A/P Processes and Governance: The Building Blocks for Compliance and Productivity Warren D’Avirro – Sales Director David Hutt – Solution Engineer
Why Automate? • It is clear that outdated manual information retention, disposition, and compliance functions must be automated. Capturing, extracting and managing critical content from multiple sources is crucial in today’s and tomorrow’s business environment. • Document Management automation software helps organizations set and manage information governance policies around extraction for business decision making.
Building Blocks for Compliance & Productivity • Reduce Risk • Be Prepared • Audit Trail • Retention
Reduce Risk and Regulatory Compliance Anxiety • Create rules to govern storage, retrieval, distribution and destruction of all your digital documents. • Be able to generate reports showing where documents are in their life cycle and what documents are eligible for retention, transfer or destruction. • Document Management automation assists in governance and promotes regulatory compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, SEC and other regulations.
Be Prepared • Litigation preparedness is an essential part of doing business today. Maintaining compliance with records retention requirements is a top priority in any industry but can be very difficult to implement and manage. • The goal is to develop a records management strategy that will maintain compliance, adhere to retention and disposition requirements, litigation and preparedness policies. • A bonus is having a system that allows you to override the retention policy and freeze/unfreeze specific documents.
Audit Trail • The right automation solution creates a detailed audit trail. It could be years before a problem comes up and its traditionally been difficult to recreate exactly what happened. When you have all of the information right in the system, you can just go back and access it just like it was a court room report. • Imagine being able to look back and show what was done, why it was done and by whom. It could be something very simple but to have that information scanned in, and to be able to produce it on demand, could go a long way to fighting a suit or adhering to compliance mandates.
