Process automation has become a pivotal activity within digital transformation programs. Yet, 70% of these programs don’t reach their stated goals. One significant reason for this, is poor information management. In this blog, I’d like to discuss why many organizations are struggling to properly match content – both metadata and unstructured content – to their processes.

That is perhaps the most disturbing finding of the AIIM State of Intelligent Information Management 2022 survey – especially when those same executives placed the ability to execute business processes ‘nimbly and on-demand’ as the second most important ingredient in digital transformation success. Years of working with customers have shown us at KineMatik that effective information management solutions are required for successful process automation. Yet a wide and troubling gap still exists between business and information strategies for many organizations. I’d like to suggest a simple and practical way to close it. 

Organizations’ business requirements are getting more and more complex when it comes to software features. Organizations want software to meet their exact requirements no matter how specific. IT Departments are looking to reduce the cost of software by standardizing on software and software configuration. The more complex the requirements, the more difficult it is to find an off the shelf solution. Often, to meet these business requirements, software must be configured or customized, in other words using custom code!

 Many enterprises are making the move from manual to electronic data collection. Are you ready to benefit from improved research data management?

Organisations spend a lot of time configuring Content Server from folder structures and metadata to reports and forms. Form templates are easy to create, but creating a professional-looking function HTML Form View can take a lot of work in design, development, review and repeating. The cycle time of the review from asking for changes and seeing the changes slows down the entire deployment time. KineMatik Form Builder for OpenText Content Suite enables any user to configure Form Views including:

• Defining form sections
• Adding, removing & arranging form attributes
• Form field validation and dependent actions
• Configuring form buttons with various library actions
• Enabling form view sidebar widgets e.g. attachments, comments and timelines.
• Configure form popup windows 

During this webinar, see how the new features can be used to build new form views and edit existing views. See how easy it is to make changes on the fly to speed up the review and edit process.

We all understand the importance of an Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system. An ECM helps to keep track of all organization information in a centralized location, helps regulatory compliance, can increase productivity, deal with auditing and versioning and speed up the business process. However, an ECM is typically a platform that needs configuration.

An ECM is an investment and initially, in particular, a large monetary and resource outlay. Stakeholders expect an organization to optimize the use of the company ECM and gain value as fast as possible. This value can only be realized after it has been configured and comes from users having access to the configured ECM and its content. That means access to documents and other data. Longer term value can be derived from other business process applications and integration to other line of business systems, like SAP or Salesforce.

I’ve been working with a Top 100 Telecoms organization on their cloud strategy so I was interested to see PwCs findings on the Top 25 Fastest growing cloud companies.* I thought it was a great overview of what can make a cloud partnership successful.
