How to process applications quickly, while maintaining stringent checks

Processing forms take days or even weeks. That's because of the many checks that your team has to perform. How can you free your team from eyeballing data fields? Read on to find out more.
Man manually processing applications

It may only take minutes to fill up an application form, but processing that form — whether it’s an account opening, grant application, certification or something else — could take days or even weeks.

Your customers don’t understand what’s the reason for the hold up, but you do. It’s the many checks that your team has to perform before an application is approved, rejected or sent back from additional information. 

This lost time equates to more than just excess manpower costs, it can also result in lost customers and business opportunities.

Common issues during application checks

1

The information submitted by applicants can be false or fraudulent.

2

Verifying this information will require your team to obtain reference data, which may be difficult to procure if it’s outside of your organisation.

3

Manually processing applications is time-consuming, error-prone and possibly subject to human bias. Moreover, some checks (such as connection checks) are simply not practical to perform without technology.
