Does your office rely on paper documents to keep things running? Paper documents can be cumbersome, difficult to store and manage and even lost or damaged easily. Instead of putting your important documents and data at risk – try backfile scanning in Reading instead!

Here are three main reasons why you should consider Resource Data Management for your backfile scanning:

1. Prevent Data Loss/Document Mismanagement

Studies have shown that approximately 7.5% of all documents in work settings are lost, and another 3% are misfiled. On top of that, studies also show that employees working in environments with paper documents spend about 19% of their time at work searching for documents.

With about 10% of documents becoming difficult or even impossible to find, there is too much room for error with paper documents. However, backfile scanning can improve your efficiency and safely handle each document by guaranteeing that they are available digitally! Accidentally file your digital item in the wrong folder? No problem! You can simply search for what you are looking for and migrate it to the correct location.

Digital documents are also more easily organized and can save space in your office. More easily found documents also lead to an increase in productivity, as employees will no longer spend almost a fifth of their time at work searching for hard to find paper documents!

2. Increase Security

Additionally, backfile scanning increases the security of your documents. You can encrypt sensitive materials or even require special log ins to access confidential materials. Documents can be redacted to protect privacy as well. Plus, digital documents can be backed up to an external drive elsewhere, protecting your documents from being lost in case of fires, floods or other natural disasters that could affect your office space.

3. Access Data Anywhere

Finally, backfile scanning allows you to have access to your documents no matter where you are. This can save time in cases of remote work – where employees would have to take the time out of their day to come to the office to scan a document or another employee would be responsible for scanning and emailing necessary documents to those offsite. Instead of leaning into the hassle that paper documents cause to remote work, backfile scanning provides you with digital documents that you or your employees can access anywhere they need to increase productivity.

If you own a business, you have probably been affected by the difficulties arising during COVID-19. Now that there’s an end in sight to the pandemic, these difficulties are starting to look like they may be around to stay a little bit longer.

However, that doesn’t mean that there’s no hope! Here at Resource Data Management (RDM), we offer a variety of services that can help your business increase its efficiency during these trying times, such as document imaging in New Jersey.

Human Resources Records Management

As companies fight being understaffed, there has been more employee turnover in many industries than normal. New employees who have never worked in the industry are trying something new; experienced and skilled employees are leaving their jobs to take on management positions elsewhere or retire. All of this leads to an increase in human resources records.

One of the easiest ways to notice significant increases in efficiency for your employees is to go digital. Manual processes can be automated, and paper documents can be scanned into digital storage making them easier to access. Human resources records management can also minimize the space you physically need to store paper records as we can store them for you at our secure, climate-controlled facility.

Accounts Payable and Invoice Processing Automation

Every business has expenses and incomes, which is why it is important to streamline your accounts payable process. Automating your systems can lead to decreased errors, more timely invoice processing, audit preparedness and more, making it a great efficiency boost for any business.

This is especially important in today’s economy, where prices are ever increasing, and business owners have to adapt to cost changes as well as supply chain shortages. By automating your accounts payable and invoice processing, you can become more responsive to changing conditions with ease.

Document Scanning

Finally, you can also increase efficiency by moving over any important documents to a digital format. Beyond just human resources records, you can store any paper records you have digitally, making them more accessible while requiring less physical space in your facility.

Document scanning is also becoming increasingly more important as more employees from various fields work remotely. Anyone working remotely can still access the digital files that they need, increasing the overall productivity of any remote employee.
