Death by a Thousand (Paper) Cuts

In my role as the Account Manager here at Plus, I spend quite a bit of time in the offices of our clients. We have customers in many different sectors, ranging from mining companies, to non-profit organizations, and distributors, just to name a few. Despite the apparent lack of commonality among these businesses, there is one trait that unites them.
Paper 
All these companies print documents, route them to staff for review, escalate them to management for approval, store them in large filing cabinets on the off-chance they will need to be accessed and in many cases transport them to off–site facilities where they will be kept safe until regulatory requirements allow them to be destroyed. Every step in the life cycle of a document I just described saddles these companies with costs, direct or otherwise.
We feel that these costs can be dramatically reduced by deploying a document management solution which integrates directly with the nucleus of your business, Sage 300 ERP (Formerly known as Sage ERP Accpac). This is why we have chosen to partner with Acom Solutions, and have begun to offer document management solutions to our clients. By deploying such a solution you will be able to:
- Improve customer service
- Reduce risks of non-compliance during an audit
- Provide staff with simple, secure access to documents
- Automate key business processes
Over the coming weeks, we will be sharing more information about how document management solutions can provide tangible benefits to your company, but if you’d like to discuss your specific scenario before then, just write me at brian@plus.ca or give our office a call at 604.420.1099
