Hybrid Scanning Solution

A hybrid scanning solution provides options around files and documents which have different levels of activity. Some documents which are fairly inactive can be stored offsite and scanned on demand as required. Active files can be digitised into searchable files stored in a central repository.

FAQ

BS 10008 is the British Standard outlining best practice of electronic information management systems, thus establishing the authenticity and integrity of information. The aim is to maintain the authenticity and integrity of the electronically stored information (ESI) so that it is accepted in a court of law without dispute. This is important in cases where the ESI might be used as evidence.

ISO/IEC 27001 is the standard for information security management systems (ISMS), establishing best practice in data protection and cyber resilience. The ISO/IEC 27001 set of standards enables organisations to manage security of assets such as financial information, intellectual property, employee data and information entrusted by third parties.

Document scanning is the process of capturing information from physical paper documents and converting it into digital formats such as PDF or JPEG.

As documents are scanned to BS 10008 compliance, you don't need to keep the original paper documents for them to be legally acceptable. With your permission, documents are then shredded (excluding wills and deeds, which cannot be destroyed), alternatively, documents can be stored securely or returned to you if required.

When processing sensitive and confidential data, you can be assured that all employees have undergone Governance Training and have signed Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreements. We use unmarked vehicles to maintain confidentiality and security with full end-to-end tracking from point of collection to storage and delivery.

Every document scanning project can vary from the number of documents being scanning, boxed, processed, indexed, OCR capability, and digital document delivery method. However, we do offer a free consultation service and no-obligation quote - get in touch to get started today.
