2. Going green with document scanning services in corporate office is not a new concept, and it has been practiced in many companies for years now. This shift shows that the focus on corporate sustainability has increased dramatically. Sustainability brings a responsibility to avoid the depletion of natural resources in order to maintain an ecological balance. With advancement in technology, automation has taken over sustainability too that leaves factories with the green seal of sustainability, as they consume less energy and they are designed with a standard application profile that allows the plant to turn itself off in unused areas. Cleans solar panel with robots: Solar panels often get ignored when it comes to cleaning plans and some assume that rainfall has a natural cleansing effect. Google analyzed the effect of cleaning solar panels for the first time after 15 months of use. The results were that the energy output doubled overnight, making the experiment worthwhile. Although rain sufficiently washed the ones mounted at an angle, Google cleaned the flat solar panels on a carport. Many companies have engineered robots that can clean the solar panel. These use less water. This shows that solar panels can be cleaned with minimal resources and the technology is supportive for older and disabled people. Minimize waste and risk with automated buildings: Using automation technology in buildings helps to continually check the environment and also identify the various methods of saving the resources such as by automatically turning off the lights after everyone leaves a conference room, or it could keep the thermostat at a temperature that saves energy without sacrificing comfort. Automation ensures a sustainable future: Sustainability is very important for the earth and its inhabitants. The resources are limited and failing to come up with sustainability solutions can lead to disastrous consequences. Some companies are collaborating with experts to develop sustainability solutions that can change the world. The aim is to come up with things that benefit society at large, and not just the companies that may eventually improve business processes with them. For instance, Mitsubishi Electric created an automation contest that happens in various countries and earns support from private corporations and academic institutions alike. Save time and process with automated processes: In agriculture, many indoor farms are largely automated, and they use less water than conventional operations. Likewise, many industries are looking for new opportunities for automation. Manufacturing plants are dependent on automated systems to streamline their www.managedoutsource.com (800) 670 2809

Some believe that this new technology will replace jobs but the truth is this technology frees employees up to do more rewarding work. This means that workers can increasingly use their creativity and expertise to help the business thrive while automated software oversees monotonous tasks. Sustainability automation aims to live and operate in ways that recognize the need for resource conservation and planning for the future. Today a wide range of automated systems and platforms are available for people to begin thinking about how to broaden their viewpoints about what's possible and otherwise adapt to keep sustainability in mind. Automation along with data analytics and IoT will produce torrents of information that will help inform better capital planning, capital utilization and increase profit. So, if your company has not considered sustainability and capital spending and energy and water management trends within your organization, then as a first step, it is time for your company to invest in a document scanning service to convert all data into digital format, and then focus on sustainability. www.managedoutsource.com (800) 670 2809
