Use Cases
Omnichannel Customer Communications
Organizations implement Quadient's Inspire platform to transform their customer communications strategy. The solution centralizes document design and content management, enabling business users to create personalized communications without IT dependency. The platform manages the entire communication lifecycle from creation through approval, production, and distribution across multiple channels (print, email, SMS, web, mobile). Intelligent delivery rules automatically select the optimal channel based on customer preferences, document type, and regulatory requirements. The system maintains a comprehensive archive of all communications for compliance and customer service purposes. This approach improves customer satisfaction through consistent, personalized communications, reduces costs by optimizing channel usage and consolidating systems, accelerates time-to-market for new communications, and ensures regulatory compliance through centralized control of content and formatting across all documents.
Accounts Receivable Document Automation
Finance departments utilize Quadient's document automation solutions to streamline accounts receivable processes. The system automates the creation, delivery, and processing of invoices and payment-related documents across multiple channels. For outbound communications, the solution generates personalized invoices incorporating customer-specific information, payment terms, and promotional content. For inbound processing, the technology captures payment information from various sources (checks, remittance advice, electronic payments) and automatically reconciles it with outstanding invoices. Integration with financial systems enables straight-through processing while maintaining a complete audit trail for compliance purposes. This implementation reduces days sales outstanding (DSO) by accelerating invoice delivery and payment processing, improves cash flow visibility through real-time payment status updates, enhances customer satisfaction through accurate, professional invoices and payment options, and reduces processing costs through automation of manual tasks.
