Home Office Organizing

For many, a home office space is essential when working from home, managing household paperwork or completing homework. It can also be a magnet for piles of paper where important documents are routinely lost. If you can’t see your desktop, let’s clean sweep your office! We will put systems in place to meet your unique needs so you can maintain your office with ease. If you are setting up a home office for the first time or refreshing your space, we can also help with layout and furniture selection.

Home Office Paperwork

We’ll create customized systems tailored to your needs to manage both streams of paperwork, making it easy to maintain an efficient and clutter-free workspace. By minimizing distractions and ensuring everything is easy to find, you’ll enjoy greater productivity and focus.

CORPORATE WORKSPACES

Offices & Workstations

Offices & Workstations

An organized corporate workspace boosts productivity, reduces distractions and enhances focus. We create customized systems tailored to employees’ unique work styles, making it easy to find what they need. By decluttering workstations, desk drawers and storage areas, we develop streamlined processes that foster efficiency and keep employees focused on achieving their goals.

Storage Areas

Storage Areas

Well organized supply cabinets and storage areas will make it easier for employees to find items when they need them and make it obvious when inventory levels are low. Working as part of your team, we will purge all unnecessary items, develop a storage plan, and reorganize the space using suitable containers and clear labelling. When the project is complete, we will provide orientation so that employees are familiar with the new system.

Annual Office Cleanup Day

Annual Office Cleanup Day

During a company-wide or department “Annual Office Cleanup Day”, we work together with employees to organize, clean and sanitize their workspace including desks, drawers, paperwork and common areas. The day includes an organizing session with each employee, two group presentations, a catered lunch, and a follow-up report with recommendations. As a team building activity, this event will foster collaboration, boost productivity and maximize resources. At the beginning or end of a year, or in preparation for an office relocation, this event is a must for any organization!

A well organized filing system will save time, making it easier to find, file and discard information. Working together, we will quickly process paperwork using the File-Act-Toss method. We will teach employees how to prioritize action items and, through identifying meaningful categories, we will set up a customized filing system for quick filing and retrieval. Ideally, computer files will mirror paper files. After archiving old information, we will structure file directories and develop standardized file naming methods that make sense.

Records Management

Records Management

80% of papers that we keep are never referred to again.

The goal of records management is to keep information flowing through the organization. Using the Lifecycle of Records, we will develop and document retention guidelines to move information from creation through to destruction. A reliable system will save filing and retrieval time, increase productivity, reduce storage costs and space, simplify decision-making and protect vital records. By working as part of your team, we will develop clear records retention guidelines that incorporate existing policies, legal requirements and staff needs.

Our Reviews

“Elaine tackled 30 years of corporate records and operational paperwork with ease and a firm resolve to bring order. Before she left on her first day, I had already experienced my first success… It was a huge task. Elaine helped bring systems to our office that are now consistent and transferable to new staff. My only regret is that I did not hire her many, many years ago.”

“Organized Solutions helped me to take my office organization to another level. The organizer encouraged me to clear out unnecessary items throughout my office and in my computer! In addition, she redesigned my furniture layout, which really opened up my office space. Working with Organized Solutions was fun and very productive. It’s so much easier to keep my offices – at home and at work – neat and organized. I highly recommend their services!”

“Organized Solutions has brought much-needed order to our firm’s electronic and paper information management systems. The public relations and marketing business is document-driven, and managing both electronic and paper files in an effective and logical manner is critical to keeping client information from getting misplaced or lost. Our information management system used to be overwhelmed, outdated and ineffective. Today, our files are current, easily accessible, and have been purged of irrelevant documents. Organized Solution has positively affected our time management and our bottom line.”
