Written by Admin | Apr 10, 2025 5:15:39 AM

The Building Research Institute (ITB) is a leading research institution in Poland, specializing in construction industry innovation for over 75 years. The institute conducts 3,000+ research reports, 600 expert opinions, and 700 technical evaluations annually, supporting the development of modern construction standards.

The Challenge: Inefficient Document & Process Management

Before implementing Infinite Workflow, ITB struggled with:
πŸ”Ή Manual handling of administrative and research documents – Slowing down approvals and record-keeping.
πŸ”Ή Limited digital tracking of scientific projects – Research documentation, laboratory equipment, and accreditation processes were not centralized.
πŸ”Ή High workload in processing purchase invoices – Handling 1,000 invoices per month required significant administrative effort.
πŸ”Ή Lack of automated internal communication – Employees relied on outdated methods for announcements and requests.
πŸ”Ή Need for ERP system integration – No structured data exchange between ITB's ERP system and research records.

To improve efficiency, transparency, and collaboration, ITB sought an advanced workflow automation system.

ITB partnered with Infinite IT Solutions to deploy Infinite Workflow, a fully digital document management and automation platform.
