Save time and money.
Storing your files onsite takes up valuable and expensive office space, and paying an employee to remove staples and scan documents is time-consuming. Even when the boxes are clearly identifiable, and their contents listed accurately, it can take an employee some time to get their hands on what they need. As a result, everything slows down – and lost time translates to lower cost efficiency.
Using a ‘scan on demand’ service not only eliminates the need to purchase document imaging equipment, but also frees up office space because the documents would be stored securely offsite in a record centre. Whenever you need access to a file, our scanning team would scan and convert your document to a digital image. Your scanned documents would then be sent directly to your desktop or mobile device.
Whilst we are living in a worldwide pandemic scan on demand has many benefits such as file remain digital and can be shared between employees on one platform.
