Results
Since implementing and launching SharePoint and over twelve Nintex Workflows, Oxley almost immediately realized a return on their investment in SharePoint and Nintex technologies. The manual processes are now efficient, measurable workflows that have greatly reduced the time it takes to complete the process with the added benefit that they can be tracked while in progress. Because of this automation integrating with SharePoint communication capabilities, these processes are handled effectively and rapidly regardless of the users’ physical location, all but eliminating the communication bottlenecks.
Having developed historical analytical data on these processes, Oxley Group has been able to improve efficiency in their procurement, manufacturing, and shipping processes helping them to become more responsive to their global customer base.
Oxley’s adoption of Nintex Workflows and SharePoint document management has replaced several expensive and labor intensive line-of-business systems with an easy-to-use web based intranet accessible by all users within the organization, reducing their infrastructure support requirements and licensing costs.
