Case Study: Sustainability in Alameda County

As Alameda County agencies looked at ways to make their business greener, a recurrent theme was that reducing paper consumption with digital processes would make significant strides toward meeting the County’s goals. One sticking point in eliminating paper, however, was that many documents, such as new-hire paperwork, vendor contracts, leases and other agreements, all required signatures. To eliminate its old, manual, paper-based systems, the County needed a digital solution with a legally enforceable eSignature component so signatories could sign documents without needing to print.
