Manufacturing: Increasing workflow efficiency in manufacturing

The Background

Success in the manufacturing sector hinges on constantly becoming more efficient with the use of valuable resources. A large suburban Chicago food manufacturer recently decided that they wanted to use the same methodology for efficiency that had made them successful in the production process and apply it to their document workflow. The company faced redundancies in handling documents that cost them time and money.

The Solution

Working with Martin Whalen Office Solutions, the company was able to get to the root of the problem. Staff were making copies of essential paperwork, faxes, and orders and hand delivering them throughout their large facility. Martin Whalen was able to provide a customized solution that had all of the faxes delivered electronically while paper documents were able to be scanned and sent via e-mail.
