Why Outsource to a Scanning Bureau?
Depending on the nature of the project, we can advise our client whether it will be cost effective to outsource it to our scanning bureau or consider our in-house document scanning service. On top of this we can offer a bespoke, high quality and easy-to-use document management system which fits into your office procedures seamlessly.
There are various elements to be considered in this process. Our scanning bureau's digital conversion, data capture and forms processing services offer a cost effective and professional solution to any requirement. Taking the decision to outsource the entire process to us creates endless benefits which are calculated in terms of a reduction in staffing and IT costs and the better use of staff and resources. This in turn allows you to focus on your core business and grow exponentially without hiring additional personnel.
Other Major Benefits of Document Scanning include
- Locate any document within seconds using a keyword, number or date search
- A study shows administration staff spend 30% of their time organising documents, this costs the company 30% of their salary
- Reduce the space taken up by filing cabinets and document storage units
- Documents can be distributed between staff at different locations and valuable time saved on file searching
- Management can review and authorise any documents in the office
- It is a guaranteed return on investment and is actually considered a saving rather than a cost
Our onsite Scanning Services
Our unique on-site scanning and document management service is usually required by those clients who for legal reasons or to comply with company policies cannot remove their business documents from the premises.
With the client's full consultation we can setup a mini scanning bureau and manage the entire project from their work place. We dedicate our team of experienced scanning operator's who work on the document preparation, scanning, document indexing and conversion tasks. We put our efforts into ensuring that the transition from the hard copy conversion to digital format seamlessly integrates with our client's timescale, operations, systems and resources.
Our Bespoke Document Management Solutions
Choosing a document management system is not an easy task and in fact for some IT professionals it is a daunting process. For some client's, a standard off-the-shelf document management system which is written with the general business process in mind is not sufficient enough to deliver the business objectives.
In order to cater for every type of client, we offer our unique bespoke document management solutions and systems. This service is inclusive of records management, document imaging, document capture, OCR Scanning and Conversion Engines, Barcode Capture and Conversion and Re-organisation. We can adapt any application in order to be flexible enough to blend in with the business environment. We have provided bespoke document management software, systems and solutions to many small to medium sized organisations, and have built up a reputation in the industry as 'Document Management Experts'. Whatever brief we receive from our client, our expertise in be-spoke document management is second to none.
