Kyocera Document Solutions Europe study reveals the importance of clear workflow definition

Streamlining workflows is the first step on the path to profitability.

Disjointed processes cost professionals both time and money. Paperwork in the workplace is easily mislaid, communication paths are unclear, or projects are left in limbo with no clear direction. “Digital solutions can add structure and control to workflows, making them simpler to manage and dramatically enhancing productivity, with knock-on effects on profitability”, explained Michael Powell, Expert Software Product Management at Kyocera Document Solutions Europe.

What’s more, efficient workflow management allows businesses to prepare for growth. As organisations grow and develop, their operations spread across a bigger team, or possibly across various teams or departments that might be located in different cities or countries. In order to communicate adequately and ensure that workflows continue to flow smoothly, technology such as Content Services is essential.

Yet, despite the clear advantages, Kyocera’s white paper reveals that only 22% of enterprises are familiar with the term ‘Content Services’. It is evident that many companies have much to learn about how they can tweak the way they organise their operations to increase productivity and profits.

“We strive to help companies to optimise their processes so that they truly can put knowledge to work and that journey begins with the clear definition of workflows,” Powell continued.

“Solutions like Enterprise Content Management and Content Services can provide the ideal way to make this journey a simple one. Such technology enables companies to automate their processes and remove some of the most common workplace headaches,” he added.
