File Room Space Problems - Susan's Story

“We were covered up with paperwork and our packed shelves made filing a nightmare. I didn't see any way out. Our shelves were so tight the file folders were getting damaged when we tried re-filing. The new shelves filled as quickly as they were installed. Our problems kept getting worse - we shifted records over and over to stay within our filing system. We even moved boxes into open cubicles and around the meeting room. And finally we were completely out of space. We wasted hours searching for misplaced documents.

“I thought I'd just have to live with it, but EDCO diagnosed the root of our problems. They really understood my department. Their File Room Analysis showed problems I didn't even realize. They analyzed digit consistency, performed a sample pull and calculated our annual growth.

“We devised a way to help administration understand the impact that growth was having on our department and the poor use of employees’ time. They agreed to let us convert enough records to start the year with the space required to handle growth.

“Our productivity is back up and we have breathing room again.”
