Wallace Diack is one of New Zealand's leading accounting and advisory firms, with offices across the country and a team committed to delivering consistent, high-quality client service.

As the firm continued investing in digital transformation, one area stood out as an opportunity for improvement: document preparation. The team wanted to reduce repetitive manual work, improve consistency across client packs, and create a smoother experience for both staff and clients.

Rather than simply replacing one process with another, Wallace Diack wanted to rethink how documents were created, collated, and delivered.

Moving beyond manual document preparation

Before implementing FuseDocs, preparing client documentation involved multiple manual steps that consumed valuable time across the firm.

As workloads increased, the team recognised that repetitive document preparation wasn't the best use of skilled staff. They needed a solution that would help automate routine work while maintaining the professional standard clients expected.

FuseDocs gave Wallace Diack the opportunity to standardise document preparation without sacrificing flexibility.

Building a workflow around the way the firm works

Rather than forcing the firm to adapt to new software, FuseWorks worked closely with Wallace Diack to understand how the team already operated and build workflows around those existing processes.

That collaborative approach helped ensure the implementation reflected the firm's day-to-day requirements while creating opportunities to simplify and improve them along the way.

The result was a document workflow that felt familiar to staff while eliminating many of the repetitive administrative tasks that had previously slowed the team down.

Creating consistency across every client pack

One of the biggest improvements came through greater consistency.

FuseDocs helped Wallace Diack automate the collation of client documents into professional, well-presented packs that followed the firm's branding and formatting standards every time.

Instead of relying on individual staff members to manually assemble documents, the team could produce consistent outputs regardless of who prepared the pack.

That reduced the risk of human error while giving clients a more polished and professional experience.

Giving staff more time for valuable work

The benefits extended well beyond document preparation.

By reducing manual administration, staff could spend more time supporting clients and less time completing repetitive back-office tasks.

Automating document workflows also created greater confidence across the team. With a consistent process in place, onboarding new staff became easier and document preparation no longer depended on individual knowledge or workarounds.

As a result, the team could focus on delivering advice rather than managing paperwork.

Supporting the complete client journey

Wallace Diack also adopted FuseSign as part of its broader document workflow, helping streamline the final step of the client journey.

Once documents had been prepared in FuseDocs, they could be sent electronically for signatures, giving clients a faster and more convenient way to complete important paperwork.

Together, FuseDocs and FuseSign created a connected workflow that reduced manual handling, improved turnaround times, and made it easier for both staff and clients to manage documents from beginning to end.

The result

For Wallace Diack, implementing FuseDocs was about much more than automating document collation.

The firm created a more consistent document workflow, reduced repetitive administration, and delivered a better client experience without disrupting the way the team already worked.

By combining document automation with digital signatures, Wallace Diack built a workflow that is faster, more reliable, and better equipped to support the firm's continued growth.
