About Us
/ How It Works
1 / Consultation
Based on an honest and expert assessment of your requirements, we discuss, advise and recommend a suitable scanning solution for your business.
2 / Collection
Your materials are picked up and safely transported to our facilities. Before we leave, all materials are checked to ensure nothing is left behind.
3 / Scanning
Upon arrival, your documents are thoroughly inspected before we carefully prepare them for the scanning process. Once digitised, the images undergo a rigorous quality assurance procedure to ensure legibility, completeness and where appropriate, pagination.
4 / Indexing
Scanned images are indexed (named) as per your instructions. This is achieved by using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software and techniques to capture information on the document automatically or by manually keying the information in from the scanned image.
5 / Delivery
Your digital images are delivered to you for approval by your preferred method along with your original documents.
6 / Destruction
If you longer wish to keep your original documents, we will arrange for them to be securely destroyed or recycled at our facilities.
