The Internet hasn't just helped businesses, it completely revolutionized the entire global business sector. There was a time, though, when companies had to adjust on the fly without the benefit of digital programs. Thankfully, that's not the case anymore -- yet so many businesses are still doing things in some antiquated ways.
Document challenges, for instance, can cause all sorts of problems for a business, which is why it's extremely helpful to look to document digitization services, rather than conventional paper storage. According to a global survey of workers and IT professionals by IDC, document challenges actually account for 21.3% of productivity loss. Additionally, it's not just productivity issues that document challenges cause. Approximately $20 is spent to file and store a single document and it actually costs $120 to find or replace misfiled documents.
So how often do documents get lost or misfield? Actually, quite often. Roughly 7.5% of all documents get lost and 3% of the remainder gets misfield. That might not seem like all that much in the grand scheme of things, but those document expenses can certainly add up and cause some significant financial problems for your business, especially since your productivity and efficiency levels will suffer as a result.
Document digitization services can prevent these costly financial problems and productivity issues from ever happening, however. Rather than stacking piles of paper high in offices around your building, stuffing paper documents into random file cabinets, and having multiple people handle multiple forms multiple times a day, leading to mass confusion; work with a document scanning and imaging service to address and prevent all these issues.
Document imaging services and digital scanning services will give you the ability to free up plenty of space around your office (subsequently helping your employees focus on important tasks), store these documents in a safe digital file for decades, and, once uploaded, you'll be able to quickly access all that information from anywhere in the world.
