Target Operating States  The core lines of business have established an overarching objective to remove all unnecessary paper from business operations by 2014 …with significant progress made by 2011 Emergent Automation Capability Ground work for enabling the business with document driven straight through processing completed by 2011 Full Paper Removal Capability Departmental capabilities and solution models developed by 2011 and being deployed under a co-ordinated plan across all areas of the business (this includes the delivery of all scanning & indexing services and a document enabled CAMLite The strategic goal will not be achieved by simply applying technology to the operations we have today; this would merely automate bad practice and shift the problem.

12. Enterprise Content Management: Potential Benefits  The benefits of the ECM solution for DWP fall into five main categories ­Improved Security of Data as a result of no longer needing to generate and move around the country large quantities of paperwork containing sensitive personal information ­Improved Customer Service due to quicker and more efficient processes. This will also give rise to additional efficiency benefits (e.g. unnecessary progress- chasing calls are avoided) ­Direct Financial Benefits arising from savings on the contracts for the movement, storage and retrieval of paper documents. ­Enabled Efficiency Benefits arising as a result of more efficient paperless processes being introduced into BDCs and elsewhere. Gartner research shows that organisations typically achieve 20% to 40% efficiency improvements when a complete ECM solution is delivered. For the DWP, even a 10% efficiency improvement in the paper-intensive processes would result in a significant saving. ­Reduced Carbon footprint as a result of the reduction in paper documentation and the need to move it around the country 12345
