Jon Dee Launches Paper-Less Alliance

[Gruden]

Today marks the launch of the Paper-Less Alliance, a Do Something! initiative*instigated by*Planet Ark founders Jon Dee, Pat Cash & Tina Jackson.

“We’re calling on businesses to make a bigger effort in switching their customers and suppliers to electronic billing,” said Jon Dee, the Founder of Do Something. “Emailing bills and invoices instead of posting them is just one way businesses can save money as well as the environment.”Going electronic is common sense.

Getting customers to fill in electronic forms is far more efficient and cost effective than getting them to fill in paper-based forms. Storing your documents electronically is also much more effective and cheaper than storing them on paper in warehouses. Searching for bills electronically is also far quicker than searching for them in a lever arch file.

*The aims of the Paper-Less Alliance are to:

• educate Australian businesses about the efficiency and cost-saving benefits of reducing their paper use
• significantly reduce the postage bills of Australia’s businesses
• provide solutions, tools and advice that enable businesses to help the environment and their bottom line
• recruit thousands of Australian businesses of all types to go ‘Paper-Less’
• reduce the use of office paper by 20% within 5 years
• maximise the amount of office paper being recycled

Gruden is proud to be*one of the founding partners of the Paper-Less Alliance and the Do Something! campaign initiatives. Check out more about this campaign via the Paper-Less Alliance website, designed and developed by Gruden utilising Sitecore CMS, which celebrated its official launch today.

While many organisations have started using recycled paper and, in turn, recycling the paper they use, reducing consumption is the most effective way to go green and minimise demand on limited resources. Adobe provides a number of solutions that deliver cost, efficiency and environmental benefits through software such as Adobe Acrobat and Adobe LiveCycle ES.
