Trust your instincts! If it seems like a waste of time- it probably is!

Trust your instincts!

It amazes me how often we don't trust our own instincts when it comes to our business processes.

We create a process - knowing full well that certain parts of that process are mind-numbing, painful and inefficient. Maybe it is manual data entry- this data must get into my software program! Or maybe it is a process of sending an employee file diving for that one piece of paper that might have that sticky note you need. These are a fact of everyday business life - agreed - but there is a reason why they feel wrong.

WRONG? Yes - just think about the ways that we try to overcompensate for these "pains". If your not the delegating type- you just do them yourself and work longer hours - if you assign them to employees, you allow them to take "shifts" to alleviate the potential of them passing out of boredom or just walking out. Perhaps you find an intern or retiree to take over this work, but in any case, you know that this isn't the most efficient use of your company resources.

What is the solution?
Trust your instincts.
There is a better way

Enterprise Content Management (ECM) could be the solution. If you have a process that is largely transactional, paper-based or involves data entry, ECM software might be the answer to getting past the   "there has to be a better way" thought that often crosses your your mind.
