your organization, especially when considering the manual labors of printing, processing, and filing those forms. So if paper is what’s slowing you down, why not eliminate it entirely from certain areas? Many organizations grasp the concept of E-forms, but there still exists a resistance to get away from paper. Why? Well there are many misconceptions that companies have as well. Whether they be in regards to customization, costs, or compliance, we’re here to fill you in as to why adopting E-forms is one of the biggest steps your organization can take in developing cost-effective automated business processes. One of our big partners in this area is Access Formatta. Formatta has been a leader in E-forms for over a dozen years now, allowing customers to effortlessly capture, manage, and exchange data across business systems. Below is a brief overview that may get a few ideas popping for how your organization could benefit from adding this powerful software.

The ability to create and customize electronic forms is one of the leading factors in bringing more people to adopt them into their organization. Building these forms so that companies are still able to acquire specific information, while also personalizing them has been huge. Every organization, in one way or another, deals with such documents on a daily basis – often times in high volume – to distribute, collect, and manage critical information and data. Whether its HR forms when hiring new employees, administration forms for students at universities, healthcare forms for physician references, or any other scenario where critical data is being submitted, E-forms have the power to take that information, integrate it with your business systems, and really put it to work.

With E-forms, we are able to eliminate the need to create a paper file, and also are able to automate business processes that oftentimes are held up by manual data entry. Eliminating or reducing manual processes is a major focus of ours as it is frequently an area where our customers recognize significant benefits. Whether we do this through E-forms, advanced capture, or other methods, process automation is where you should be focused.
