Go Green

Paperless Solutions

The last thing your company needs is more paper. Did you know that to file and maintain 500,000 pieces of paper, on average, companies spend an estimated $515,000 in workflow management researching lost files, and paper storage and disposal?

Greg Long, who leads J.P. Morgan's "Go Green" initiative, speaks with Maureen Callahan in the following video from the Alexander Hamilton Awards session on Best Green Strategy.

Turn off the paper waste and turn on the efficiency gains with J.P. Morgan. We offer a variety of tools, strategies and solutions to help your treasury managers review your global operations and migrate quickly to a paperless environment.

At what cost?
If your company received 3,000 paper-based lockbox transactions last month, you could have saved $2,225 — or $0.75 per transaction.

Manual, paper-based receivables processes — returning checks and documentation from lockboxes, entering accounts receivable (A/R) data and resolving exceptions — costs your company thousands of dollars each year. Add off-the-book labor, technology, document storage and process redundancy costs, and the spend skyrockets.

Reengineer your receivables processes with J.P. Morgan to reduce expenses and improve access to global information, collection rates, clearing and funds availability.

E-Check Services — Provide retailers with the ability for their customers to make payments over the telephone or via the Internet.

Healthcare LinkSM — Allow healthcare providers to post electronic and paper payment details into an A/R or practice management system, and automate data-to-payment matching.

Image Cash Letter — Image checks and transmit them electronically for clearing as an image cash letter rather than deposit cash letters and associated original checks.

Image Deposit Direct® — Use our easy-to-adopt desktop scanner to capture checks from any geographic location and transmit the images to a central account or multiple accounts.

Smart Safe — Receive same-day provisional credit while protecting against theft and providing added security for employees and cash.

Virtual RemitSM — Scan and transmit checks, full-page remittance documents, coupons and envelopes from your desktop and electronically send the images to the bank for deposit.

At what cost?
Your monthly disbursement process creates a paper and expense trail that goes far beyond checks. Xerox® estimated that for every dollar spent on printing documents, companies incur another six dollars in handling and distribution. One organization that consumed 32 tons of paper annually calculated that it would save $175,000 per year by simply making payments electronically via ACH or corporate card.

Virtually eliminate paper from your disbursements processes with J.P. Morgan and make the treasury operations of payers and payees more efficient, secure and environmentally sustainable. Our solutions will also help you reduce the costs of check delivery, administrative security and fraud.

At what cost?
It is easy to fall victim to the deluge of paper reports, lockbox details, account analysis, DDA balances, transaction summaries and controlled disbursements. In 2007, U.S. companies printed 1.5 trillion pages — that is a 95,000 mile-high stack of paper, or equivalent of nearly 20 million trees.
