WELCOME to Empower 2014!
Dear Colleague:
Welcome to Empower 2014! I am delighted that you have come to participate in the activities and
opportunities offered by the Laserfiche community.
More than 2,000 of us are gathered here to explore the frontiers and push the boundaries of information
management. We are living in a unique time in history. As change agents, we are charged with the
responsibility to demonstrate leadership within our organizations. This is the place to hone our
technological edge and reaffirm our commitment to excellence.
Whether you’re here to learn about new Laserfiche products or to expand your knowledge on best
practices in designing business processes, implementing e-forms or improving your approach to project
management, Empower 2014 offers a wide range of learning and networking opportunities, including many
hands-on labs, lunch Q&A sessions, user group meetings and more.
Whenever the opportunity presents itself, I encourage you to take a moment to introduce yourself to those
around you, whether it’s in a classroom, at your lunch table or at a social event. You will find that your fellow
attendees are as excited and motivated to be here as you are.
So let’s get started! Enjoy, excel, thrive!
Nien-Ling Wacker
Founder and CEO
In Celebration
Tom Wayman
Vice President, Marketing and Product Strategy
Many of you may be aware that Tom Wayman
passed away last May. Tom joined Laserfiche
in 1991 as a programmer and was promoted
to systems engineer before moving to the
marketing department and serving as vice
president of marketing and product strategy.
Tom’s passion for helping organizations use
the Laserfiche Run Smarter® philosophy drove
him to continuously push for bigger and better
things from the company and to maintain
excellence in product development, marketing,
sales and customer support. The consummate customer champion, Tom
encouraged us to keep the community’s needs front and center at all times.
His vision, energy and talent inspired us all to reach new heights.
To honor Tom’s memory, and in recognition of his many contributions to
the Laserfiche community, we are introducing a new Run Smarter® Award:
The Tom Wayman Leadership Award. This award will be presented to an
individual within the Laserfiche community who exemplifies extraordinary
leadership, vision and commitment to sharing the Run Smarter® philosophy.
Please join us for the Run Smarter® Awards ceremony during the general
session on Thursday morning to celebrate the achievements of the first
annual recipient of the Tom Wayman Leadership Award.

General Information
Laptop Configuration
At Empower 2014, the labs will be using a virtual machine that simulates the
environment of the Laser Investigators, a fictitious private investigation firm
using Laserfiche to operate more efficiently. Labs will provide 50-80 laptops
for attendees, and registering for a lab guarantees your use of one of the
provided laptops.
In addition to the provided laptops, there will be seating for 20-25 more
students running the virtual machines themselves. If you were unable to register
for a lab, or if you prefer to use your own computer, you may install the lab VM
on your own laptop.
This virtual machine runs Windows Server 2008 R2, and requires the following
minimum hardware in order to run:
`` 64-bit OS for the host (laptop) machine (Windows 8, 7, Vista)
`` VMWare Player 6
`` Dual core or higher CPU
`` 4 GB of RAM, more recommended
`` 50 GB hard drive space
Need help?
If you would like assistance setting up the
virtual machine on your computer, please
stop by the Info Center.
“
If you can manage to go a day early or stay an
extra day, do it! Disneyland is walking distance
from the conference hotel and I spent a day
and a half at Disneyland last year before the
conference and had a blast!

“
I really liked the way the courses at Empower were set up;
for example, I didn’t realize how in-depth they would be in
sharing other companies’ stories. It was comforting to learn
how other companies experienced their implementations as
Circor was getting ready for its own.

Washington Student Achievement Council (WSAC) currently uses Laserfiche
Rio to manage more than 100,000 accounts, helping families all over
Washington state save for college. The agency maintains its own records
center in Laserfiche, which includes finance records and customer service
call-center correspondence. It scans and indexes more than 2,000 pieces of
paper a month.
WSAC uses Laserfiche Workflow to automate and standardize the application
process. It uses Laserfiche Quick Fields to automatically scan, process and
file applications for student aid. Using Laserfiche RME, WSAC has adopted
transparent records management around financial aid applications. This has
increased document security, improved customer service in the call center
and saved WSAC many hours of staff time on filing and archiving records.

status tracking with Laserfiche Workflow.

NorthStar Financial Services Group, LLC
Accepting: Jim Anderson, Chief Systems Officer
Laserfiche Reseller: Accelerated Information Systems, Inc.
The NorthStar Financial Services Group replaced IBM FileNet with Laserfiche
Rio. Laserfiche is the backbone of the company’s document management and
workflow organization-wide. Although NorthStar has had Laserfiche for less
than a year, the group has already automated multiple business processes
including: CLS New Account Onboarding, Orion Advisor Services New
Agreements and Legal Requests.
Laserfiche Quick Fields is used to capture more than 90 fields of data from
the CLS Investor Profile, eliminating the need to manually key the data.
NorthStar is also planning the implementation of Laserfiche RME for contracts
and documents that have retention requirements under SEC and FINRA.
Implementing Laserfiche at NorthStar has eliminated double entry of new
account data into two systems and resulted in 40% improvement in employees’
time to focus on getting assets in the door.
T Bank
Accepting: Thad Hutcheson, Chief Technology Officer
Laserfiche Reseller: Zeno Imaging
T Bank implemented Laserfiche Rio just this year to automate processes such
as AP processing, HR onboarding, loan processing, wire transfers, auditing
submission and more. While all business processes are being mapped as
needed, the initial emphasis was on audits.
In the future, the bank plans to expand Laserfiche to departments like Trust
and Fraud Services; integrate with BancTel and BancPac; and use Laserfiche
WebLink to improve document sharing with third parties.
