Compass Software® Return on Investment

With agency budgets shrinking across the nation and the demands on human services agencies increasing, agencies everywhere are looking for ways to do more with less.

At Northwoods, we help agencies reduce fixed costs by greatly reducing paper use, toner purchases, and physical file storage, while at the same time helping case managers and other agency employees handle their daily tasks more effectively. Our solutions vastly improve the ease and speed of daily tasks like filling out forms, finding the right information, and delivering documents to the appropriate workers.

An independent researcher recently found that Compass Software®:
  • Saves an average of 16 minutes per re-determination interview.
  • Saves case managers an average of eight minutes answering/processing inquiries when the case file must be accessed.
  • Saves an average of 30 seconds for each document processed from mail and 2.5 minutes for drop-offs.
  • Can save as much as two hours of a case manager's day that would otherwise be wasted on repetitive, menial tasks.
And these numbers only cover our document management, electronic forms, and distributed capture applications. In addition, we have solutions that balance caseloads; that transfer case files between agencies, to the state, or with other entities; and that help streamline appointment scheduling and client flow through the agency.
