Case Study: Innogy achieves faster onboarding, cost savings, and improved experiences with Adobe Sign (Adobe)

Innogy achieves high returns by using Adobe Sign to boost productivity and improve experiences

Innogy, an RWE AG company delivering renewable energy, needed to modernize HR processes in the UK to improve candidate and employee experiences, reduce paperwork errors and delays, and support its sustainability goals. The HR team faced slow, paper-based signing that could take up to two weeks and wanted a faster, greener, more accurate way to handle onboarding, promotions, and internal moves.

By implementing Adobe Sign, Innogy digitized contract and onboarding workflows so documents arrive by email and can be signed in minutes (as fast as five minutes), processing about 425 contracts a month. The change eliminated printing and postage costs, cut daily document-prep time by roughly 10%, improved tracking and accuracy, and delivered measurable environmental savings (monthly reductions in water, waste, and wood), while driving broader adoption across the business.
