The Problem
proprietary and confidential
Key Issues 1. Document Appearance. Do your business documents require a certain look that reflects on
your brand, corporate culture, and or the needs of the recipient?
2. Document Distribution/Routing of Info. Are there people in your organization who spend a lot of time manually faxing documents? Collating documents? Re-keying information to build bar-code labels? Building or attaching document sets? What are the soft costs associated with these “sneaker-netting” tasks?
3. Satisfying Strategic Partner Requests. Is your IT organization able to satisfy the requests of key clients and vendors who need custom business documents formatted and delivered differently from a single batch?
4. Web Presentment. Does the low overhead and ROI of delivering information and documents via the Web appeal to you and your organization?
5. Transactions. How would it help your organization if a paper-process, was truly a spring-board toward e-commerce and more cost effective, digital transactions (XML, EFT)?
