You have recently been employed with a fortune 500 firm. The world headquarters is an 18-story office building. Two full floors are devoted to nothing more than storing "current" paper reports. (A separate warehouse was maintained outside the city for "archived" reports such as tax documents.) The cost of office space in the headquarters building associated with these paper reports is enormous. Also accessing (locating) these reports is terribly time consuming.
There is a driving force at the firm behind electronic reports, even if users end up printing them. Many firms, after switching to electronic reports, have reduced their storage area to a small room.
Conduct research on electronically storing documents.
Discuss the technology involved and software available.
What types of reports are most suited to electronic format?
What types of reports are less suited to electronic reports?
Provide any additional information that your feel is important.
