Shoosmiths, a UK-based law firm, was grappling with a fragmented workflow environment. The firm had been using workflow automation for over 15 years, during which it deployed 13 separate workflow technologies and solutions. The firm had implemented Microsoft SharePoint to centralize document management across its 11 offices and had also implemented SAP as its practice management and financial systems solution. Despite these implementations, the firm was still facing challenges with its workflow management. The firm recognized the benefits of having a single workflow platform integrated with SAP and SharePoint, which would allow them to move all their existing workflows onto one platform and use it as the basis for future workflow development within the business.
