Cost Analysis
Start with the number of forms your business
goes through—both issued and thrown
away unused—in a year, and the enormity
of the cost savings you can realize with our
Forms Solution becomes clear.
• Forms represent about 83% of all business
documents. The typical global enterprise
uses 400 complex business forms on
average—any of which are suitable for
process improvement.
1
• 15% to 33% of pre-printed material is either
thrown away due to processing errors or
simply because it’s out of date. E-forms can
be amended or updated virtually on the fly.
1
• One single-page, pre-printed 8.5" x 11"
form (black & white) costs about $0.017,
compared to $0.006 for an e-form printed
on a sheet of cut paper—a $0.011 per-page
advantage.
1
• With multi-part forms the cost advantage
is even greater for e-forms, since blank
pre-printed, multi-part forms usually range
from $0.06 to $1.25 apiece.
1
• The average processing costs for an
electronic invoice is $0.36, compared with
$1.26 for a paper invoice—a cost advantage
for e-forms of $0.90 per form.
2
• The typical costs for processing a
pre-printed multi-part form
2
are:
Distribution $0.05–0.15
Pre-processing 0.08–0.25
Error correction 0.20–0.50
Data entry 0.15–0.30
Storage or scanning 0.12–0.30
TOTAL $0.60–1.60
• Total fully-burdened cost
2
of:
Filing a paper document $20.
Finding a misfiled document $120.
Reproducing a lost document $220.
• Additional reasons to consider e-forms:
2
– 3% of filed paper documents are
filed incorrectly
– 7.5% of paper documents will be lost
by the time they need to be retrieved
– 90% of all the time spent dealing with
paper documents involves merely
handling or shuffling them as opposed
to actually working with them
• Here is an example of the potential savings
accrued by using the integrated e-forms
solution from OKI Printing Solution rather
than pre-printed forms and dot matrix
printers:
“COMPANY” SCENARIO
– 100 locations; 2 printers each location
– Each location prints 130 2-part forms
per day @ 5% coverage
ASSUMPTIONS
– 20% of pre-printed forms are wasted;
no waste with electronic forms
– Processing the average form is reduced
from $1.26 for a pre-printed form to $.36
for an electronic form
– Costs based on 3 years, include purchase
of equipment
CONCLUSION
Based on the above, this company could
spend up to $10 million
3
over 3 years
using standard multi-part forms—while
the integrated e-forms solution could cost
only $7 million, a $3 million savings!
