Health Industry Company GISPASA Automates Its Business Processes with Auraportal BPM Suite

Woburn (Boston), MA. – April 20, 2011 – AuraPortal (www.auraportal.com), a global provider of Business Process Management (BPM), has announced today that the consulting firm PFS Grupo has implemented new core business procurement processes for hospital supplies and services at GISPASA (Health Infrastructure Management of Principado de Asturias).

The project's goal was to increase productivity, data quality and operational economy in the working procedures as well as the use and deployment of document management. The solution provides electronic signatures and digital filing for improved document organization and standardization instead of using traditional paper records.

Corporate profits obtained using AuraPortal can be summarized in the reduction of human error, automatic documentation generation with electronic signature, elimination of paper, date and alarm monitoring of critical tasks, integration with other systems and the rapid return on investment.

In addition, it allows an easy development of continuous improvement thanks to the versatility of the AuraPortal solution to manage and change processes in real time by users with no need of IT programming.

"The use of AuraPortal has allowed us to manage multiple procurements in parallel with total assurance that everything is going well and on time. We have also achieved 90% of the documentation associated with processes to be automatically generated by the system, providing an advantage to our workload, in addition to being able to leverage digital signatures and reduce paper use. And it has allowed us to keep track of incoming and outgoing digital documents, that allows us to significantly reduce our paper records. In summary, the project has been a great success". Alfonso de Carlos Muñoz, GISPASA General Manager.
