Case Study: a leading engineering company saves $250,000 and speeds report turnaround with DocuSign Signature Appliance

Electronic Signatures Generate Giant Savings and Accelerate Responsiveness for Leading Engineering Company

A leading engineering company specializing in forensic analysis faced a significant challenge in obtaining signatures on its reports from its geographically dispersed engineers. The paper-based process of couriering documents was slow, costly, and took up to three weeks, delaying critical client deliverables. They turned to DocuSign to find an electronic signature solution that would be compliant with professional engineering regulations and accelerate their workflow.

DocuSign implemented its Signature Appliance solution, enabling engineers to securely and compliantly sign and seal documents electronically from anywhere. The results were substantial, saving the company $250,000 in hard costs in the first year alone while dramatically accelerating report turnaround to just minutes. The solution was quickly adopted by engineers and later by other departments, and it also led to increased client satisfaction and business growth for the customer.
