Objectifs

  • Enable centralized filing and access to all case documents
  • Provide deadline and date monitoring in certain cases
  • Optimize process workflows
  • Avoid media disruptions: less manual data transferal
  • Implement paper-free case processing with purely digital documents (CI) and paper documents (NCI)

Solutions

  • Modern electronic ECM system for managing eRecords in departments

  • Workflow management to represent business processes
  • Electronic contract management

Fiche signalétique du projet

Starting point

The leaders of Stadtwerke Schwäbisch Gemünd gave their departments the strategic goal of creating a paper- free future and thereby digitizing processes and documents. Special emphasis was placed on document- centric processes that involve multiple departments. The documents in these processes were originally compiled and exchanged according to organizational agreements and the file server structure. In daily work, however, this proved difficult to implement — especially when it came to cross- departmental processes. Furthermore, a lot of information was still only on paper. This made documents hard to access. Many duplicates were circulating among employees from various departments and areas to give them quick information access. For these reasons, the company wanted to launch ECM to create a modern electronic system with an audit-proof archive to manage departmental eRecords and workflows that represent processes — all to support daily work and optimize procedures.
