NHN Dooray said on the 15th that it is establishing itself as a leading operator in the public e-approval market by fronting an ERP-linked e-approval service.
NHN Dooray is supplying collaboration features such as mail, messenger, and projects, along with artificial intelligence (AI) services, to about 150 public institutions, maintaining its foothold in the public collaboration tool market by number of institutions. Building on this, it is supplying the Dooray e-approval service—which has multiple advantages over on-premise products—to about 20 public institutions, expanding its customer base in the public e-approval market as well.
The Dooray e-approval applies a non-proprietary standard linkage architecture, designed to integrate not only a variety of enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems on the market but also in-house built ERPs. Unlike conventional on-premise e-approval systems that are tied to a specific ERP and incur large-scale integration and rebuild expense when systems change, it enables rapid integration while maintaining institution-specific forms and approval procedures. As a cloud-based service, it can be adopted without separate system build-out expense, requiring only migration expense for existing documents and conversion expense for ERP integration.
Because it is software as a service (SaaS)-based, features are continuously improved and enhanced, and it also reduces the burden of installing and operating systems and equipment. It broadly supports functions needed for the unique approval environments of public institutions—such as web drafter integration, official document distribution module linkage, records file management, and unit task management—so existing workflows can be maintained.
Another feature is that, through linkage with C&F System's public-institution SaaS-type ERP, ALL#, it is a general-purpose model whose service quality and performance have been verified in real operating environments. NHN Dooray is expanding its service supply to various public institutions that use market ERPs and in-house built ERPs, based on the same linkage method.
Baek Chang-yeol, CEO of NHN Dooray, said, "The Dooray e-approval service has an architecture that can integrate regardless of ERP type, providing an environment where organizations can transition while maintaining their existing internal data and workflows," and added, "It will be one option for public institutions considering replacing their e-approval service due to system aging and expense issues."
