Return on Investment (ROI) to scanning, often referred to as digitizing, analog paper, microfilm or microfiche documents into an electronic format such as PDF or TIFF is usually based on the following three organizational needs,
- Instant 24/7/365 access to their documents.
- Simultaneously share documents with stake holders in multiple locations.
- Regulatory requirement to preserve and store documents for long periods of time.
Electronic files are more secure, cannot be lost, or destroyed by fire or flood. Paper easily breaks down if not perfectly stored. Having the PDF or image is the first step in harvesting valuable data that may be locked in paper.
Outsourcing to a professional company provides specialized expertise, equipment and technology such as OCR and AI for indexing digital images. No need to hire and manage staff, physical space or buying expensive equipment.
