Going Paperless in Less than 90 Days

Going Paperless in Less than 90 Days

Today’s market requires businesses to stay agile and access information quickly. When your business is paperless, all documents are captured and stored securely. We might point out that the term is paperLESS, not paper-free. It’s unlikely that today’s culture is going to be completely free of paper any time soon (but, hey, prove me wrong!). Digitizing information stored in protected digital archives means less paper in the office, no more lost documents, and overflowing file cabinets.

 

In 90 days or less, with the assistance of the Dash team in partnership with your team, you can install, implement, and utilize a paper-LESS office. We have been assisting companies for over 20 years to digitize their documents. When documents are organized and secured, achieving compliance standards is greatly simplified and expedited.

 

Space saving.

Disaster ready.

Remote location equipped.

Compliance standard complete.

= Your business can create a paper-LESS office (still a little paper, just a lot LESS!) by prioritizing the need to digitize the information. Sometimes this means taking a deeper look at your processes and workflows. Ask each team in your organization where a paper-LESS office could be created. What processes could be improved and move quicker with digital information?

Companies invest in a document management system for a variety of reasons: some need to manage a growing workload, while others seek to reduce tedious, manual tasks.  Many collaborative tasks require document processing and improving their efficiency thus driving a significant impact on your company’s bottom line.

If you want to capture significant ROI with your solution, start by calculating your savings, and choose the best opportunities for your business. Prioritize your implementation using that information: generally focusing on the biggest payback early. But always consider that the first phase should be a relatively simple one to test your assumptions and to get accustomed to the new tools – and not get too bogged down in volume. Then tackle the harder areas that probably have the larger payback.
