PAPERLESS OFFICE VIA BUSINESS PROCESS AUTOMATION
Thousands of years ago “Paper” was considered to be a significant invention.
Every office is in need of paper for filing, issuing, storing, documenting and much more. Performing daily office chores sans paper sounds daunting.
In simple terms, carrying on transactions and surviving without paper is impossible. Over the period maintenance and requirement for paper has increased to such an extent that paper instead of becoming bliss has ruined the profits of organizations.
Seven major drawbacks of using paper
- Harmful to the environment, as mostly, it is made from the bark of trees, to meet the demand of paper one has to cut trees which leads to deforestation
- Expensive
- Cannot be stored permanently
- More storage space is required
- Possibility of getting damaged is more
- Retrieval of documents is a challenge
- Recycle of paper involves use of harmful chemicals which later are released into water bodies leading to water pollution
But soon, the invention of computers and advancement in technology brought a revolutionary change in the organizational functionality.
Through automation of various business processes, organizations can reduce the utilization of paper thus making a paperless office.
Business process automation by definition is a process through which paper gets replaced by “Electronic Storage Media”, Introduction of a proper workflow eliminates human intervention considerably, and data manipulation is done using high-end computers.
Every organization requires an infrastructure to expand its business, and it’s employees need an application software to carry on their work either at office premises or in the cloud. Also, every department will have a different format of storing and manipulating data. As an example, a web application developer will need a platform which suits his requirement, whereas this same platform might not be useful for employees in the sales department.
To satisfy the requirements discussed above, we need massive investment in hardware like servers, space for installation, a cooling process, timely upgrades, compatibility with hardware and need to keep complicated software which is not a bed of roses.
Small and emerging companies might have to think twice before they start business operations as they may face a shortage of capital.
