I converted to a paperless office while provisioning frame-relay circuits a dozen years ago.
It was very effective.
Produced a little over 3 standard workloads (my employer got to bill for the work of 3 people) while only having to do about 2-3 hours of real work each day.
Ironically, my "system" was more robust than those who still used paper; didn't lose time working or lose data when servers crashed (paper pushers did).
Even more ironic was that the benefits were unintentional.
I developed it in a spirit of recalcitrance.
A vague directive came down requiring us to keep all "important" paperwork for one year.
Developed the paperless system, shredded files before enforcement began, and never printed anything ever again.
