Archive Digitisation & Paperless Office Solutions

London businesses often face the challenge of managing years of accumulated paperwork, particularly when office space comes at a premium.

Digitising your archive can help free up valuable storage areas, reduce the need for physical filing systems and provide quicker access to information when it's needed.

ProScan handles archive scanning projects of varying sizes, from individual departments to extensive collections of business records. We can discuss document preparation, scanning requirements, indexing and digital delivery to ensure your files are organised in a way that supports your existing working practices.

Our aim is to make your transition from paper to digital as straightforward and efficient as possible.

The Document Scanning Process

Our document scanning services follow a proven process to ensure accurate and efficient digitisation:

Collection

ProScan Document Imaging (or its courier) will carefully pack your documents into archive boxes prior to their transportation to our secure Southampton or Crawley premises. On arrival, we will book in each box giving it a unique identifying number.

Preparation

In accordance with the work schedule agreed, we’ll then prepare your documents using barcoding and patch code sheets if needed. At this point, our staff will also unfold sheets and remove staples to ensure the most accurate scanning of your documentation possible.

Scanning

Your documents are then digitised into images using the latest Kodak scanners. Documents are displayed on high definition screens and inspected in real time by our scanning operative for clarity and accuracy.

Quality Control

Upon completion of the scanning, a manager then checks that the scanning has been carried out successfully and to the specifications you required.

Document Indexing

With all files digitised and stored on our computer network, we then attach any related information to a document or batch of documents. If specified by our clients, documents then undergo the Optical Character Recognition process.

Secure Shredding

Following successful digitisation and indexing, your documents are then shredded and recycled for which we’ll provide you with a certificate of destruction (if required). Alternatively, we can return the documents to you or store them at our premises for a small monthly charge.
