Document Output Management

  • Do you have a document strategy?

  • Need to save money on document costs?

  • Do you know what your document costs are?

  • Did you know that 12 to 15% of a typical corporation's revenue is spent on document production, management and distribution?

  • Did you know that for every $1 you spend in your document expense, that you will use more than $9 to manage it?

 

Document and Productivity Expenses

Today's businesses must work harder, smarter and more cost effectively than ever before. Employees are stressed and overloaded with information - often doing more work with fewer people. The ability for a business to remain competitive hinges on doing many things right. Starting with the ability to efficiently store, output, network and retrieve critical business information, we, at Tri-State Business Machines, Inc., can help you build a more effective document strategy. 

Business and nonprofit organizations can benefit from knowing their document related expenses. These costs are not generally tracked across departments, and if they are, the information may not be utilized.  This initial cost can run from 10 to 15% of your document output expense. We in business know that hidden costs have the greatest impact. These hidden costs arise from a document's life cycle. 

Did you ever track a document's path though your business? You would be amazed at the time and effort invested to build, process and completely finish the documents your business creates. Also, what about long term document storage? 

Do you scan documents into an electronic filing system? If so, is retrieving documents and the related information easily accessible? Can you easily search and sort though retrieved documents? If you would like help with solving these questions, then we at Tri-State Business Machines, Inc., can help. 

Most businesses need better document tracking and related costs help in:

  • Measuring total print, copy, fax and scanned document volumes
  • Managing documents and employees time more effectively
  • Technology advances and how to apply these to your situation
  • Identifying initial document costs and related hidden costs
  • Updating document creation and long time storage needs
  • Enhancing document creation and distribution proficiency
  • Automating time consuming, manual tasks with advanced technology
  • Building and maintaining a effective document strategy
  • Reducing costs, increasing efficiency and productivity

Did you know that for every $1 you spend in your document expenses, that you will use more than $9 to manage it? (Source: multi-client case studies by ALL Associates Group, 2000-2004.)
