3 key benefits of electronic legal transactions
Speeding up processes
Companies usually have very well supported internal processes with their IS in ERP, CRM, SCM, HR, DMS or office and other applications.
However, at the point when somewhere in the middle of the process a legally binding approval from the environment - customers, suppliers, partners, employees - is needed, we are still in the last millennium. We print, we sign with a pen, we mail.
A key benefit of electronic legal transactions is the speeding up of the associated processes, as everything can be done significantly faster in electronic form and often almost "without the touch of a human hand".
Cost reduction
There is a "devilish" side to administration costs. They are not directly visible anywhere. There is no extra column for them in the income statement. They remain hidden in the efficiency and indirect cost headings. But if you take a moment to try to calculate them, you will find that they are definitely not insignificant.
- Costs associated with inefficiency - People often do things a certain way because "that's the way it's done". Those who can break free from this and start doing things differently can gain a competitive advantage based on their greater efficiency.
- Opportunity Costs Lost - What if people in sales, HR, or the business department, etc. did higher value-added activities? What would be the effect on the revenue side of your company's income statement?
You are reducing Signi costs that otherwise often remain hidden and omitted.
Environmental impact - ESG
Take us with a grain of salt, we are a bit biased ;-). But using paper in the 21st century for everyday operations is, in our opinion, an environmental crime or at least nonsense.
- How many millions of trees have to be cut down ... and also grown, often in "fields on the ground" instead of in their natural habitat?
- How many millions of tons of paper have to be produced ... and not, despite all efforts, in an environmentally friendly way?
- How many millions of tons have to be distributed ... mostly by fossil fuel cars?
- How many millions of tons of paper must be stored ... in production, in shops, in archives, i.e. in spaces that are lit, heated, often built on the surface of former fields or meadows?
- How many millions of tonnes of paper must be recycled ... unnecessarily, because the most environmentally friendly product is the unmanufactured product.
Of course, the operation of computers is by no means without environmental effects. But it can be many times more efficient than paper hell.
How do you estimate the environmental impact of computerizing legal proceedings at your firm? Simple. Number of trees saved = number of electronically signed documents * greenness quotient. We will be happy to work with ESG specialists to calculate what this means specifically for your organization, including the necessary methodology and verified supporting documents.
