How digital transformation revolutionizing the way we go about our daily work lives and even saving lives.

Digital transformation sounds magical. But what exactly is it?

While we believe digital transformation is out-of-this-world, there’s a lot more to it. Let’s take a closer look at what digital transformation is and how it can revolutionize your company’s records management.

Defining digital transformation

In essence, digital transformation is the process of adopting digital technology to fundamentally change business operations. More than anything, it asks companies to “reimagine business” using digital tools. 

Digital transformation comes in several shapes and sizes. The shift from printed materials to digital ones is a good example. At work, email and online systems have revamped how we get work done, too.

However, there’s one area in which companies lag behind: paper trails.

Records management made easy

Records management is a key part of digital transformation. By converting paperwork to the cloud, you’ll have everything you need in one secure spot online. 

Document management has traditionally taken place in filing cabinets and on clipboards. As we know well, this type of records management is unsustainable as the world becomes increasingly digital. 

Having a digital records system is a lifesaver. With it, you can access paperwork remotely, collaborate in real-time, instantly search docs and more. Basically you’ll save a ton of time and become more productive at work. 

Digital transformation in practice

Digital documentation is a win-win for every industry. One excellent example of this is in healthcare, specifically electronic medical records (EMR) management and digital storage. 

When clinics and hospitals decide to convert to the cloud, they’re more effectively able to save lives. Instead of digging up paperwork in storage systems, they’re able to share medical records instantly and across other healthcare professionals looking after a single patient. In emergency situations, getting immediate access to a patient’s medical record could make the difference in getting adequate, accurate, and quicker diagnoses along with treatments.  

Digital document management is already transforming workflow and productivity across the world. Do you dare to join the digital records revolution?
