Operational Impact
The system has been particularly helpful for compiling all the extensive documentation that must be provided to a customer for each product manufactured. For this purpose, a workflow has been set up that starts as soon as a delivery slip for a finished product is printed out. As soon as an employee has checked and approved the file assembled by the workflow, it is automatically sent to the customer by email. In this way, the documentation is already on hand at a customer’s when the goods arrive with the delivery slip. | |
About 80 percent of the work in the documentation department is now automated. | |
At the end of 2020, after about two years of using DocuWare, around five million documents had already been stored in their archive. Many require very long retention periods - 50 years for turbines, for example – which are easily met. | |
