Digitization with
GEDYS IntraWare Workflow
Kienle and Spiess ensure uniform workflows throughout Europe with the establishment of the GEDYS IntraWare CRM system. Processes and applications are transparent and accessible to all parties involved.
In the past, the approval of applications in the company was realized via Excel forms, which were sent by in-house mail and fax to the responsible approval offices. This outdated method did not allow the respective applications to be tracked. In addition, it was not possible to understand at what stage calculations were made, who had last changed or processed them – information that is decisive for a smooth and timely process. That’s why Kienle and Spiess decided to introduce our CRM software.

Solution
GEDYS IntraWare CRM
Well organized:
more transparency for processes at Kienle and Spiess
by establishing the GEDYS IntraWare workflow solution
With the establishment of the GEDYS IntraWare workflow solution, these processes became transparent and the status of the requests, as well as the person currently processing them, can now be seen at any time.
Excel forms have been integrated. Changes to these forms are automatically logged within requests. The complex approval structure of the requests is controlled by the GEDYS IntraWare workflow.
For the requests, it is specified which offices must be passed through, depending on the type of request. Therefore, the respective responsible persons are stored in the Organization database in job profiles such as “Approver Controlling”, “Management”, etc., in order to ensure an easy assignment of the applications.
Administrative users also have the option of manually intervening in the workflow if both the respective responsible persons and any representatives are not reachable and the application would therefore remain in one place for too long.
With the individual solution we created, Kienle + Spiess was able to significantly optimize and digitize the complex approval control of the various investment applications. This new workflow guarantees a uniform approach – in Germany as well as in Hungary and the UK.
