Case Study: Tulare County Sheriff's Office achieves rapid countywide document processing — 5,000 documents in one year — with Adobe Acrobat Sign

Tulare County Sheriff ’s Office processes 5,000 documents across a large region with Adobe Sign

Tulare County Sheriff’s Office, serving more than 400,000 residents across 4,863 square miles with 1,300 staff and volunteers at 21 locations, struggled to exchange documents and secure multiple signatures across dispersed offices. Manual processes—email, fax, scanning, and couriers—made it hard to track status, caused delays on HR and business approvals, and hindered county-wide communications.

By adopting Adobe Sign (Adobe Document Cloud), the department automated routing, tracking, reminders, and alternate signatory flows, and enabled easy form generation via widgets. The office processed more than 5,000 HR and business contracts in just over a year, achieved sub‑minute turnaround for many documents, eliminated most paper handling, improved visibility and accountability, and rolled the solution out across departments to boost efficiency and reduce costs.
