over the different ways in which the companies can go paperless using modern day
technologies. The environmental aspect of turning paperless is also essential especially
looking at the way deforestation and climatic conditions have resulted into alarming
environmental situations. Technological advancement and such improvisation poses severe
challenges in the aspect of investment by the company besides the cost on training as well as
equipment.

Email is the most crucial tool of communication for the past couple of decades
between individuals and among groups, as well. It is inexpensive and simple to use. Over the
years, these forms of communication have evolved into live chats, video conference systems
and voice over IP (Internet Protocol), facilitated by modern technologies such as smartphones
and iPads (King & Toland, 2014). Use of this form of communication may exist in between
supplier-employee, employee-employee and an employee-consumer.

and plan future sales, expenses and productivity. Use of this information, maximizes profit,
minimizes cost and saves time. Information helps improve companies as well. Managers can
track sale in real time and can react immediately to low sale numbers and boost employee
productivity and lower costs without loss of ideas and innovation concepts (Simard, Levin &
Prately, 2014).

redistributed among the employees, improve workplace condition, and invest further into the
company. Moreover, since computer will automate everything and vast reduction of human
error. Digital information is also easier to access from anywhere in the world hence
individuals can operate from anywhere in the world. Data can be accessed real time to solve
discrepancies. Moreover, security of data enhances when they are stored in offsite servers and
storage devices. Paper reports do not address company growth as effective as Digital
dashboards. Creation of a well-structured and cohesive office environment reflects through
such attempts (Alenazi et al., 2014). They also bridge the gap between data and valuable
insights that are crucial for the company’s future. The ability to use such devices or software
needs proper training and education among employees, which shall add to the benefit of the
company in the future. This will also help the individual to grow and adapt based on modern
requirements of technology in every sphere. Wear and tear or damage of paper documents are
