How do I manage the transition from paper filing to digital while using a lateral file cabinet?

The paper-to-digital transition is a document lifecycle management exercise that OfficeFurniture2go.com addresses with clients who are rethinking their physical filing infrastructure. The strategic sequence: audit current filing volume, categorize by retention requirement (active vs. inactive vs. legally required originals), digitize the active tier first for the highest operational benefit, and maintain physical filing capacity only for documents that legally require paper originals. Lateral file cabinets remain relevant throughout this transition and post-transition for legally retained originals — the goal is right-sizing, not elimination. We help clients plan the right filing footprint for a hybrid physical/digital document environment. Call 1-800-460-0858.
