Every employee who's ever encountered a bulky copy machine, jammed printer or a messy filing cabinet can relate to the frustration that accompanies these outdated monstrosities. As document management software has grown more popular and begun to revolutionize the electronic workflow and productivity of the workplace, more and more of these old machines are being removed from the office and taken to their final resting place. So, what to do with all this free space where the copier used to torture interns and executives alike? Here are some fun ideas about how to convert a copy room to a more productive space while your office enjoys electronic document imaging. A place of relaxation for employees Recent studies indicate that younger employees are enthusiastic about opening up office space and keeping a collaborative environment instead of remaining cooped up in a cubicle. Once the highly teamwork oriented document imaging workflow is put in place and allows fellow staff members to work on the same document, the old copy room could be used as a space to innovate. The Indy Star writer Chris Sikich wrote on this youth phenomenon that stands to save small businesses a lot of money. "Millennials and changes in technology are driving the transformation to a more mobile workforce, say market watchers," he said. "And what's good for workers has been good for the bottom line." Another terrific option for a smaller space could be a recreation room - some of the most successful companies in the world are able to maximize productivity in their workforce by simply encouraging workers to take a break and have some fun every once in a while. According to business blog Team Gantt, these thought leaders provide employees with pool tables, video game consoles and other items that appeal to the inner child in staff members to encourage energy and product innovation in their work. Once your employees enjoy their time in the office and are able to produce quality work efficiently with document management software, the sky's the limit! Space for new employees If your office already has ample room for recreation when the staff don't have their nose to the grindstone, another great option for the space freed up by document management workflow is to use the copying area as a small office for an existing employee or the square footage for an entirely new one. This can cut down the often cramped-feel of the cubicle farm, and may give a solitary employee more opportunity to buckle down and focus on the work at hand. It goes without saying that paperless document management is a fabulous option for any office - it cuts the old equipment and expensive paper costs out of your office and budget, helps the environment and makes for a far more efficient, green workplace.

PAPERLESS DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT FREES UP YOUR OFFICE
SPACE
Every employee who's ever encountered a bulky copy machine, jammed printer or a messy filing
cabinet can relate to the frustration that accompanies these outdated monstrosities. As document
management software has grown more popular and begun to revolutionize the electronic
workflow and productivity of the workplace, more and more of these old machines are being
removed from the office and taken to their final resting place. So, what to do with all this free
space where the copier used to torture interns and executives alike? Here are some fun ideas
about how to convert a copy room to a more productive space while your office enjoys electronic
document imaging.
A place of relaxation for employees
Recent studies indicate that younger employees are enthusiastic about opening up office space
and keeping a collaborative environment instead of remaining cooped up in a cubicle. Once the
highly teamwork oriented document imaging workflow is put in place and allows fellow staff
members to work on the same document, the old copy room could be used as a space to innovate.

It goes without saying that paperless document management is a fabulous option for any office
- it cuts the old equipment and expensive paper costs out of your office and budget, helps the
environment and makes for a far more efficient, green workplace. While every small business will
choose a different way to convert the space that was formerly dedicated to its electronic
oppressors, take comfort in the fact that your employees will be enjoying a higher level
of electronic workflow and satisfaction throughout.
