By digitizing physical documents, organizations can optimize business processes, save physical space and better leverage technology investments. With document scanning, companies can unlock paper burdened workflows and move toward a paperless office.
The digitization process typically consists of a scanning phase which can be performed using dedicated scanning devices or multifunctional peripherals (MFPs). Following the scanning phase, capture software can be used to classify the documents and extract the information that is required for processing them. The results (e.g. a PDF files with associated metadata) are then passed to a business application such as a DMS, ECM or ERP.
The Arcplace Scanning Solutions include:
