Case Study: Tulane University improves document processes with Xerox DocuShare

Tulane University saves $80K and automates document processes with Xerox

Tulane University faced a significant challenge in optimizing its document processes in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. The university needed its employees to spend less time managing information daily. To address this, Tulane partnered with Xerox Corporation and implemented the Xerox DocuShare solution to digitize and automate key departments.

Xerox implemented a solution that digitized and automated workflows for the Accounts Payable and Academic Advising departments. The results were substantial, including an estimated $80,000 in savings compared to the previous solution. Accounts Payable now scans and archives 1,500 to 2,000 document sets weekly, with 60% of form processing expected to be automated within two years. Academic Advising will digitize between 600,000 and 1,000,000 pages, allowing advisors to spend less time on information management and more time fostering student relationships.
