According to Forbes, 70% of the organizations already had some form of digital transformation in place or in the midst of working towards being one. One of Forbes’ contributors mentioned that “COVID-19 is a before-and-after moment in the history of the economy and the digital transformation”. It has pushed some organizations that are previously not keen or not used to applying digital tools to conduct their daily work processes to now implementing them.

More businesses are transforming and adopting digital tools such as using technology platforms to communicate with their employees. Not neglecting the customers, FORCS offers e-Form solutions to help companies to better engage customers despite in-person meeting restrictions.

By going paperless, businesses can hit an average of 60% in sales efficiency, leading to better and faster customer service.

A study showed that a $5 ream of paper would cost an average business $155 in labor costs to whatever is associated with that amount of paper. Electronic forms’ adoption sees freeing up to 70% of storage capacity and reduced investment in server capacity from using PDF forms. Besides, using PDF can be manual and troublesome to some!
