In a recent survey on business and the cloud, 74% of respondents told surveyors that using

cloud computing gave them a competitive advantage.1 One of the main advantages that the

cloud provides is the ability to speed up internal processes and be more flexible with

changes in the market. In other words, the cloud enables better business agility.

Put simply, business agility

is the ability for businesses

to plan and execute

strategies simultaneously,

and to react quickly to

changes in market demand

and new business

opportunities.

Automating key internal

approvals, thereby reducing

the time it takes to initiate

new projects and approve

new strategies, is a key

aspect of business agility.

When businesses use frevvo to automate their internal approvals through a cloud-based

platform, they are able to simplify their internal operations considerably.

Instead of printing, signing, and scanning documents, cloud-based automated approval

workflows allow team members to read and sign important documents electronically, and

send them on to the next person with the click of a button.

With frevvo’s cloud-based

automated approvals,

employees can access

relevant documents anytime,

anywhere, and on any device.

This enables businesses to

increase the efficiency of their

internal operations, as well as

empower employees to make

the right decisions at the

right times.

Another benefit of automated approvals is that it opens up new opportunities for improved

collaboration and puts an end to time-consuming miscommunications. When every team

member can access the information they need at any time, projects get completed faster

and with more accuracy.

Automated approvals also provide

businesses with crucial data

regarding every step of their

internal workflow processes.

Businesses can then use this data

to identify and eliminate lags and

redundancies in their workflows

and interactions with customers,

allowing them to become more

efficient and responsive to

customer demands.

When businesses use automated

approvals to make their internal

operations simpler and more efficient,

they can then increase the number of

sales orders and customer interactions

that can be handled at any one time.

By improving their flexibility, businesses

can then expand the scope of their

operations—becoming more profitable.

In order to succeed in today’s rapidly changing marketplace, businesses need to be able

to respond with new products and initiatives before the opportunity to introduce them

successfully passes.

With the business agility that automated workflows provide, businesses can react to the

demands of their customers and the changing marketplace faster than ever before.

frevvo provides customers with cloud-based automated workflow solutions that let

them maximize their business agility, empowering them to become more successful

than ever before. Learn more at www.frevvo.com.
