Time to Create PDFs, Boosting Efficiency

Leading Netherlands-based shipbuilder Damen Shipyards Group relies on digital documents to drive key aspects of its business process, including creating and signing customer contracts and applying for employee visas. To reduce its spend on software licenses and cut the time required to create PDFs, Damen replaced multiple PDF editing tools with a single, centralized Kofax Power PDF solution.

“We estimate that we saved more than €300,000 on our licensing costs by replacing Adobe with Kofax Power PDF, a huge reduction.”
