The paperless office is one that uses minimal amounts of paper and converts all forms of documentation into digital forms. This is referred to as “going green in the office”. The paperless office produces productivity gains, costs savings, space saving, ease in sharing information, and a reduced impact on the environment.

What exactly are digital documents?
Basically a digital document is your physical document scanned into digital files such as PDFs, Jpegs, etc..etc… If your business does not use more than 50% of all documents as digital files, your business maybe be considered a “wasteful” company by today’s digital standards.
Why are digital documents important?
Digital documents can save hundreds or even thousands of trees per year for companies that traditionally use paper invoices, order forms, etc…etc…
Companies can start digitizing all of their information and start going green. Even better, you could probably even state, “Our company uses over 90% of digitized data and save XXX number of trees per year”.
In general, companies who use digital documents are far more organized and can backtrace any old document simply browsing through their hard drive instead of searching through boxes of physical files, which can be a costly in terms of both man power and physical storage space.
TCi can provide full document management services and document scanning for all levels of business, both private and government..
Most traditional companies will have hundreds of boxes of physical files that consist of accounting papers and other important documents such as patent files. By having all the information “digitized” into PDF files, you no longer need a physical space for your files nor do you have to worry about once-in-a-lifetime fire that could destory all your important information overnight.
Try visualizing all your stacked boxes full of files that are stuck in a corner of a warehouse all digitized and fitted into a portable 30GB harddrive you can carry with you anywhere in the world. Next time your client asks for proprietary information about your company, skip the IT guy and show it to him directly from your laptop.
