Choctawhatchee Electric Cooperative (CHELCO) Implements Electronic Document Management Solution provided by Document Imaging Solutions, Inc.

DAYTON, Ohio, For immediate release – Document Imaging Solutions, Inc. (DIS), an applications development and full-service systems integration company has provided a customized e-DMS Workflow™ solution to automate and streamline many of Choctawhatchee Electric Cooperatives’ (CHELCO) paper documents and processes.

e-DMS Workflow™ is a robust, "out-of-the-box" open document/records management system for enterprise networks, corporate Intranets, and the Internet. It manages documents throughout their life cycle, from authoring and/or capture through review, approval, distribution, and archiving.

The e-DMS Workflow™ solution at CHELCO is deployed broadly throughout the organization in departments such as HR, Marketing, Member Accounting (Customer Service), Accounts Payable, Purchasing, Engineering and more. The solution manages all of the paper documents in electronic form and makes them available, on-line, for viewing by authorized users.

“CHELCO has worked with a couple of other document imaging vendors in the past, but none has fulfilled our needs like DIS,” said Wayne Thompson, Chief Financial Officer of CHELCO. “We have been pleased with the way DIS has been able to incorporate the products of these past relationships into the system it has built for us. Additionally, the new system developed by DIS meets all of our requirements for easy retrieval in the future. Its user-friendly system has given us a new peace of mind about document storage.”

“In the future we will be implementing DIS workflow solutions to streamline many business processes throughout our organization,” said Wayne Thompson.
