ReportNOW as Digital Transformation Platform to Improve Resource Management Efficiency
As a centralized and systematic platform, ReportNOW helps not only different departments and teams from Karin Group to manage information and data, but also the management to make timely and proper decision and planning. In Hong Kong, most of the enterprises including both large enterprises and SMEs utilize Microsoft Excel as the major spreadsheet tool to record data and process information. However, thanks to Karin Group’ growth of business size and scale, there has been a rapid increase of staff, resulting in the explosion of forms and reports which are unorganized and fragmented. As such, ReportNOW offers a centralized system for Karin Group to integrate and coordinate data and information from different departments. For instance, ReportNOW is a useful tool for managing staff roster including time allocation and task for different grades of personnel like engineers and consultants.
Through ReportNOW, information can be easily integrated and consolidated. It not just improves the workflow but provides management structured data to conduct analysis and thus formulate long-term and effective business strategy. As a no-code platform, ReportNOW is simple-to-use in that its degree of convenience and flexibility satisfies the needs of different departments and teams for customization of forms and reports to establish a workflow. More importantly, concerned staff is not required to possess IT background nor knowledge about coding. Through r-Designer, they can simply drag and drop the elements to design the forms and reports they need. Such no-code platform accelerates the process of digitalization and effectively enhances the efficiency of resource management for an enterprise.
ReportNOW as Additional Kit for Digital Transformation of a Business
Compatibility with different systems is one of the key features of ReportNOW, adding values and functionalities to enterprises’existing systems. Before introducing ReportNOW, different departments of Karin Group such as Human Resources Department and Finance Department might use their own systems and methods to manage data.
