Outside Storage Is a Real Cost Saver

Article Abstract:

The cost of replacing critical information can be high. One master tape can cost $4000 (Australia). Off-site storage, such as the Guardian store in Sydney, Australia, is one kind of safeguard. Documents are stored in sealed and coded boxes in C level areas with closed circuit TV surveillance, an alarm system, and a fire protection system. Class B, designed for tapes and microfilm, provides a safe with fire and water protection. For irreplaceable records, Class A provides Chubb safes guaranteed to hold the temperature below 125 degrees and to resist break-ins and explosions.

Forms Management Can Be a Real Office Money-Saver

Article Abstract:

Companies lose money by not analyzing their use of forms. To determine costs, the company's forms should be classified by specifications and use. Forms design reflects the company's image and can increase efficiency. Some forms can be integrated under one design. Forms-supply management includes keeping inventories and scheduling large print runs to save costs. Records of distribution should be maintained. Moore Paragon, the world's largest forms manufacturer, has developed a national forms management procedure.
