BSU is going paperless
Throughout the institution, multiplying paperwork is creating institutional ineffectiveness in storage space, productivity and accessibility. In order to create a more efficient method and expedite access to documents, Vice President for Administration and Finance (VPAF) has decided to implement a paper-less solution. Therefore, VPAF will be implementing an image document system that will capture and organize documents. This system will be integrated with our PeopleSoft system. The first phase of implementation will include Auxiliary Services, Budget Office, Department of Public Safety, Controller’s Office, Facilities Management, Human Resources, Procurement Services, Peoplesoft, Telecommuting, Office of the President, Office of the Provost and Office of the Vice President of Administration and Finance.
