Document Management - Build A Solution That Meets Your Needs

Like many of our customers, you may be considering the purchase of an electronic imaging system, which helps you streamline document organization and storage and lets you retrieve documents from a common Web browser. At one time, such solutions were only affordable for large businesses. However, today's document management solutions feature improved quality at lower prices, and businesses with modest IT budgets can now justify the expense.

The basic setup for many businesses is simple. It typically includes a dedicated workstation, imaging software and one or more scanners. Scanned content is then transferred to online or offline storage for archiving, searching and retrieval. We can further personalize the system to your specific needs.

Streamline Operations with Managed Print Services

In today's business climate, small and midsize businesses (SMBs) are competing with everyone—one another and bigger firms alike—for customers and revenues in every niche. SMBs are subject to the same pressures and influences as larger enterprises—to do more with less, to streamline processes and response times, and to align IT resources with business goals. "Many organizations are under pressure to optimize their IT infrastructure," says Louella Fernandes, principal analyst at research firm Quocirca. "Whilst IT managers have focused primarily on consolidating desktops, servers, storage, applications and networks, the print environment has been largely overlooked." (July 2006)

Handing off non-core servIces
Increasingly, companies are finding that they're better served—from operational and cost standpoints—by contracting with service providers and ‘out-tasking' certain niche functions. With these services, resellers provide guidance and IT management that customers don't have enough
expertise or resources to handle in-house. Advanced networking, security, and VoIP deployments, for example, have been areas where service providers take pressure off beleaguered IT staff at small and midsize companies. "Anything that boosts an organization's productivity and off-loads the burden to a third party can be considered a managed service," writes Luc Hatlestad in a January 2006 VARBusiness report.

Making the Transition to Electronic Document Management

If your company is exploring the idea of electronic document management, you may be thrilled with its promise of higher efficiency, but also intimidated — even overwhelmed — by the complexity of transitioning to such a large system.

That’s because if your company is like most, the sheer volume of the documents you process is staggering.

According to IDC, 95 percent of all business information is still paper-based. And the amount of time spent wading through this flood of data is equally immense — often up to 40 percent of employees’ time, according to research by Xerox.

Today’s technology can eliminate the headaches caused by manually storing, managing and retrieving data. Electronic document management solutions can perform these tasks automatically.

And with our help, making a transition to an electronic solution may not be as stressful as you think. Through our partnership with VentureTech Network, we have the expertise to help you choose the right solution components and expedite your shift to a new process. We’ll start by carefully examining your business needs and evaluating your answers to the following questions.
