Floyd Automatic Tooling case study

Analysis

The heavy burden of having to keep documentation on file for seven years was taking its toll on the amount of office space available. A mezzanine was dedicated to filing and information retrieved was increasingly slow. This costly exercise could only escalate as the volume of paper documents rose.

In addition, the prospect of HMRC audit loomed large. Floyd Automatic is required to retain input materials paperwork for its European suppliers and it must also be in a position to make these readily available to HMRC. With resources critical, this situation was simply not tenable. Speed and ease of information retrieval were driving factors behind the decision to investigate a document management solution.

It was clear that Invu could meet our requirements to retrieve documents instantly, and to store this information through a very familiar interface.
