TAB SMART (Streamline. Manage. Access. Retain. Toss.)

Reduce your storage costs. Improve access to your information. Minimize your exposure to risk. Storage costs of unnecessary and inactive records represent a significant portion of a records management budget. TAB can help you minimize these costs by ensuring that only the most essential records are maintained and easily accessible.

Be TAB SMART

Our TAB SMART (Streamline. Manage. Access. Retain. Toss.) program helps your organization reduce the amount of material it retains, and leads to lower costs for both on and off-site storage. We’ll take your employees through a process of reviewing their records and determining which ones are not essential. By eliminating non-essential documents, both paper and electronic, we will help you decrease storage costs and increase employee productivity. Streamlining the information available to employees improves retrieval time and access to your records.

	Educating employees as to what is record vs. non-record material.
	Coordinating areas to accept materials that can be thrown out or recycled, centralized into a common filing area, or sent to inactive storage.
	Setting up a specific time to have all employees within a department or division to participate in a cleanup of their offices and central filing areas.
	TAB professionals aid your employees in determining what material should be kept for record purposes.

Reduce storage costs
TAB SMART helps you eliminate redundant and unnecessary information. Active records are separated from inactive records and as you only retain the records that are required, you will significantly reduce both the amount of material you retain and storage costs. Plus your employees will become more aware of your records and information management initiatives.
