With KMU Base, the workplace becomes a driver of efficiency

Why doinefficient structures cost companies thousands of francs every year?

IT is now acentral component of every business. In today’s world, documents, processes and communication are all handled digitally. Yet in many organisations, the picture is quite different: IT is driving up costs without delivering the expected added value. The cause rarely lies in the technology it self. Rather, the decisive factor is how it is used in day-to-day operations.

 

An often underestimated reality:

An average employee spends around 30 minutes a day searching for documents and information. What goes largely unnoticed in day-to-day work adds up to aconsiderable amount of time over the course of a year.

 Over 120 hours per year are spent per employee solely on document searches.

 

The business perspective

Even a single company with around 20 employees loses a considerable amount annually due to inefficient information searches. The time spent searching every day alone quickly adds up to tens of thousands of Swiss francs per year – typically ranging from over 70,000 to well over 100,000 Swiss francs annually – simply to locate information and documents in the first place. And that is just one single, often underestimated factor affecting efficiency in day-to-day work.

 

Where do these costs arise?

  • In many companies, IT systems have grown over the years.
  • Different systems for different tasks.
  • Documents stored in multiple locations.
  • Processes lacking a consistent structure.
  • Data being entered multiple times.

 

Structure rather than complexity

This isprecisely where BWO Systems AG comes in, offering a structured approach to digital transformation. With KMU Base, key business areas such as documentmanagement, finance and invoicing processes, internal communication and the digital working environment are consolidated into a single integrated platform. Information is centrally available and follows a uniform structure. KMU Base gives SMEs access to professional digital processes that are otherwise often only found in enterprise solutions – frequently due to high investment costs or complex IT structures. This creates a solid foundation for efficient and sustainable working.
