MultiCIM - Process Automation

		Process Automation

	Decisions cannot be better than the information used to make them. MultiCIM offers you simple and efficient means to collect and manage your data entered on paper or electronically.
	From Manual to Electronic Data Collection
	MultiCIM has partnered with Cardiff Software, the world leader in forms related data-collection, to propose TELEform to Canadian companies. Cardiff has more than 20,000 products sold in 40 countries and currently commands 75% of market share for this class of data-collection technology. Some key benefits that can be derived from TELEform are as follows: Drastically reduce the cost of data-collection from forms. Reduce the turnaround time for processing forms. Provide a coexistence or smooth transition for data capture between paper and electronic forms. Cardiff TeleForm™ Information Capture system is used to automate the processing of forms and documents. It replaces manual data entry with the automated processing of forms and documents. TeleForm extracts data from paper and converts it into online information for database, XML and content management systems, and allows organizations to apply business rules to clean and verify incoming information. TeleForm can be extended to automate the processing of Internet and email forms with the HTML+Forms and PDF+Forms add-on products, and to implement form merge applications with the AutoMerge Publisher add-on solution. Cardiff LiquidOffice™ eForm Management System is a powerful Web-based solution for creating, deploying and automatically managing the routing, tracking and approval processes for electronic forms. For more details refer to: http://www.cardiff.com/products/liquidoffice/index.html MultiCIM has had great success in applying TeleForm technology in very diverse sectors: refer to the story on how this solution was implemented at Christina Canada. For more specific information on TeleForm's features and benefits that your organization can take advantage of, contact MultiCIM.
	Bar Codes: Reliable and Easy
	Bar Codes facilitate data collection in that they are the most reliable and cost-effective physical medium for data. They are widely used in all industries predominately in retail, transportation and manufacturing. The bar code has become the de-facto standard especially for tracking-related applications. In high volume applications bar code labels are generated using heavy duty thermal transfer printers; however for low volume your typical office printer suffices. Label Matrix software, a world-class bar code design/print software, supports all types of printers. Generating a custom bar code label has never been simpler thanks to the easy to use MS Windows-based Label Matrix software. It is extremely flexible allowing one to create the most demanding labels without any potential frustration. Most importantly once a label has been designed MultiCIM is able to create custom programming to interface with Label Matrix and initiate the dynamic auto-generation of labels using your existing database or your specific criteria. The scanning devices used to read bar codes are varied and are easily interfaced to legacy systems. Over the years MultiCIM has built extensive expertise in implementing systems which take advantage of bar code reading peripherals and hand-held bar code terminals. Therefore we can help you with everything including producing labels, collecting the data and finally exploiting the data to it's fullest by offering the precise visibility required to make timely decisions.
