Do you lose a full day of work each time the weather turns nasty?

Do you lose a full day of work each time the weather turns nasty?

With the coming storm, Sandy, many employees wonder - "are we working tomorrow?"; but even harder than not knowing, is being the one who makes that call. As the decision maker you must decide between losing a days worth of productivity or worse - potentially putting your employees in harms way. 

But it doesn't have to be this way. Enterprise Content Management (ECM) technology can enable your employees to work from home - and using various means to do it - including  laptops, iPads, iPhones and Android devices. And by setting up self -service, much of your transactional business can still go on - even if the physical office is closed. One example of this is our e-Filing software in Montgomery County, PA. Today the physical courthouse may be closed, but Attorneys and Pro-Se filers around the state are still working - they are still able to file their cases. They won't be losing a day of work.

Need to access files or paperwork? If your employees had scanned the documents into OnBase upon receipt, they could be working on processing those documents from the safety of their homes - by viewing that document inside of your business system. 

Want to know that your employees actually worked when they said that they did? Just look at the audit trail and the managers queue. You can see exactly how much work was completed by each employee. 

But we've forgotten one of the BEST reasons to use an ECM system to prepare for nasty weather - if your office is destroyed, by water, rain, wind, fire - all of your documents are safe and secure.
