(Weymouth, MA) May 07, 2012…InfoTrends has announced the release of a new multi-client study entitled Business Process Automation Opportunities for Vertical Markets. This study examines key business processes in the paper intensive Legal, Financial Services, Healthcare, and Education industries to better understand adoption rates or barriers for specific automated business processes.

"The Legal, Financial Services, Education, and Healthcare industries have been known to be the most paper intensive markets,” commented InfoTrends Senior Director Randy Dazo. “However, despite technology advances, compliance initiatives and automation there are still manual business processes that are present in each of these industries. These remain to be obstacles in streamlining the flow of business.”

This study will help subscribers to:

• Map the workflow and identify key business processes that can be addressed with capture, mobile and workflow solutions in paper intensive markets.
• Understand how to create the right mix of hardware, software and services for specific business processes.
• Use data from the research to articulate the return on investment opportunities for each of the specific workflow’s key stakeholders.
• Better address barriers as well as key in on benefits for line of business managers and their business process knowledge-workers.

To examine the full range of these business automation opportunities, InfoTrends will first conduct 50+ in-depth interviews with line of business stakeholders or key process knowledge-workers in order to map and identify business processes opportunities. InfoTrends will then perform approximately 400 web-based surveys (100 per market) to understand the distribution degree of BPA in order to understand adoption and barriers. InfoTrends will thoroughly examine existing market information on market segments, competitors, and product categories using a variety of sources, including industry trade associations, government agencies, published industry reports, trade articles, industry databases, company websites, and other sources.
