GESI's Streamlined Environmental Compliance.pdf

Global Environmental Solutions, Inc. (GESI), a U.S.-based consulting firm, streamlined its Air Services Department's workflow using ProcessMaker. GESI's core business involves incorporating environmental compliance restrictions into clients' planning, reducing their business risk. ProcessMaker addressed several pain points:

1. Redundant Analysis: Experts previously conducted identical analyses on similar products, consuming valuable resources.
2. Inefficient Data Transcription: Manual data transfer from research documents to official documents was time-consuming.

ProcessMaker implemented a Chemical Information Analysis Process, automating case initiation from email data, gathering relevant information, conducting preliminary analysis, and securely controlling access to confidential results. Key results included:

- Increased Information Security: GESI gained direct control over document access and alterations.
- Increased Transparency: Workflow progress tracking and reporting helped identify and address bottlenecks.
- Decreased Case Time: Automation of case initiation, tasks, and report creation reduced processing time.
- Decreased Human Error: Automatic report generation minimized errors.

The project also integrated KnowledgeTree's document management system, providing additional access control, versioning, searching, and other features. The workflow was implemented in 5 months, benefiting over 10 end-users. ProcessMaker, downloaded over 750,000 times, has a network of 35+ partners across 5 continents.
