Keep Your Projects Moving Forward...

Let your employees take the day off -- without compromising your business processes. 

Imagine this scenario: a customer calls your office to ask a question about her account. You put her on hold so you can go to the filing cabinet to retrieve her file, but it's not there...it's not anywhere. 

What you don't know is that the customer's information is sitting on an employee's desk, under a few other files that are in the middle of being processed. Unfortunately, that employee is on vacation for the next five days. 

This scenario isn't unfamiliar for most businesses. Neither are the concepts of procrastination, lack of consistency, and uncertainty. So, how's a manager supposed to eliminate employee inefficiencies, automate decision making, and improve productivity? Enterprise content management--with electronic workflow and business process management (BPM)--addresses these needs.  

The article, Don't Put It Off Any Longer:  End Workplace Procrastination NOW with BPM describes how BPM and workflow can help managers to:                                                                                   

• Make sure work is done in order, by the right person, and on time.

• Distribute work to employees appropriately, along with task lists and tips to help them succeed.

• Ensure expectations are met and customers are treated consistently.

• Assess incoming work, approaching deadlines, and employee productivity easily.

• Assign and adjust assignments based on role, skill, work load, or absenteeism.

The reference piece further explains that, "...electronic workflow gives authorized workers real-time insight, informing them where each issue or process stands at any point in time. Digital trails document 'history in the making,' noting what happened, who did it, and when, simplifying managerial analysis..."

The bottom line:

Everyone deserves a vacation to get away from the office from time to time. But, wouldn't it be nice if work could continue as usual while your employees are away? ECM is about so much more than eliminating the paper from your office. With BPM and electronic workflow, you can keep important business processes moving in the right direction whether your employees go away on vacation or just need a little help prioritizing their work.
