Founded in 1985, Kofax has grown from a small startup to a versatile software company with a large portfolio of capture, process management, analytics and mobile solutions. The purchase-to- pay, record-to- report and order-to- cash processes an organisation undertakes are often bogged down by inefficient, manual work and an inability to harness the large amounts of unstructured data that aren’t managed by an ERP. End-to- end financial process automation (FPA) solutions from Kofax are designed to bring order to data and processes by automating an organisation’s entire financial cycle. By doing so, routine and manual tasks are eliminated and staff members and stakeholders across the company gain complete visibility into key metrics and process performance. Our software works within a company’s ERP, instead of around it, making workflow intuitive and seamless. Kofax solutions can be integrated with any existing ERP, including SAP, Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle PeopleSoft, Microsoft Dynamics and Infor Lawson, as well as with multiple ERPs. The last five years have brought exciting changes to Kofax, with the addition of key technologies, like robotic process automation provider Kapow, to our solutions portfolio. In 2015, Kofax and ReadSoft became part of the same family of solutions. With service across 70 countries, Kofax is a global market leader serving the unique challenges of large, complex and decentralised organisations.
