Back Office Conversion for the New Remote Workplace

Working from home is the new normal. Many businesses are closing their doors or moving to a hybrid workforce. And, many of these companies are expediting their plans to invest in technology and digital transformation as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, with the idea of hybrid working becoming their new way of doing business. What’s interesting about hybrid and working-from-home business models is that businesses could be running with some employees working from the office full-time and some employees working from home full-time and others choosing a hybrid option to work between home and the office as they see fit. With this new way of working, back office conversion has become increasingly crucial.

As employees move their offices into their homes, it has become necessary for them to access important files remotely. Even if you still have your offices open, are you prepared for a hybrid workforce in the future? The future of your business could come with some challenges if you don’t have the proper infrastructure in place. That’s where we come in. At Resource Data Management, we offer back office conversion for Harrisburg and the surrounding areas and can help prepare your business for seamless remote work. 

Here at RDM we will provide a customized web interface made specifically for your business. All of your records will be easily accessible, stored safely. If you or an approved employee needs a file, it is easily accessible from anywhere. You will never have to waste time trying to find and pull the right file. Your office can go altogether paperless, sacrificing nothing and allowing your employees to get the job done from wherever they are.

Even if you’re not ready for your office to go completely remote, back office conversion can have great business continuity benefits. For example, if the office is ever shut down, whether it’s due to a natural disaster, an issue at the office or illness as we’ve seen with the COVID-19 pandemic, an already set-in-place hybrid working approach means people can continue from normal without going to the office.

Ready to get started? Contact the back office conversion experts at RDM today to learn more about how you can prepare your business for the way of the future (or the present.)
