Community College moves to BPM

In a recent article by Fox Business, they reported that Edmonds Community College, in Washington state, is transforming to a BPM system to manage their processes. They believe that by automating the business process, they will improve the efficiency of the administration and improve employee activity

The new system they’ve adopted, Liquid Office, will help create, deploy, route, approve and manage many digital documents a year. The current system for management of documents is primarily done with paper.

Here is what Victor Portolese, manager, Application Development Services at Edmonds Community College, had to say about their transition:

"Previously, all of our administrative information was managed using paper-based processes that were labor intensive and prone to error. We required a solution that would reduce the time and costs associated with the management of forms while also integrating easily with our existing system framework. The LiquidOffice solution provides us with out-of-the-box robust capabilities that can be rapidly tailored and deployed by our staff with little to no programming. With Autonomy Cardiff, we will be able to automate and streamline our HR-related business processes that have historically been paper based, helping to decrease the time it takes to process our digital forms, while increasing our employees' productivity.”
