What a waste of paper

What is the largest vendors statement that you might have prepared? We have recently completed a job at a suburb called Waterways and the vendors statement was 430 pages.

This is probably not a record, but when the agent wants 6 copies, no-one wants the responsibility to print the document. Lets see now, 6 copies time 430 pages equals 2580.

As an industry is there support for a standard to create and distribute the section 32 electronically (and still satisfy the legal requirementsof the vendor signing / purchaser acknowledging receipt)?

Is anyone prepared to comment?
