MHA Tait Walker* has selected VirtualSignature to deliver the eSignature solution SmartSign, as part of its focus on continuous improvement and exceeding client expectations, securing another significant win for the fast-growing digital onboarding specialist.
The SmartSign Qualified eSignature application is being accessed through iManage Work using the seamless integration designed and provided by leading iManage partner Tiger Eye, who are known and trusted by firms around the world for their unparalleled iManage technical knowledge and implementation experience.
Simon Brown, Partner at MHA Tait Walker*, commented that “iManage has been deployed as part of the transition to digital services to support our clients in the move to hybrid work environments. We want to continue to serve our clients no matter where our staff are based and iManage is a key part of this enablement. Adding the VirtualSignature applications is a natural development which will further leverage our investment in iManage and we’re delighted to have selected them to support us in continuing to develop our service offering. It works like a dream and the integration into iManage is the key to making it slick and less time consuming than a non-integrated alternative.”
MHA Tait Walker* will initially deploy SmartSign and are looking to add supplementary VirtualSignature applications to ensure that aside from documents being sent securely for eSignature, the client onboarding process can be further streamlined to reduce time, enhance the end user experience and importantly, meet risk and compliance requirements.
Tiger Eye MD, Dave Wilson, expressed his delight with the partnership approach: “We elected to work with VirtualSignature to deliver and manage the integration of their platform into iManage as we see real, tangible benefits to our customers in the legal and accountancy sectors. The digitisation and automation of processes will help firms to speed up client onboarding times, as well as reduce costs. iManage, with the integrated VirtualSignature platform, plays a significant role in enabling this.”
David Kern, CEO, VirtualSignature said “We very much appreciate MHA Tait Walker* reviewing the market and selecting to work with us to deliver automation of their document exchange and eSigning and for allowing us to deliver this alongside Tiger Eye via an integration into iManage. Our focus is always on answering our customers’ needs by working with them to develop solutions that add real value.”
