Annemarie Pucher
Chief Executive Officer
Papyrus Software
I love sharing the latest and most exciting information about technology, product and corporate news with our many customers and prospects all over the world. Read my recent e-mails below and subscribe to receive my personal e-mail updates:
DocuFlow 2023 Award Winner
It gives me great pleasure to share with you that Papyrus DocuFlow has been awarded the ‘Application of the Year 2023 Award’ by Xplor International. This honorable mention from the Xplor award committee is founded on DocuFlow’s innovative approach of empowering organizations to swiftly transition their paper and PDF forms to web forms.
Innovation Business Process Management
We are at a crossroads of technology in the evolution of business process management. Let me explain: Not everyone is aware that the majority of process executions require leaving the documented 'happy path' of a process for completion. Performers should not need to leave the process environment to perform unexpected work or simply to communicate.
Solutions, Concepts & Strategies for IT Modernization
You are considering migrating and consolidating disparate legacy document systems to eliminate inefficiencies and reduce the effort in managing templates for multiple channels. Or you want to learn more about technologies such as Blockchain for e-signing and verifying digital assets, and how to efficiently automate your business processes and incoming mail?
Turning Conversations Into Business Transactions
Sending requests per email with attachments is a type of asynchronous collaboration that we are most familiar with. Attachments can be many and include filled PDF forms, documents and signatures. However, this form of communication is highly manual and poses a major challenge for organizations.
Profitable Investment. Not just spending.
When our company was founded in 1988, we saw it as our responsibility to ensure that software was a profitable investment for our customers, and not just an expense. Documents are at the heart of our customers' business; if our customers cannot deliver an invoice or a contract, there is no business!
Technology of the Year Award
This year's Technology of the Year Honorable Mention that awards original concepts and developments leading to a significant advancement in the Customer Communication Management industry, goes to Papyrus Software for its innovative Papyrus Business Designer software.
Blockchain - The much broader Range of Use
Since my last letter to you about Blockchain - the better way to e-sign, enquiries about this technology and the Papyrus Blockchain ecosystem have skyrocketed. Most often I was asked why should a company use Blockchain to sign and verify digital assets when electronic signature solutions already exist?
Blockchain - The Better Way to E-Sign
When it comes to digital documents and electronic signatures, it is blockchain technology that eliminates concerns about manipulated or even forged electronic documents. Blockchain is known to make the e-signing process very secure and stable avoiding costly external e-sign services.
Deploy the 'adapt to win' strategy
How does a company continue to innovate? In recent years, companies have had to quickly adapt in order to win. Digitalization has been a focus, self-service has become much more dominant and ad-hoc changes that were perhaps patched on the front-end side need to be replaced with better solutions.
Fit-for-Future Document Migration Strategies
How can you consolidate disparate existing document systems which have grown over years, leading to redundancies, inefficiencies, and multiple efforts to maintain document templates for different output channels? A question I get asked very often.
Orchestration through powerful integration
Often, and usually out of expediency, companies tend to implement multiple communication platforms within core applications without understanding that they need to be either consolidated or interconnected. This is where the use of a middleware platform that enables multiple ways of communication between two or more applications on a distributed network can greatly help.
Food for thought - Why a document strategy?
Organizations have been investing in business document design solutions for decades. In fact, many organizations have invested in more than one document design and formatting system. But this is a double-edged sword. These disparate technologies may be addressing specific features, but they also hinder organizations achieving a seamless, connected customer experience and rarely meet the much needed efficiency, productivity and effectiveness.
Content is Pervasive
Are you sometimes missing that one piece of information related to your task that would make it easy? Are your employees hunting for data and switching from app to app to accomplish their work? If so, read on – this message is for you. Knowledge, content and document management play crucial roles in core business processes.
Unleash Your Creativity
Creativity is a great way to solve problems, innovate new solutions and bring purpose to work. We have access to tools and a real opportunity to contribute and create change. Creativity always works better than anything else we could try. This is a call to make a difference – difference in terms of the product and service quality, in terms of speed of innovation, as well as in terms of the customer and employee experience.
Papyrus Business Designer in Action
You no longer need to be a programmer to deliver Business Value Streams, but use a graphical user interface instead of writing code. This takes the pressure off the IT department, as even non-technical users without programming skills can contribute.Technology enables and facilitates creation, it is not a barrier to entry.
Get strategic with orchestration decisions
In the wake of rapid digitization, some companies often implement quick-win point solutions in their ecosystem that end up being complex puzzles. The challenge of getting everyone to work together effectively skyrockets. What sets you apart as a tech leader today from traditional companies is the act of business orchestration, the delivery of a positive business experience that results from the customer experience and the employee experience.

