There’s a better than good chance when you think about all the documents your company generates, the thought of a document factory doesn’t immediately register. That being said, when it comes to your company’s document production, it all comes down to that area.
In the digital age, the document factory has become automated. This not only makes it easier for companies to produce high-volume documents, it also frees up your employees to work on other things. Still, you might be asking what is an automated document factory? Let’s find out.

No matter your industry – insurance, banking, utilities, etc. – your company at some point goes through the process of generating batch documents. However, if your batch documents process isn’t fully optimized, your customers could be missing out. What’s more, your company could be needlessly throwing away money.
Each month, your company generates millions upon millions of documents. Monthly statements, customer letters, invoices, the list goes on. Document generation is important to the overall success of your company.

Creating high volumes of compliant customer-facing documents can be challenging in a regulation-heavy, fast-paced, customer-centric world. That’s what makes CRM document generation so important. With the right Customer Relationship Management software, organizations in different industries are finding ways to capitalize on their investment, time, and customer satisfaction.
The issue of customer data raises a challenge that CRM systems exist to address. Every time someone picks up the phone and talks to a customer, goes out to meet a new sales prospect, or follows up a promising lead, they learn something new and potentially valuable. Traditionally, all this data went into analogue or unconnected media such as notebooks or laptops, or even just stayed in people’s heads.

Document automation or document assembly? The terms are interchangeable, right? Most people believe that, yes, the two mean the same thing. However, one cannot be substituted for the other. In fact, document automation and document assembly mean two completely different things.
To put it simply, document assembly is one of several steps that make up document automation. This includes both automated document assembly and online document assembly.

It should come as no surprise to you that your customers are in the driver’s seat of change. If they want something quicker and faster, your company needs to find a way to meet their needs. Otherwise, your customers will look for another company. This is why automated document generation trends are important.
Learning the latest in automated document generation trends means your business is trying its best to keep up with the ever-changing times. It also means your company is doing what’s best for its customers. After all, landing a new customer costs anywhere between five and 25 times more than retaining existing customers.

All companies face challenges. It might be a simple fix, or one that requires outside help. The last thing your company needs, if it prints a ton of documents, are dynamic document production challenges.
If a challenge does pop up – and, let’s be honest, there’s a good chance it will at some point – it’s important to have the right software and support team in place. This is due largely because many document automation systems won’t allow you to do what your company requires.
Why is all this important? The last thing you need is an extended period of downtime while everything gets worked out. According to analyst firm Aberdeen Research, 82 percent of companies have experienced unplanned downtime over the past three years. That unplanned downtime can cost a company as much as $260,000 an hour.

Believe it or not, it’s not a trick question. Document automation is simply the act of automating documents. Simple, right? Well, there’s a little more to it, but that is the gist. The question you should be asking right now is ‘How can using document automation save my company money?’
Take a moment to think about all the documents your company creates each day. How about each month? Each year? It adds up, doesn’t it? Each document contains information either about your customer or for your customer – or both. The content on those documents (invoices, marketing material, etc.) has to be added somehow.
There’s a strong chance, if you’re reading this, that the information is added manually, meaning someone – or even multiple people – who work for your company spend their time and effort typing in numbers, addresses, figures, and more. With document automation, your employees can spend their time doing other work instead of wasting it with manual data entry.
