Most companies pay less attention to file and record systems than other areas of their business because filing systems are viewed as a cost and not an income-generating business function (View File Storage Systems Images). But taking a closer look at Reducing Office Costs with revenue generating File Storage Systems may reveal some substantial opportunities to generate revenues while reducing your overhead operating costs.

- Ways to increase productivity and eliminate misfiles
- Regularly scheduled purges of inactive files from the active filing system
- Researched open shelf side tab color-coded file shelving versus a top tab file cabinets
- Examined security of files and information from unauthorized access
- Surveyed users for ways to improve the filing system
