How We Scan Your Documents

Put the files and documents that need to be scanned in boxes. We will come pick up the boxes and bring them to our document scanning service location in New Jersey. We will next prepare the documents for scanning. This includes removing the paper from the files and binders, removing staples and other clips, inserting separation sheets to make logical document sets so that the paper documents are ready for scanning. We will scan the documents after the scanner settings have been adjusted to give the best image quality for the documents being scanned. After scanning we will index the documents or, in many cases rename the files to match the names on the paper file folders. All the scanned images are then put on a portable drive, or DVD, or CD based on storage size needed.

      This is the step where we need your help. We ask that you pack the paper files in sturdy shipping boxes, keeping the files in the same order as they are in your file cabinets. Next, mark the boxes (for example: list the name of the first file and the last file). This allows us to use this unique identifier throughout the processing cycle. This is particularly helpful should you call and need a file to be scanned and delivered to you right away, we will know exactly where it is located at all times.Don’t worry, if you have a large volume of papers, we can come to you and help pack the files for you. Should your project require chain of custody, we can inventory each file and box and apply tracking bar codes where applicable.

    preparation

    Upon receipt, documents are stored in secure storage while waiting processing.Document access is controlled throughout the project. There is an audit trail for every process in the document scanning work flow for the physical documents. Each box of paper must be signed for at every process during the work flow. The boxes are checked out for scanning and checked back in after scanning for each step during the scanning process by a project manager.Document Preparation is critical step in establishing the digital file structure. Documents are removed from their bindings while maintaining their logical unit structure. Separator sheets are inserted at logical separation points based on client requirements. Staples, brads, and paper clips are removed, as are post-it notes and other attachments prior to scanning. Post-it notes from single-sided documents will be taped to the blank side of the page before scanning. We use duplex scanners so the notes will become an additional image to a document.
