How it works
We collect your documents form your site and transport them to our secure depot to be converted into digital files. If you need a file urgently at this point, we’ll locate it, scan it and email it to you, or arrange to return the hard copy. Alternatively, 'SDS Box', our document management system lets you scan documents straight into our system from your site or office.
Once the documents have been scanned, digital files are returned via a password-protected disk, hard drive or securely hosted online, meaning you can access the information at any time, from anywhere in the world.
If required, we will safely destroy the original documents and issue a certificate of destruction. Alternatively, we will keep the original paper documents in our secure archive.
