Digitisation

Document dematerialisation

Digitisation is a transformative process that entails converting information from a physical medium to a digital format. Although typically associated with the transition of paper documents to digital images, the scope of digitisation can also encompass other materials, such as audio and video.

KEEP SOLUTIONS collaborates with highly specialized partners who are experts in large-scale digitisation projects. A standard project encompasses a comprehensive diagnosis of the documentation, meticulous scanning of materials, and expert technical guidance to seamlessly integrate the digital outputs into a document management software.

Our strategic alliances ensure perfect harmony between the dematerialisation workflow and the incorporation of these results into KEEP SOLUTIONS’ software. This ensures not only a smooth transition from physical to digital but also optimal integration and usability in our advanced digital management systems.

Partners

We cooperate with market-leading companies in digitisation

Collaboration with highly specialized partners in digitisation allows us to provide a complete dematerialization service that ranges from the diagnosis of documentation to technical support for integrating digital documents into the management software.

This cooperation ensures perfect alignment concerning workflows and production strategies that facilitate the subsequent integration of digitisation results into KEEP SOLUTIONS software.
