Scanning service, document solutions and information management

When documents are part of your daily routine, they require special handling – along with dedicated resources and expertise. Our comprehensive solution – including archiving, file recovery, destruction and file digitization – ensures you are well positioned.

Customized solutions for your needs

The management of documents, data and information is becoming increasingly complex and time-consuming for all involved due to a multitude of regulations and laws designed to protect the privacy of sensitive information. While business digitization services can help, there are still many tasks associated with storage, archiving and shredding. As a full-service partner, we offer you the support and advice you need for your requirements from a broad product portfolio. We create added value by making your work easier and by sharing our expertise in handling documents with you.

Daily document management benefits

  • More space: Long retention periods and large file volumes require significant storage capacity just for archiving. You can save this space by storing your files off-site in our high-security archives.
  • Privacy-compliant file preparation: From file digitization to storage and destruction, we follow strict regulatory guidelines every step of the way to ensure legally compliant processing.
  • Resource-efficient: Focus on your core business – by outsourcing parts of the data processing and archiving process to our business digitization services, you give your employees more capacity for other tasks in their day-to-day work.
  • Simplified processes: With our scanning service, you can find digital files quickly and easily anytime, anywhere.
  • File recovery: The latest technology allows us to recover your documents even after water damage – ensuring you remain compliant with retention requirements.
  • Scalability: From individual folders to entire shelves, document and information solutions can be scaled to meet your needs.

File Recovery

If water enters your archive, data and documents can be lost forever. In this case, it is important to minimize the damage to your files and make them available again quickly. We routinely provide all the services required to recover your files according to the highest quality standards – from small volumes to large-scale losses.

Frequently asked questions

Our data center in Germany meets the highest security requirements for data protection. Our data center is certified according to ISO 27001 (Information Security Management System).

Our complete solution starts with the organization and planning of the entire project. The first step in digitization is transportation in a secure vehicle. We specialize in the transport of confidential documents, and secure transport is always guaranteed by our company’s own security vehicles. If required, the documents can be placed in sealable containers for additional protection. Once the documents arrive at the site, they are prepared for digitization. This includes de-stapling, flattening and removing any sticky notes. The documents are then scanned using high-performance scanners that can read and scan any format with ease.

The turnaround time depends primarily on the scope of the project. However, it is guaranteed that the documents will be available when needed.
