The flood of paper and information, legal regulations to increase transparency, and the urgent need to access stored knowledge quickly and securely at any time are making electronic document archiving a high priority. This form of archiving makes it easy to handle and distribute information within the company.
Comprehensive solutions can increase efficiency and speed throughout information management for energy companies. The large number of documents and digital data, such as connection to/disconnection from the power supply, meter reading cards, or bills, contain masses of information. This applies from the capture of information to research, to the provision of the required documents. Permissions can be taken into account and provision is possible worldwide via the internet.

How we can help you
softgate offers digitization solutions from a single source: Whether it’s a case of the centralized or decentralized capture of potentially paper-based documents (such as delivery notes or orders) or digital information (emails, product information) – all information carriers are captured and channeled. The powerful capture software extracts the relevant data and transfers it to the specialized applications used (e.g., SAP). This means that all information is available to every stakeholder in a matter of seconds. Orders for time-critical raw materials and products can be processed at company headquarters just as easily as delivery notes in local branches.
