Is the decades old concept of a paperless office getting closer to becoming a reality for companies, administrations, and public authorities? The costs for hardware and software products have decreased significantly. Plus, these days, every office has the hardware needed to digitalize paper-based processes. Combined with the right software solution, this can help cut costs in many areas, whether resources or the storage of physical documents.
The trend is clear: We are witnessing a strong shift towards paperless work in companies. While only one in 100 companies was entirely paperless in 2018, this figure increased eightfold by 2022.
Nevertheless, at least one in every two workflows continues to involve paper, meaning there's still room for improvement, as every single person can ultimately benefit from paperless or paper-light approaches.
Thanks to the ELO ECM Suite, we drastically reduced our paper consumption in a very short time. Going forward, we aim to optimize this while streamlining our e-mail and invoice management workflows.
