Why do organisations require an Enterprise DCMS Solution

Background

It has been seen that from 1985 onwards the number of documents created in an organization has been doubling in 5 years and by 1994 onwards the documents creation was been doubling in every 9 months. It is also estimated that quite a prominent fraction of an organization’s resources are spent creating, managing, and distributing documents, and that 60% of people’s time is spent working with documents.

In the last decade the world has experienced a serious research and effort solving issue of the unorganized data. People have come up with numerous Document Management solutions addressing issues from their own perspective. As the result it is common today to find within an enterprise several different systems, variously called document management, information management, records management, workflow management, or COLD (computer output to laser disk). Corporate Management experienced quite a few limitations with these systems.

  • These systems typically cannot communicate with each other, creating separate “islands of information”.

  • While there are many factors that contribute to TCO, a key concern is that the Document Management solutions are not flexible enough to grow with you, and address not only the compliance issues of today, but also those of the future.

  • The corporate heavily relies on integrated content and process management. The solutions available in the market never address both the issues together but tend to offer solutions for both aspects separately.

Why do a corporate need a proper Document Management Solution from business prospective

  • Limited scalability: The entire system was constrained in terms of people, transaction and query handling and expansion of its network, while handling the product applications at the branch.

  • Highly skilled labour required for processing of applications: As the product experts handled the entire processing at the branches the dependency on them was considerably high.

  • Difficult to expand the network of branches: The need to have skilled labour at the branches made it difficult to open new branches with ease.  

  • Increasing volume of queries: As few experts and officers were handling both applications and queries the burden on them was increasing with increasing volume of applications.  

  • Inability to monitor and track the application efficiently: For trade finance applications being handled centrally it was difficult to track the application status from the regional branch. 

  • People Productivity: For trade finance applications like letter of credit (LC) issuance being handled centrally it was difficult to map the people, their work, their productivity and the quality of delivery.  

  • Inability to Control and identify bottlenecks in the process: When the trade finance application was sent to the central site the process could not be could not be monitored on a wider scale and the problems arising at various stages could not be identified and rectified quickly.  

  • Poor customer service: The services provided to the customer were poor because of  

  • High turnaround time: For trade finance application processing at central site.  

  • High Response time: For handling customer queries  

  • High costs: Incurred for tracking the status of customer applications through telephone calls and mails in case a customer queried a different branch or the trade finance application was being processed centrally.
