Sector embraces archiving help
A SMART space-saving solution to storing documents is helping clean up the education sector’s archiving problems.
The patented storage system made in Australia by Archive Management has received an overwhelming response since the company focused on becoming an education specialist over the past five years.
“Our system can store double the paperwork using the same space when compared with traditional boxes on shelves, so it’s a compelling solution,” Archive Management director Duncan Macmillan said.
Mr Macmillan said their growth in the sector has meant the company has been able to continually tailor its services to the needs of education providers, now making up approximately half of the company’s total activity.
“There’s been a natural demand for our services in education over the past 30 years, but we’ve been thrilled by the response as we started engaging directly with our school customers,” he said.
Mr Macmillan believes that Archive Management’s core offering, an efficient system of super-strong stackable front-opening boxes, is a natural fit for the industry.
“The sector faces paper storage problems like anyone else - there’s a requirement to keep important records at hand and access them easily when they’re needed, but space is at a premium,” he said.
Another strong drawcard has been the installation and document migration services provided.
“So many schools don’t have the time or labour to tidy up and properly catalogue their mounting archives - it’s a headache we can take away,” he said.
