• To save money. In many cases businesses do not have the capability to stockpile the many records/boxes they accumulate at their offices. They in turn rent storage units to hold these cartons. Monthly fees to store ‘dead files’ can be an unnecessary drain on any company’s budget. Typically around 2000 pages can be stored in a standard 1.2 cubic foot carton, whereas 1 DVD which is flat and approximately 4” in diameter can store upwards of 75,000 pages of information and can be stored in a desk drawer.
• To be more efficient. When it is time to recall a specific file, the task can be daunting if your stored records are not properly inventoried and easily accessible. You must first locate what you think is the correct box, then hope that it contains the information you are seeking. By scanning your files and storing them digitally, you have the ability to ‘index’ with as many ‘fields’ as you desire. This enables you to remain in your office or even at your desk and retrieve whatever documents you are looking for in a clean and efficient manner. With productivity at a premium, efficiency is a key component to helping companies run smoothly.
• To save space. Over periods of time and through a gradual process--boxes, files and papers continue to accumulate throughout your office, basement, attic and storage facility. The general rule of thumb depending on your industry standard is to retain records for a period of 7 years for them to be deemed “compliant”. Not only will you likely not need these files while in storage, but now you have lost much of you workspace and other storage areas and have possibly created a fire hazard. This makes the environment cramped and seemingly unproductive. By scanning these documents and storing them in a digital format you are able to gain back all of that lost space.
• Go ‘green’. By having these files scanned, you now have the ability to shred all of the existing original paper documents in order to properly dispose of them. Once Allstar shreds the confidential information, it is baled with thousands of pounds of other shredded materials and exported for recycling to create new paper products.
