The Real Statistics
90% of corporate memory exists on paper.
Companies spend $20 in labor to file a document, $120 in labor to find a misfiled document, and $220 in labor to
reproduce a lost document.
7.5% of all documents get lost, 3% of the remainder get misfiled.
Managers spend an average of 4 weeks a year searching for or waiting on misfiled,mislabeled, untracked or lost
information.
Office workers can waste up to 2 hours a day looking for misplaced paperwork.
All of these documents, forms, etc. found in your employee files come from
“somewhere”
• Paper forms• Faxes• Emails• Reports, etc.

How It Really Works…
• Manual processes and operational bottlenecks that increase costs
• Slow response time and customer dissatisfaction that can affect operations
• Compliance and litigation risk
• Document storage and retrieval costs
From a Paper Problem…
Document files are growing at 20% annually
5% of all documents are filed incorrectly, even with the best records management
Professionals spend over 150 hours annually looking for incorrectly-filed documents
Professionals spend over 500 hours reviewing and routing files
