Digital Transaction Management

What Is Digital Transaction Management?

Digital transaction management (DTM) is one of the easiest on-ramps to digital transformation. It consists of managing document-based transactions in a completely electronic manner.

More importantly, however, DTM is about streamlining business processes—by keeping document processes fully digital, including, but not limited to, the electronic signature. We advise our clients to embrace DTM for three reasons: business automation, faster time to revenue, and overall cost reduction, and help them address the following questions:

• How can I implement a DTM strategy into my sales process?
• What are the key trends in DTM and how should I get started with advanced DTM?
• Who are the DTM providers I should be evaluating, based on my industry security standards?

The Future of DTM Includes Content Automation and Blockchain

For B2B enterprises, documents continue to be the currency of conducting business. Therefore, Aragon recommends that enterprises prioritize the automation of document processes in their digital transformation strategies, as these stand to have the greatest impact on business.

Additionally, there are disruptive, new technologies coming online such as blockchain and advanced DTM—what Aragon refers to as workflow and content automation (WCA)—that are paving the way for the future of the DTM market.
