XBM Scanning Bureau

Who Uses Bulk Scanning Services?

From NHS Trusts and other publicly funded bodies to corporations and SMEs, every organisation generates paper documents and they take up valuable space. Whatever industry you are in, you will have internal memos, reposts, statements, invoices, and customer or client correspondence, all filling up filing cabinets or archive boxes and each square foot costs you money. 

Quick, interactive access to a company’s own Business Intelligence (BI) is increasingly seen as opening up new opportunities for both improvements in customer service and new profit channels. In today’s hybrid work environment, it’s now more important than ever that employees can access business-critical documents remotely. Digital, flexible access could make the difference between continued operation and growth or  increasing costs that could lead to a potential closure. 

Finding original contracts, terms and conditions, and correspondence slows down customer service, frustrating both your staff and customers. Instant access provides your customers with a faster and more responsive customer experience. Accessing digital information from various sources can bring together previously unrecognised opportunities for new services and products, increasing your overall profitability.

So whether you need to archive your historic HR documentation, such as ID proofs, or invoices and statements, or proposals and reports, XBM’s Scanning Bureau takes the originals and provides you with an indexed and searchable archive containing digital copies of all your documents.

Industries that already use bulk scanning services include:

Part Of A Transition To A Digital Document Management Solution

XBM works with businesses and organisations of all sizes to plan a route from wherever they are in terms of their digital transformation to where they want to be.  You are already using email and probably have a networked multifunction printer that takes care of your day-to-day print, copy, and scan requirements.

However, for many businesses their legacy documents take up multiple filing cabinets and archive boxes, in some cases filling whole rooms or even warehouses. In either case, the growing problems of space and cost should be red flags.

For some, Accounts Payable is the main driver to seek a digital alternative that removes the costs, human errors, and inconvenience of a paper based system. For others, it is the need to access their Business Intelligence (BI) from anywhere and at any time that drives the needed transformation. How many hours are spent each year looking for paper documents that have been misfiled? How many times do you need to quote something from a report or from correspondence, but you can’t quite remember which document it was in, so you have to search through them all?

Digitalisation using advanced OCR makes these documents findable and even their content searchable in mere seconds, saving you time, space, and money. It starts with digitising the document, then digitalising your existing internal business processes, and finally streamlining and automating the workflow to eliminate unnecessary manual tasks.

With the launch of Square 9’s cloud hosted Solutions Delivery Network in 2020, they introduced the concept of predesigned, industry proven applications that serve as the foundation for your digital transformation strategy; regardless of organizational size.

From the smallest company to the largest corporation, the goal is to simplify the process of digital transformation like never before while removing any and all obstacles to business automation.

Come and talk to XBM about your requirements and we will plan and walk that journey with you.
