Your Challenges

Paper-intensive work environments create a number of challenges, including high costs, errors, decreased productivity, lack of storage, difficulty with compliance, and lower customer satisfaction due to the time it takes to locate documents.

Key Challenges

  • Recent industry surveys tell us that organisations are burdened by more paper than ever, and many are struggling to find the best ways to manage and organise it.
  • Most offices don't have a direct link from their MFPs to the desired document repository, resulting in an error-prone, multi-step process to upload scanned documents, which is time-consuming and costly.
  • Scanned documents are typically non-searchable PDFs, which makes it nearly impossible to find critical information when you need it most.
  • Employee productivity remains low if your workers are spending hours searching paper documents, costing your business more money.
  • Maintaining compliance is an unavoidable cost of doing business for many – and complying with government regulations requires easy retrieval of key information.
  • Maintaining customer satisfaction is important to any business, but delays in response times could greatly impact a customer's experience and loyalty.
  • Organisations are always looking for the best ways to take a step forward with their sustainability initiatives – and keeping a paper-intense office environment will cost your business money on paper, ink, toner, energy, transportation, storage, and postage.

How Xerox Can Help

Integrating MFPs with an enterprise content management (ECM) system is an easy way to save your organisation money. MFPs can help automate tedious office activities by enabling employees to scan documents directly into an ECM workflow that routes documents automatically to specific departments or colleagues.
