A
common goal for both large and small businesses alike is growth
--- a common concern? Productivity. The need to grow without
increasing personnel makes each and every employee's role that
much more valuable to an organization. Do more with less is
the mantra in today's businesses.
Time management, skilled labor and well-managed communication
are the cornerstones of workforce productivity, but people and
processes are what drive the workforce efficiencies. An organization
has to operate like a finely-tuned instrument, with every job
and process aligned in order to achieve optimal results. Even
the smallest amount of lost time searching for documents, reinventing
a process, or seeking out the right person for a task can cause
an organization to miss deadlines or opportunities that can
become very costly in the long run.
Whether it is a job order, marketing event or engineering project,
a great number of people, departments, documents and processes
may be involved. Technology might be considered a silver bullet
to increasing productivity, but companies cannot afford a lengthy
implementation, negligible advantages, or a prolonged learning
curve. Any solution that addresses productivity must handle
data from across the enterprise, align with all business processes,
and be flexible enough to respond to strategic, operational
and financial goals.
Specific considerations and demands need to be taken into account
when addressing productivity through technology:
- Interoperability / Integration: Being able to tie together
data from multiple applications -- from job control systems
to HR applications to ERP software -- ensures streamlined
processes and control of data.
- Accountability: Every project, process and order must
have a traceable history with a means of measuring goals
and results, including personnel, customer and vendor actions.
- Compliance: In order to stay compliant, technologies must
document and manage activities as well as assist with audits
and handle non-compliances accordingly.
Exact Software understands that every employee and process must
be empowered with the right business tools in order to realize
their total worth and potential. But those tools must be available
and have enough flexibility in order to provide timely and accurate
information, as well as produce the right metrics and measurements
that answer business questions.
To afford the people needed to conduct operations at their most
efficient, employees need to more accountable, informed and
compliant. With technology that focuses on processes and people,
a productivity deficit can be turned into a productivity empowerment.
