What Are Paper Files Costing You?

What Are Paper Files Costing You?

If you are considering having your documents, files, or charts scanned, you must be realizing that there are some very real costs of keeping all that paper.  You must be wondering if there is a cost savings to scanning your backlog.  Here are some interesting statistics that should help you make the decision to scan (from research conducted by the Gartner Group, 2009):

The average company spends –

• $20 to file a document

• $120 to find a misfiled document

• $220 to reproduce a lost document

Meanwhile, 7.5 percent of all documents get lost, 3 percent get misfiled, and the average professional spends 50 percent of their time looking for information.
