The hybrid work model is here, and with it comes some unique challenges. Getting control over “content chaos” caused by the increasing amount of data and documents we are creating is a challenge to effective and efficient collaboration. Managing this issue is one of the biggest challenges businesses face.

As we enter the second quarter of 2022, life is returning to a “new” normal. Many of the trends of the past two years are still a fact of life and most likely will be for the long haul. Remote work, online meetings, and app and subscription services that bring us our entertainment and groceries are here to stay. The way we work and live has changed dramatically!

Information is the lifeblood of every organization. Today, even as digital technologies are becoming more available, too many businesses are still relying on outdated, manual document management strategies that are inefficient and costly.

Today, technology is giving us ways to move our businesses forward at an increasing rate. One time-saving use of technology is the automation of repetitive workflows to create efficiencies. Workflow automation involves the digitization and subsequent automation of business processes in an effort to create efficiencies by reducing the need for manual labor.

Is your workspace filled with collated stacks of documents, piles of manila folders, and filing cabinets overflowing with paper? Mountains of paper are a tell-tale sign that it’s time to embrace change. As Earth Day approaches, it’s the perfect time to streamline how you accumulate and handle documents, finally taking your business toward the paperless office.

No matter what the size of your business, or industry you’re in, you share something in common with every other business… the challenge of managing paper documents. Even as we move toward the paperless office, the fact is, most businesses still rely on paper on a day-to-day basis.

What is the Allied Advantage? Our customers know it’s our experience with technology and our commitment to service that makes us stand out, but they always tell us it’s our people who truly make us shine!

Even though we’re living in the digital age, more than half of businesses still rely on paper processes. The challenge to keep up with paperwork is becoming even more of a struggle as businesses are often under pressure to produce more, with fewer resources.
