IT has provided the opportunities for governments to remodel the entire process of tax collection over the last decade. It is, however, a continuously evolving process and governments the world over need to constantly upgrade their tax systems to optimise their revenue workflows.
A recent SAP study confirmed that those organisations which adopt best practices in the areas of scope and adoption, process standardisation, technology and customer governance, do perform better, and do so as their best practice maturity increases.
The advent of social media has seen governments hopping onto the bandwagon in a bid to further engage citizens.

Driven by the realisation that climate change is an issue that businesses can, and should, mitigate, commercial and government organisations alike are under pressure to ‘go green’.
Yet, for economic entities, it is equally important that any initiative, including green ones, undertaken must demonstrate business benefits. The good news is that industry surveys show that organisations are indeed deriving tangible returns from their efforts in terms of reduced cost through better managed operations, optimised utilisation of IT assets, reduced energy costs, and a socially responsible corporate image.
The role of Document Management
Document management plays a huge and critical role in today’s information economy, and greening this aspect of the office not only addresses a major component of business infrastructure, but lets organisations achieve effective knowledge management. Towards these ends, Fuji Xerox’s efforts ensure that its products feature environmentally responsible design and energy efficient enhancements such as document management software and digital technologies that help to reduce paper wastage; and services that enable clients to improve the efficiency of document intensive business processes and optimise their equipment infrastructure to save costs and cut carbon emissions.
Innovating for the environment
Effective management and use of organisational knowledge drives efficiency, innovation, profitability and longevity – key pillars of business sustainability. Fuji Xerox’s practices of environmental conservation have fostered an organisation where products are designed so that users can rest assured they are not just participating in long term goals of sustainable development, but that they can achieve significantly higher levels of productivity and efficiency, with lower total costs of ownership.
In a continuous effort to fulfill its social responsibility, Fuji Xerox has been making their products more ecologically friendly. As Fuji Xerox engineers its way to produce more ecological friendly devices, their strategy to stay green has produced devices that are energy saving, and easy to use, while increasing productivity and durability. Fuji Xerox Multifunction devices and printers have won the Energy Conservation Grand Prize presented by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan for 10 consecutive years, which is the first time in the industry. The new generation MFDs is our effort, our essence and our commitment to a greener environment. Go Ecological with Fuji Xerox.
