Document Scanning for Life Sciences

The UK is at the forefront of the Life Science Industry with a number of world class brands choosing the UK as their centre of operations. With eight of the world's top universities and a significant number of world class research centres, the UK accounts for more than 10% of the global Life Science research and developement funding.

Whilst the UK Life Science industry has enjoyed considerable growth in recent years it now faces the prospect of strong global competion, not just from the developed world but also from some emerging economies who, with lower labour costs are gradually increasing their share of the market. It is essential in these times of increased competion that UK companies become as productive and efficient as possible.

ProScan have been working with some of the largest names in the Biotech, Pharmaceutical and Healthcare sectors helping to improve efficiencies by integrating our document scanning services with their own internal process management systems.

Some of the recent projects ProScan have been involved in include:

• Scanning of Design History Files to PDF format including the creation of bookmarks and PDF links to allow for swift navigation of large documents.

• Archiving of Lab Notebooks without the need to remove bindings.

• Scanning of Global Product Registration files with optical character recognition (OCR) for a full word search capability
