Increase Efficiencies, Reduce Costs & Streamline Production Processes with Consensus’ Solutions for Manufacturers
Secure, Cost-effective, Digital Faxing and eSignature Solutions for the Manufacturing Industry
The Unique Challenges Facing Manufacturing Companies
All types of manufacturing organizations, from original equipment (OEM) and design; to electronics; discrete; auto; textile; chemical; and digital manufacturers, continue to rely on paper faxing to transmit documents containing highly sensitive contract, materials requirements, scheduling or design data – using outdated, paper-based faxing equipment.
Optimize Data Workflow and Mitigate Risk
Manufacturers today must have the ability to securely exchange data with customers, partners, contractors and regulatory entities. Relying on paper-based faxing makes it nearly impossible for manufacturing companies to meet their essential responsibilities, including:
- Receiving, signing, and responding quickly to important faxes, from any destination
- Complying with regulations regarding customer, contractor and employee communications
- Reviewing design, assembly or process changes and assessing their impact
- Sharing scheduling documents that enable managers to easily and consistently track progress to ensure delivery schedules stay on track
Many forward-thinking manufacturing companies have chosen to upgrade from their legacy paper fax environments to our modern, digital cloud faxing solution and secure, digital signature tool in answer to these on-going challenges.

Increase Efficiencies Across Multiple Processes With Digital Signature
Digital Signature 
Increase Productivity, Decrease Manual Paperwork
With jSign digital signature, your staff will benefit from faster transactions – from design to scheduling, assembly and distribution. Plus, jSign meets the security, regulatory, and legal requirements to process forms, contracts, policies, designs, change orders, manufacturing certificates and more in just one easy-to-use platform.
Streamline Document Workflows and Increase Your Bottom Line
Wet ink may be the traditional way of signing manufacturing documents, but electronic signatures offer a wide range of features and benefits that can’t be matched by traditional methods of signing. In most cases, pen-and-paper signatures can be replaced with a more efficient, less expensive electronic signature solution.
Examples:
Contract coordination and execution
Paper documents need to be passed along to every signatory in proper order, adding to the time it takes to get the contract signed. When using e-signature, multiple people can review and sign the document simultaneously, eliminating bottlenecks.
Authorization to expedite the purchase of a service
Instead of waiting on interoffice mail, email or a paper fax, you can quickly get the document signed electronically within minutes.
Overseas document coordination
Paper documents may need to travel thousands of miles; even when you’re paying high fees to expedite mailing, it results in a slower process. Electronic documents can be sent and signed almost instantly, even from across the world.
Other business benefits include:
- Reduced costs due to elimination of paper
- Improved accuracy with digital recordkeeping
- Enhanced support for remote workflows
- Fortified adherence to security & compliance standards and requirements
