The Benefits of Automating Forms Processing

According to statistics compiled by the Association for Information and Image Management, forms are the dominant way of doing business: over 80% of all business documents are forms, and an average of more than $60 billion is spent printing paper forms annually, with more than $360 billion spent processing forms annually.

Surprisingly, many businesses still rely on an antiquated method of harvesting information from forms: manual processing. But with increased competition and the demand for instant information, the business that manually processes forms now faces a critical choice: automation or obsolescence.

And there is no better solution for automation than Captiva'sFormWare®, a universal forms processing platform that automatically identifies and processes both paper and electronic forms, regardless of their design or point of origin.

Since 1989, Captiva’s award-winning products have been used to extract and perfect information from forms and documents. Most recently, FormWare won Transform Magazine’s 2003 Readers’ Choice Awards for forms processing.

FormWare is currently used to process millions of forms and documents every day-one of America’s largest business process outsourcing firms, SOURCECORP, uses FormWare to process more than 3 million pages a day!

Whether you are processing insurance claims, invoices, credit applications, or customer orders, and whether they are paper, electronic or faxes, FormWare will speed overall processing times, reduce overhead costs and improve data accuracy.
