about filing systems consulting

Ron Cox has been in this industry since 1972. He has extensive experience as a salesman, sales management, and, since 1985, as the VP/Co-Owner of Professional Filing Systems, Inc. in San Antonio, TX.

Ron Cox is a Viet Nam combat veteran of the 101st “Screaming Eagles”.  He served with the 101st Military Intelligence Company in 1970 thru 1971.  Most of his tour was spend at Fire Base Rakkasan providing unattended ground sensor support and intelligence. 

Upon return to the states he was hired by the Sperry Remington Office Systems division to sell filing systems and supplies.  Sperry Remington later became Kardex Systems.  In 1975 he moved to San Antonio Tx. as a Government Sales Representation for the local Kardex dealer.  In 1985 he and his wife, Betty, created Professional Filing Systems, Inc.  PFS is a woman owned Texas Certified HUB.  In 1998 and 1999 PFS created the web sites filingsystems.com and the e-commerce site filingstore.com.  

Ron has helped clients design, purchase, and install systems that store and retrieve 1,000’s of file folders and those that handle 100’s of thousands of file folders. He has designed warehouse systems that totally automated a major hospital warehouse and designed and installed systems for clean rooms. Ron Cox helps clients create records management software systems that manage small departments up to enterprise wide systems.

Some of the systems sold store guns, eye glasses, pathology slides, legal evidence, fingerprint files, consumer credit files, mortgage files, credit files, accounting files, HR files, food, supplies, tools, ammunition, student records, student loans and more.

Ron Cox has helped Government and Dept. of Defense clients design, select, and implement storage and retrieval systems for over 30 years.  Over these years he has found that most clients are not aware of the solutions, products, and services, available to them.  In addition, they do not have the time to research and become knowledgeable about these options.  They are subject to the input of salespeople that may be more driven by their sales quotas and commissions than they are in providing a solution that meets the need(s) of the organization. 
FilingSystemsConsulting was created by Ron in order to provide the unbiased information that organizations need in order to make informed decisions about solving their storage and retrieval needs. 

Ron’s background in government sales, specifically in to Department of Defense organizations, have always been driven by true desire to provide these clients with the best solutions.  

Among his major projects he has helped clients design and install systems that totally automated a US Army warehouse.  For a US Air Force base he helped designed and installed a computer integrated, totally automated filing system for.  The original planning for this organization included 14 file clerks and office floor space that was not available.  By installing a computer integrated horizontal carousel system the client was able to perform the work with only 4 file clerks.  In addition, the floor space savings generated by the horizontal carousel systems was approximately 75% less floor space than the original plan using vertical carousels. 

Other projects have been systems that house:

    • Weapons
    • Eye Glasses
    • Pathology Slides
    • HR Files
    • Flight Helmets
    • Tools
    • Ammunition
    • Personnel Files
    • Medical Records








Ask about the totally automated NoWalk II horizontal carousel filing system. This system is perfect for high activity filing systems and filing operations with very high numbers of files and is highly efficient. For example, if your current filing system requires 10 file clerks, the efficiency of this system will allow you to reduce this number of clerks to 3-4 file clerks.
