SFMTA uses the Nintex Platform to drive digital transformation across the workplace and operations

Who They Are

San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency is a department of the city and county of San Francisco that oversees the city’s network of ground transportation, which includes buses, trains, cable cars, and more.

What they need

SFMTA needed a solution to help digitize and automate its paper-based processes across the agency to improve coordination.

How they did it

Using Nintex Forms and Nintex Workflow for Office 365, SFMTA was able to automate various internal and external-facing processes to save time and improve efficiency.

Optimizing internal and external processes with automation at SFMTA

San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFTMTA) is responsible for the management of ground transportation in the city of San Francisco, California. SFMTA wanted to eliminate paper forms and digitize business processes across the agency to improve overall productivity and efficiency.

SFMTA used Nintex and partnered with KnowledgeLake, to transform the organization’s paper forms and documents into digital forms and workflows with Nintex.

San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency speeds workflow automation with Nintex

Aside from overseeing nearly 700,000 riders daily, the SFMTA is has made digitization a priority. When SFMTA’s TSI department began leveraging SharePoint, they quickly realized they needed a more robust solution for workflow automation. After evaluating workflow automation offerings, the agency settled on Nintex for its ease-of-use and quick time to deployment, not required coding or servers.

For the last eight years, SFMTA has been leveraging Nintex Forms and Workflows to automate previously paper-based processes agency-wide from large external projects like the managing supply chain processes to smaller internal tasks, Nintex is helping SFMTA drive efficiency. These small transformations have produced big results for SFMTA, saving time and improving data quality. To date, SFMTA has transformed its HR alternative work schedule request, electronic return to work, and surveillance video requests with Nintex.

Customer Testimonials

Everything that’s coming out of Nintex that we can get out hands on, we’re looking at. Our most recent Nintex implementation is in Salesforce and the team is very interested in implementing workflows and forms there. They’re leaning on IT to help them get started, but they’ll pick it up quick. We’re also excited about how we can use Nintex [Promapp®] Process Management. That’s something we’re looking forward to taking advantage of really soon.

Our attempts to mitigate Power Automate’s limitations by inserting reminders and notifications to the user like, ‘Hey, this instance is about to expire. Do something with it,’ didn’t always work. So, instance failure rate was the metric that we wanted to change. With Nintex, the 20% failure rate we experienced in Power Automate dropped significantly.

My new form tool is Nintex. Period. All my development is in Nintex, and I no longer have to touch InfoPath. In fact, when I need a new update to an InfoPath form, I just rebuild it in Nintex.

Business users are creating their own automated workflows and forms using Nintex by themselves, to meet their requirements. The central IT team is not a blockage for business improvement, and that is good for the future of our company.

I got into firefighting and riding this ambulance to help people, not to fill out all this paperwork and make sure government regulations are met. With Nintex, that part of my job has been minimized so that I can back to the part that I do enjoy.

Without a doubt, at Auswide Bank, we believe our size and our scale is an advantage. So we can find solutions to problems and implement them, such as Nintex and Process Manager. And we can actually be far more nimble, far more innovative than those larger organizations.
