Document Scanning
To meet your scanning needs, Cities Digital offers document scanning & conversion services from its service bureau. The safe and secure scanning facility ensures that even the most sensitive documents can be trusted to us for handling.
Converting large quantities of paper documents or entire back-files to digital images can be very time consuming, especially for employees that already have responsibilities. Choose to outsource your document conversion to Cities Digital so your staff can focus on your business instead. Cities Digital can scan paper documents to nearly any format in existence (pdf, tif, gif, and even proprietary formats). We also offer to do extra preparation of documents (i.e. staple removal, restaple and sorting) before and after scanning as an optional service. Although there are some clients who wish to handle their own scanning, most people find that having a service bureau scan the back-file is the most cost efficient and reliable option.
The scanning services available include all sizes and types of paper, maps, plans, aperture cards, negatives, slides, and photographs. After documents are scanned Cities Digital then applies appropriate indexing information and imports the images into your database, or prepares a files structure.
At Cities Digital employees have worked with clients to scan historical documents as well as classified information. Experience in a wide variety of projects should give you the peace of mind that the team at Cities Digital can help you get your arms around the paper nightmare.
Once records are converted to digital format Cities Digital may import into your system of choice including: Laserfiche, Ax5, Documentum, OnBase, SIRE, Docuware, Filenet, Oracle & DocStar & Docupace.
