Streamlining agreements and reducing the contracting cycle

 

Discover-the-ROI-of-eSignature

Through deploying DocuSign eSignature and DocuSign Contract Lifecycle Management, along with Salesforce integration, OakNorth has streamlined the preparation of business agreements, automated and accelerated approvals, and reduced the overall contracting cycle.

Every loan provided by OakNorthBank requires a legal contract. Now thanks to Salesforce integration, these can be seamlessly triggered from inside the CRM so that document generation and routing for signature all happens from within the system environment that is most familiar to employees.

Equally, reporting on agreements is fundamental to delivering OakNorth deep visibility into status of each contract. DocuSign Contract Lifecycle Management stands to significantly increase the efficiency with which agreements are not only processed, but stored, accessed and made searchable to help meet compliance requirements.

 

All of these factors combined will allow us to further increase the speed at which we’re able to execute client transactions. This latest agreement is another example of how we’re continuing to push the envelope on what is possible for our borrowers."

-- Amir Nooriala, Chief Operating Officer at OakNorth.
