Company reaps benefits of going paperless

Duologi, a company specialising in consumer finance has cut its costs and increased the efficiency of its operations, after accepting a challenge to go paperless for the month of July.

The Paperless Challenge is part of a campaign launched by mobile data capture service, WorkMobile, to encourage businesses to reduce their paper usage. It was launched following research by the company that indicated that each worker in the UK uses an average of 45 pieces of paper a day, with two-thirds of that considered waste.

Duoquoi was first business to take on the challenge. To support Duologi throughout the process, WorkMobile provided £500 worth of digital data capture products, along with £500 of expert consultancy.

Since commencing the challenge, Duologi has seen its administrative costs fall, and greater productivity reported by its sales team – which had been reliant paper-based systems to keep track of sales and new business appointments and record information at client meetings. Switching over to WorkMobile’s mobile data capture app, which records everything digitally, enabled Duologi to streamline its processes, resulting in a 40 per cent reduction in admin costs.
