Managing the Hybrid Environment
Are you finding managing electronic and paper records in the same environment to be a challenge? You aren’t the only one.
The increasing emphasis on electronic records in our field is undeniable. A recent Jeter survey found that over half of the respondents had replaced at least 20% of their files with electronic records, at a time when paper record volumes continue to grow.
In the same survey, 20% of organizations reported that over 60% of their record collections were a hybrid between paper and electronic records.
This hybrid environment is creating a two-headed beast that presents new records management challenges, and Jeter can help you meet them.
The Right Program
The key to handling the hybrid environment lies in developing a comprehensive records management program that will help your organization thrive in both the paper and electronic worlds, bringing the two together in one value add for your organization’s business.
