going paper-less
PREPARED BY..RAKESH RIKAME
INTRODUCTION* Concept introduced in the 1980s.* Office of the Future, one that requires little or no paper to do business.* Instead of paper, the paperless office would use modern technology to accomplish all of the same goals.* Going Paperless can make documenta-tion and Information sharing easier, keep personal information more secure and help the environment.
REALITY* Paper is the number one material thrown away and also one of the biggest polluting industries.
* Companies interested in reducing cost and building business sustainability are actively pursuing PAPERLESS OFFICE.
* While a completely 100% paperless office may be unattainable, a few decisive steps applied over the time can dramatically reduce if not eliminate the vast majority of paper in office.
Why Go Paperless
1.Saves Time2.Saves Money3.Saves Space4.Improves Security5.Boosts Company Image
1.Save Time
With a paperless filing system, searching through thousands of files becomes as easy as “Ctrl + F.” Of course there is a learning curve, but the Small Business Administration (SBA) suggests that going paperless increases the productivity, functionality and efficiency of an office.
2.Save Money
A paperless office obviously buys less paper, saving an average of almost $80 per employee, according to the EPA. But less obvious is the far more significant savings in ink, toner, postage, files storage space, trips to the post office and time spent shredding old files or searching for misfiled documents.
3.Save Space
Bulky file cabinets are obsolete. A whole cabinet of contents can be condensed into two gigabytes of neatly organized files on a hard drive. Old file rooms can become new offices.
4.Improves Security
Storing and backing up documents on the cloud (online) eliminates the need to carry sensitive papers out of the office. Rigorous safeguards built into back-up systems ensure data is not lost through natural disaster or accident, either
5.Boosts Company Image Considering that a one terabyte hard drive could possibly save 50,000 trees and that a recent Harris Interactive survey found an increasing number of Americans consider a business’s
environmental track record in their purchasing decisions, going paperless may be an ideal way to improve your business image and gain more
