- Decide, is digital imaging right for you? Think of all the times you were looking for that one document when a customer arrives and you can not manage to find it anywhere. Document imaging is great for those items you frequently retrieve. Or how about when you and your co-worker need to use the same document at the same time? When digitizing, you can share documents. This goes for sharing documents with people in different physical locations—you can easily share the digital version via email or fax. Digitizing paperwork will foster a better workflow, as you can simply complete custom searches, utilize different viewing features like zooming, panning, and rotating, and create flags.
- Digitize what you need. Not everything needs to go digital. If you are not going to retrieve the document or utilize it, there is no point in digitizing it. Archival paperwork is better left in its original form until it is time to destroy it. It is not time or cost effective to digitize paperwork that you will never use.
- Hand it over. Once you have an understanding of what digital imaging can do to improve your business and decided what needs to be digitized, you hand over the paperwork. We then work to scan and digitize your images and place them in a secure environment.
- Integrate. Now it is time to integrate this new system into your workplace.
