Reduce Costs with Esker DeliveryWare
A wide range of paper-based communication costs, such as those for manual delivery of invoices and account statements, can be immediately reduced or eliminated by implementing Esker DeliveryWare.
| The rapid return on investment provided by Esker DeliveryWare can be directly measured through the wide range of cost reductions: |
|
Cut labor costs
Labor costs involved in manually processing documents can be reduced significantly. A typical traditional document delivery process involves manually printing and folding documents, inserting into envelopes, applying postage, and deliver into the appropriate location for mailing. All of this time-consuming and wasteful manual work can be eliminated, allowing staff to do more valuable and cost-effective work.
Reduce consumable costs
The cost of supplies such as ink, paper, and envelopes can be significantly reduced - with the bonus that the reduction in consumables usage is an environmentally friendly benefit of Esker DeliveryWare. Nucleus Research has found that “implementing document management solutions reduced paper and printing costs by up to 98%”. Read Analyst Report
Use cheaper electronic document delivery
Electronic delivery is less expensive than postage or courier services. Often, there is no corresponding increase in costs elsewhere in an organization because the existing information technology infrastructure has sufficient capacity to handle the extra outbound traffic. Manual delivery costs can be eliminated immediately.
Reduce costs due to document delivery errors
Like all computerized business processes, automating document delivery significantly reduces the number of human errors. Errors in paper based transactions are typically difficult, time-consuming, and costly to correct. Archiving all documents sent to customers means that any errors can be quickly verified and corrected.
“Esker DeliveryWare Platform helps us put critical shipping documents in the right hands at the right time” according to Clarita Davey, Manager of Systems Administration, South Carolina State Ports Authority.
Eliminate ERP customization costs
Esker DeliveryWare can be used to modify and transform documents as part of the delivery process (for example, changing format or corporate logo). Documents can be modified to suit the format expected by ERP applications. This means that the ERP application code does not need to be modified or customized, which can be time consuming and costly. In addition, Esker DeliveryWare’s intuitive graphical user interface means that IT departments do not have to be involved in routine changes such as new document layouts. Document changes can be made in minutes without programming skills.
Reduce infrastructure overheads
Esker DeliveryWare enables all applications to have easy access to all devices for faxing, printing, and Mail on Demand services, which means that departments can share devices and distribute costs. See Simplify IT Infrastructure for more information.
Reduce costs due to non-delivery
It is common for paper-based communication to fail to arrive at the correct destination. Automated document delivery can significantly reduce the amount of document non-delivery.
Esker DeliveryWare also offers an option for receipt confirmation, which provides delivery assurance and is cheaper than registered mail.
