This blog post is the fourth of a 4-part series that describes how to hire the right document management company in Ontario.

Is your vendor candidate a good corporate citizen?

Good corporate citizenship is an important consideration in vendor selection. But it’s often overlooked or not weighted as importantly as it should be. “Going Green,” for example, should not be the latest marketing mantra. It should be a pervasive philosophy throughout a document management company’s organization.

The very nature of document management preserves precious resources. Eliminating paper processes throughout the organization, reducing transportation of paper from one location to another, and removing paper storage containers and facilities all contribute to more responsible environmental stewardship.

But a document management company in Ontario should take environmental and good corporate citizenship a step further. The company’s dedication should be clear by its internal programs, community involvement and participation in recognized sustainability organizations.

As with all business decisions, do your homework thoroughly by carefully evaluating each document management company in Ontario, you’ll likely select a true partner who understands your requirements and delivers business-enhancing results. And that peace-of-mind is priceless.
