Currently ADEM Mobile Services Company spends approximately $650,000 annually in office and ink supplies for the sales transactions conducted. The sales process takes approximately 35 minutes per customer, of which approximately 5 minutes are spent on printing, photocopying, and signing the sales agreements. Due to the high volume of transactions, the store managers and salespersons want to reduce the transaction time. Mike Olsen, the sales department manager, submitted to ADEM Mobile Services Company Project Management Office a business case explaining the need for the paperless system. Andrs Adorno, who is the Project Manager Officer, accepted the business case to be part of the projects to be undertaken as part of this year's initiatives. Mike Olsen identified from his budget, $750,000 for the design and implementation of the system that should be in place in 12 months saving the company an average of $350,000 annually. The salespersons are requesting that the paperless system has a scanner to scan and electronically archived the customer id and any other documentation. In addition, the store managers are requesting to do a pilot test in one location prior implementing the system in all the stores and to not implement the system around the high season, which begins from Black Friday through January 6 Background [Why is the project being undertaken?
