According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics 20% of small to medium size businesses suffer a major disaster every five years? Physical media and electronic data must be protected and easily retrieved in the case of a natural disaster, equipment failure, or many other unexpected events that can occur for the continuation of business.

Not having data backup and media storage can dramatically compromise the survival of a company if calamity strikes. In fact 43% of company’s that experience a disaster never reopen after a disaster and 29% close within the next xx years due to their failure to have a disaster recovery plan that includes the off-site storage of mission critical data. Information losses can happen because of natural disasters, theft, equipment failure, employee wrongdoing, file corruption and more. If information is lost, business cannot continue as usual without the data. Financial losses occur, and compliance with regulations may be broken. If legal action occurs, data cannot be recovered for subpoena including documents, email, electronic messages.

All businesses must plan for the unexpected, and many are not prepared in the case of a calamity to restore critical data. To protect against the unexpected it is imperative that a company, regardless of size, have a disaster recovery plan that provides for professional media storage and data backup to insure business continuity and to meet regulatory demands in the event of the unexpected. Further it is not sufficient to simply have data copied. Additionally, the data must be stored offsite in an environment that protects the media from theft and damage and there must be a plan that makes the necessary equipment available so the data and applications can be restored and the company can continue to operate.

Data needs to be protected by an expert disaster recovery plan with a company that can guarantee the recovery if the unexpected happens. All types of physical media including tapes, disks, reels, and CD-ROMS should be stored in state of the art facilities, such as a Firelock Vault that meets or exceeds all of the ANSI standards for the protection of company critical data.

There are many companies who recognize the importance of proper media storage and data backup and reduce risk in innovative and secure ways for their clients. They increase operational efficiency and enhance safety and security through their records management and retrieval systems, including storage for both physical media and electronic file vaults.

When you need service parts for your critical office printers, you want the right product, and you want it right away. A printer parts vendor must be a trusted seller offering quality products at competitive prices. Look for a vendor with inventory expertise, process knowledge, and outstanding customer service.

There are countless current printer parts available, but in addition, there are previous generations, withdrawn models, and new models coming onto the market all of the time. A parts vendor must be an expert on the entire inventory available, as well as having an awareness of repair and maintenance schedules. This allows them to communicate with you effectively. Vendors should also offer a large in stock inventory in order to access products promptly, and deliver them quickly and within your budget.

When a vendor is an expert in the operations process, it translates into efficiency and reduced cost. A dealer should use online technologies that allow for searches for products, real time ordering and tracking, web quotes, automated returns, and communications. The right products are shipped without delay, as well as returns and communication handled quickly with experienced process experts.

It is imperative to use a printer parts vendor with excellent customer service. A seller should be immediately responsive to calls, emails, live chat and instant messages, and help you find the right product solutions at a great price. Service should be courteous, friendly, and professional.

Keeping your stored business records accessible and organized is a necessity for efficient business processes. If records management is not done competently, it leaves your company vulnerable to risk and decreased productivity. A business needs to have a records management solution that has records controlled with an easily updated online system and tracking capabilities. Good communication with a professional vendor also adds to successful records management solutions.

There are recommendations on how to keep records inventory healthy including using an online, updateable inventory management system, and creating a retention schedule that can be controlled by the system. The schedule is used for the management of on site and off site records. Records should be moved and disposed of according to the schedule, and keeping the records management system structured is mandatory for the system to work. The retention schedule can be automatically calculated to assure compliance with regulatory mandates.

The on site and off site inventory should be checked periodically online. If boxes are currently in stock, find out where they were last tracked to allow for search capabilities of every box and file in the system. Tracking the movement of every box is important to the safety and proper storage of your records, and the location information should also be accessible to you, the client. Verification of destroyed records is the next step in your inventory check.

Your records storage management vendor should actively improve their records management system. Choose a professional vendor with online custom systems available that can be managed from your desktop. Having electronic access also has the convenience for the user to order storage supplies and arrange for delivery and pick up from the vendor. There must be active participation during the process with your vendor, and it is important to read contracts and communications from the vendor in reference to services and fees.
