It makes business sense to combine good record management principles with creative space planning during a move or relocation.
Space is a finite element.
Accurate filing and fast access to the files go hand in hand. During a move or relocation it also makes good business sense to enhance the way files are retrieved from the filing system to decrease the time it takes to find a file. Presently most organizations utilize a drop filing method . This method, although widely used, is a tremendous waste of space and does not provide quick access to the files. The more efficient means of filing is the lateral method , where the folders are placed into a shelf or storage device with the folders standing laterally.
