Though enterprises across the world are moving towards digitization, physical documents still prevail and cannot be avoided. File storage is a common task for people, businesses, government agencies around the globe, however, organized preservation with safety and ease of retrieval from the archival space is an ongoing challenge. Business challenges:
are those that are currently being used in the business and they should be readily accessible to all.
should be moved out of work areas into storage dedicated to inactive files – on or offsite.
are those that are inactive but have value. They require highest amount of care and preservation.
Files must be stored in a controlled environment (humidity, temperature), free from dust, pest, light, etc. File storage must be handed to trusted authority as tampering, misplaced or loss of files could lead to detrimental business effects.
