One of my goals with the GRM Document Storage Blog is to highlight all of the services document management centers provide that you may not already know about. There's literally dozens of reasons for businesses large and small to invest in an off-site document management program, and you can find a fairly comprehensive list of all of them at GRM's website. Our Fact Sheet page provides potential customers with a no-frills run down of all the services we offer. If you own or manage a company in the NY Tri-State, be sure to check out what we can do for your business.

UK Urges Document Management as way to Go Green

I just finished reading a great article in Real FD, a British magazine geared towards financial decision makers in the UK. The article discusses at length Government and private companies desire to shift to greener operations, and how document management services is the ideal solution to many of the issues they face. The article highlights particularly well the usefulness of a document management program as a solution for cutting back on the need for printed documents in the modern office. I found this quote to be extremely poignant to what GRM can offer businesses here in the United States:

"Document management systems are therefore the key to achieving carbon neutrality by 2012. These systems replace the printing-out, postage and manual filing of documents with electronic processes for document creation, delivery, authorisation, management and storage. By moving to electronic document management systems, organisations reduce paper-use and significantly cut CO2 emissions by eliminating toner cartridges whilst also reducing the need to print, photocopy and transport documents."

To read the rest of the article, follow the link I've created at the top of this post.

Risks Larger Than Ever for Unprotected Companies

A report by English based research firm Butler Group pointed out the many risks of a modern company without a data protection and disaster recovery plan in place. The study points out some very significant points, including that not employing a document management center to protect critical data leaves businesses open to both a total information meltdown in the case of a natural disaster and also increases risk of lawsuit due to lost or poorly handled document management practices in house. If you own or operate a business that currently goes without data protection and a disaster recovery plan, have a look at the options GRM has to offer. You may regret not doing so down the line.

Many of GRM's largest clients are New York Tri-state based legal firms.
