As a rule of thumb for the evaluation of individual use cases, we expect that an analogue signature run will take about 10 minutes to process. (If signatures are obtained by post, approval usually takes much longer.) For Sony DADC, a well-known customer of sproof, this means a saving of 292 working days with 9350 documents signed annually. Calculated against the costs for integration and use of the platform, the introduction of the digital signature in this example has already paid for itself after 12 weeks.
Of course, in addition to the time and personnel costs, there are other resources such as paper costs, printer costs, shipping costs as well as logistical resources such as space requirements for archiving the documents, which are not yet included in this calculation.
