But why not? The fact is that the technology has evolved so much that it’s achievable by almost any vertical. The machines, from scanners to shredders, even to computers themselves, are affordable and easy to use, so there should be no excuse for not implementing it.
However, those who pan the possibility of a paperless office note that employees themselves are always going to want to touch some of their documents. That might not be true though – chances are very good that they don’t want to waste countless hours thumbing through ugly, bulky filing cabinets or stand aimlessly around whirring machines waiting for printers to spit out a file.
So, what are the individual documents critics claim workers will need to physically handle? In other words, what’s preventing the paperless office?
This concept is questionable to begin with. In an interview with TechRadar Pro, Oki Printing Solutions Manager Andrew Hall suggested that emails are just one of many files workers want to actually touch, making a paperless company very unlikely.
To almost anyone who communicates via email for work, this is borderline preposterous. The beauty of email is that it doesn’t need to be made tangible at all – the messages can be forwarded to the right party, the digital platform provides a record of communications, and it’s simply hard to lose messages. These advantages showcase exactly why a business should invest in document management software.
Contracts, invoices, sensitive documents – aren’t these materials that should be left in filing cabinets so nearly anyone can have access to them? If company leaders answer “no” to this question, they’ve just realized one of the biggest reasons why they should go paperless.
As Forbes noted, digitized documents have much higher security capabilities. Not only does this platform make it easy to ensure the files would be saved in the event of a disaster, but administrators could keep them safe from attack by requiring multi-factor authentication and leveraging encryption.
Rather than relying on sticky notes or scraps of paper, new technologies make it easier and more efficient for workers to leave themselves reminders. An added bonus, it’s also a more environmentally conscious move. From “notepad” like programs on desktops to memo apps on smartphones or tablets, employees can tap into new opportunities, rather than harping on a paper-full office.
Automated workflows empower your team to focus on larger, more complex initiatives without having to think about small processes.
Many organizations start with manual receipt handling, fragmented card feeds and slow AP processes. Implement AI agents to auto-capture receipts, route approvals, enable punch-out buys and post to the ERP.
Result: faster batching, fewer errors and cost savings. “This saves us hours every month.”
Many organizations face slow, paper-heavy AP and fragmented procurement that waste time and inflate costs. AI Agents can automate approvals, PO matching and record sync to improve speed, accuracy and control. Client quote: “It freed up hours and made our process reliable.”
Operational drag and rising costs slow growth: teams waste time on manual tasks, misaligned priorities and opaque processes. AI Agents help automate routine work and coordinate actions across teams. “We’ve lost time to repeats and handoffs,” says a typical client.
Companies struggle with manual procurement, fragmented approvals, and costly integrations that slow growth and obscure spend. Our AI Agents streamline requisitions, POs, and invoice matching to cut manual work and improve visibility. “We were wasting time and missing insights,” says a client.
Many teams start with fragmented PO/AP systems, manual matching and delayed financial reporting. Deploying AI agents to automate PO checks, real-time encumbrance tracking and invoice matching reduces processing time and errors, delivering live budgets and faster closes. “Finally, we can see current balances and approve instantly.”
Many companies juggle growing invoice volumes and legacy systems. They struggle with manual processes, compliance gaps and limited headcount. Our AI Agents automate integrations, enforce rules and surface exceptions. The typical outcome: faster closes and measurable ROI. “We stopped chasing invoices.”
