Virtually every firm can benefit from a more automated business process management strategy, as well as the digitization of workflows and other aspects of accounting and information handling, for a range of reasons. With these benefits extending from fewer expenditures and a far more streamlined experience for employees to modernized information sharing capabilities and beyond, the time to begin digitizing document management and moving away from paper filing is now.
Fierce Content Management recently published a blog post by Francis Dion regarding his opinions on the assessment of paperless office investments’ worthiness for each company, and he pointed out that relatively simple internal analysis will reveal the need and value of such projects. According to the author, one study from TechNavio found that digital document management investments are expected to be 14 percent higher in 2019 than they are today.
Now, it is important to note here that some of the more transformative digital trends to have surfaced in the past few years have seen highly volatile adoption rates and have been tricky to predict accurately as a result. This includes mobile payments, which many analysts believed would lead to the cashless society within the next decade or so, but those forecasts have simply not panned out in reality thus far.
This is important to remember because it clearly shows that technologies which will transform enterprise operations, shopping experiences and the like should be approached with care and patience. However, Dion asserted that companies will be able to intelligently manage paperless projects by ensuring that the customer is being considered every step of the way, collaboration among various leaders and departments is high and experiences are assessed consistently throughout the duration of the overhauls.
The paperless office will generally be characterized by the introduction of solutions that digitize, automate and streamline core transactions, business processes, workflows and more. Each of these defining matters should not be viewed as an option at this stage in the game, as the drivers of competition in every industry are increasingly dictated by the successful completion of digital transformation projects.
Rather than waiting too long and watching others in the market excel in terms of financial and operational performances, business leaders ought to be putting the legwork in to become less reliant upon paper and use digital technologies more progressively. The top priority in this regard should be the introduction of digital document management solutions and more advanced workflows.
Automated workflows empower your team to focus on larger, more complex initiatives without having to think about small processes.
Many organizations start with manual receipt handling, fragmented card feeds and slow AP processes. Implement AI agents to auto-capture receipts, route approvals, enable punch-out buys and post to the ERP.
Result: faster batching, fewer errors and cost savings. “This saves us hours every month.”
Many organizations face slow, paper-heavy AP and fragmented procurement that waste time and inflate costs. AI Agents can automate approvals, PO matching and record sync to improve speed, accuracy and control. Client quote: “It freed up hours and made our process reliable.”
Operational drag and rising costs slow growth: teams waste time on manual tasks, misaligned priorities and opaque processes. AI Agents help automate routine work and coordinate actions across teams. “We’ve lost time to repeats and handoffs,” says a typical client.
Companies struggle with manual procurement, fragmented approvals, and costly integrations that slow growth and obscure spend. Our AI Agents streamline requisitions, POs, and invoice matching to cut manual work and improve visibility. “We were wasting time and missing insights,” says a client.
Many teams start with fragmented PO/AP systems, manual matching and delayed financial reporting. Deploying AI agents to automate PO checks, real-time encumbrance tracking and invoice matching reduces processing time and errors, delivering live budgets and faster closes. “Finally, we can see current balances and approve instantly.”
Many companies juggle growing invoice volumes and legacy systems. They struggle with manual processes, compliance gaps and limited headcount. Our AI Agents automate integrations, enforce rules and surface exceptions. The typical outcome: faster closes and measurable ROI. “We stopped chasing invoices.”
