A eFileCabinet Case Study
North Carolina Mutual Wholesale Drug Company, a full-line wholesale distributor serving more than 600 pharmacies with roughly 23,000 products and 1,000 vendors, faced a massive paper problem in Accounts Payable — maintaining 25 five-drawer file cabinets for a single year of invoices and legally required seven years of records stored on pallets in a warehouse. The volume made retrieval slow and year-end archiving labor intensive, so they evaluated paperless providers and selected eFileCabinet for its workflow ease and implementation support.
eFileCabinet worked with NC Mutual to set up templates and electronic cabinets, and the user‑friendly document management system was adopted quickly. The result: dramatic space reduction (freeing warehouse space now used for product instead of paper), measurable cost savings (the company had been using over a pallet of paper per month), much faster one‑click invoice retrieval versus hours searching, elimination of year‑end archiving and shred projects, and improved audit readiness and cross‑department access — all enabled by eFileCabinet.
