Why businesses invest in bulk document scanning
Reduction in costs
Cost of maintaining space and storing physical records can impact businesses financially. Investing in bulk document scanning will mean switching physical documents with digitized ones—drastically reducing the cost of underutilized office space.
Accessibility
Digitized documents are available instantaneously to staff, can be shared easily and reviewed simultaneously. Digitized images can be made ‘text searchable’ with our OCR capability meaning you can find the information you need with a simple search.
Security
Document digitization provides a vital inventory of your business, customer and/or patient data. Document safeguards, retention rules and access tracking can be applied at file level, ensuring your organization is fully compliant with HIPAA or other sector-specific regulations.
Operational efficiency
Physical documents are at risk of loss and deterioration—all of which can affect operations. When documents have been digitized, they are accessible to those who need it when they need it.
Security and compliance
Paper records can be lost, damaged or stolen, and it is difficult to trace who has access to the information in paper form. Without appropriate security and compliance measures, businesses are at risk.
Quality review and control
EDM's tested-and-true quality control (QC) and quality review (QR) protocol ensures delivery of the digitized documents our customers need and expect.