Your invitation to the Open House 2021

As digital transformation continues, personalized customer communications and the processing capabilities - whether digital or physical, automated or interactive, on-premise or in the cloud - are evolving in terms of documents and workflows to efficiently and securely process omni-channel communications at scale.
Mastering document design across applications and channels
Whether you’re designing personalized business documents for high volume or real time interactive generation, or migrating and adopting existing documents for digital and physical delivery, powerful and non-technical designer tools for document creators are a key to time to market.
Streamline contract creation and closing process

Building Better Digital Business Solutions: Your 3 Essential Mindsets
Digital transformation requires us to look at how we work today and asks the question, how we might work tomorrow? Are you making the most of your digital business applications and communication channels? Forrester Consulting conducted a survey of 216 decision-makers responsible for business process automation/optimization and digitization in global organizations across Europe and the USA.
New Year Brings New Opp
2020 was a challRAWing year however we continue to have much to celebrate. With digital transformation taking hold of the industry, customer RAWagement solutions - whether from request to closure, processing a loan, a claim or an order - are evolving at an even quicker rate.
Move Your Business Correspondence to the Web
You can bring your letter applications closer to the business and to the Web! Business document design tools enable organizations to meet their objectives in a timely and cost-effective manner without relying on technical knowhow in IT.
Excellence in Output Management Across All Channels
A new enterprise-wide focus on improving customer experience has pushed organizations to move from a single channel to multi-channel to omni-channel Communications, responding to customer preferences across physical and digital touchpoints.
From Request to Closure
Digital application routes are essential to new customer business. Whether a loan, credit, policy, business account or leasing contract - customers benefit from fast, seamless processes without media breaks or manual processes, completely without paper.

Think in Value Streams to improve efficiency, customer experience
Thinking in terms of Value Streams improves customer experience, allowing organizations to visualize the end-to-end work, see evidence of actual performance and identify opportunities for process improvement.
A Central Hub for all Business Communications
A digital communication platform brings maximum value when used as a central hub. Spanning across physical and digital it drives customer experience with support for high-volume output, interactive communication and real-time digital messages with feedback loop.
The push toward RPA and consolidating a scattered landscape
At the recent Gartner Symposium, attendees wanted to know how Papyrus Software is different (better) than other solutions providing automation in digital transformation (RPA/AI) and collaboration beyond a disconnected landscape of communication channels.
Ready for a modern CRM-landscape?
A scattered landscape of too many communication tools, fragmented ownership and too many document templates with high complexity are often key barriers to enable successful customer RAWagement. The digital transformation roadmap must span across print and digital, offering customer interactions by chat, SMS, mobile, social and links in emails.
Collaborative Content Services - A better way to work
The challRAWe for many organizations is that their legacy ECM systems were implemented with a focus on documents. In an Omni-channel world, many digital communication channels and their business processes generate content and information to be managed and made available to the CRM, ERP and HR departments and their users.
Multi-channel automatic payment collection process prevents shortage on cash flow
The realization of E-invoicing/E-billing and a streamlined collection process is key to good cash flow for any organization. Your billing and collection cycles can accelerate by having business teams to create, approve and deliver a personalized, modern omni-channel bill design with targeted messages from one easy-to-use, end-to-end integrated digital platform.
Efficient and cost-effective workflow for mission critical documents
The personalized business document is a key to successful customer RAWagement. Papyrus Business Designer allows users to handle change requests directly in a fast and managed way, significantly increasing efficiency and reducing timelines for production processes.
Making Technology Work
Digital business transformation is a key initiative for many organizations. Agility, a well-defined plan and a powerful digital software platform supporting RPA and AI make it possible to create a new business model that offers omni-channel RAWagement, enhanced customer experience and streamlined operations.
Salesforce Order Processing Boosted by Papyrus
Integrating Papyrus CCM capabilities with the order and sales processing in Salesforce results in significantly lower manual labor and reduced human error. Dexcom, a US Healthcare manufacturer with an international presence in Germany, deployed the Papyrus intelligent multi-channel Inbound Mail Capture technology successfully in both locations, enhancing customer experience and saving on manual labor cost.
Successful collaboration of Business and IT
One of the largest financial players in the world is achieving significant results by putting Business First with the Papyrus CCM solution. Business users can create and maintain a huge amount of document templates in a flexible manner, with consistency in design and compliance of content.
Let Business take ownership of mission critical documents
Business documents are mission critical and sit at the heart of your applications. Much too often IT is RAWaged in time-intensive document services that are considered a technical job. Such service can take too long, be too expensive and are inflexible. Often IT does not have the resources, and the work must be outsourced.
Blockchain enabled Papyrus enterprise content management services
In a recent report on Content Services Platforms by Forrester Research, Papyrus was referenced as a collaborative and transactional content services platform. Our digital ECM platform represents the next stage of evolution, with a focus on modularity and simplified integration, and is delivered as one source, and not assembled via acquired technologies.

Machine Learning
Training machines to recognize documents and messages and to continuously optimize data capture is a remarkable technology to increase efficiency. But what really improves business capability is a process solution that also learns over time what your experts actually do in a case when a certain document arrives or a particular state is recognized - or when an exception is encountered.
