Tired of looking thru mountains of paperwork?

Tired of looking thru mountains of paperwork?
It's right here on my desk.
Hello. Welcome to my blog on electronic document management. I currently work in the export department of a company that supplies parts for large construction and mining equipment all over the world. Due to export policies and procedures, there is a tremendous amount of paperwork generated for every order. Studies show that employess typically spend 40% of their time filing and searching for documents. Electronic filing lets businesses regain this considerable amount of lost productivity by capturing documents electronically. Paperless filing is the answer for many people who use computers — whether it's for their home or business. People are tired and overwhelmed by scraps of paper, clunky old file folders and envelopes and all the clutter of excessive paperwork. Electronic document management makes it possible to to scan all received documents into your computer, and to store all in-house documents in your system as well. You can virtually eliminate paper faxes by generating faxes on your computer and having in-bound faxes delivered to your computer system. You can even electronically sign or signature-stamp outgoing documents. But you're still likely to have some paper floating through your office. Not all of your clients or customers will want to be billed electronically. The most visible impact of a move to a paperless office is the reduction in the cost of printing, mailing, shipping and storing paper. Over time, lots of other benefits should become apparent.
