National Office Systems (NOS) announces contract with Able Moving & Storage to provide RFID technology for its corporate relocations

"Finding new markets for the same technologies that are driving the document efficiency revolution is key to survival in this industry," says NOS Principal and Co-owner Joseph Alvarez, "and we commend Able for taking this forward step on behalf of its customers."

NOS is currently considered the Mid-Atlantic frontrunner in the document storage solutions business. When Alvarez and his partner purchased the company in 1991 it had 5 employees. With 125 employees and strong national presence, NOS not only has an interest in every conventional aspect of the industry, but has made a name for itself in specialty storage and storage architecture as well.

Understanding the eventual need for RFID applications that would embrace historical barcode technology, NOS purchased a software company that has essentially allowed them to pioneer programs to combine the two. "The ability to quickly roll out industry-specific software for new clients has helped us to stay ahead of most of our competition, so identifying a new compatible use is of real value to us," says Alvarez.

Whether assets are in transit or in storage, facility executives that contract with Able will be able to use the NOS software to instantaneously inventory the entirety of these holdings, including photographic data.

NOS endorses a practice of encouraging clients to identify the return on investment it will recapture from the employment of any of its products. RFID tracking assets for a moving company will cut down on labor costs. Digitizing documents for a law firm will eliminate costly square footage. Maintaining a chain of custody for important legal documents or evidence in a law enforcement case will curb needless procedural redundancies.
