Questions to Consider about Document Management

Do you work in an industry that relies heavily on paper documents? If so, you probably already have realized what a pain it is to organize, maintain and retrieve information from documents as they seem to accumulate over the years.
Here are a few more questions to consider:
How much space does your business’ paper documents occupy?
How much time does it take to retrieve information from documents in your files?
Is the presence of so many documents and the inability to access them all easily wearing away at your company’s productivity.
Is your industry being federally mandated to digitize their paper documents?
If you have several departments within your company, have you found it difficult to share information between departments in a timely manner?
How confident are you that the documents that are being accessed are not being misused, because of the incapability to be able to inspect what documents they access?
How long does it take for your knowledge workers to be able to access information for any given customer or client?
How secure are you in the continuity of your business if disaster strikes?
Are there employees in your company who need to access documents outside of normal business hours?
Have you archived information that needs to be stored for years but takes up space?

ABOUT DCPI

    Building upon core strengths acquired in the fields of technical authoring, database design, and digital information services, DCPi (Digital Convergence Partners, Inc.) has developed a rich, robust and
complementary set of product service offerings for companies with requirements for managing volumes of mission critical operational documentation.

    DCPi understands that the management of information for business is similar to legal advice, accounting, and other bodies of knowledge, in that it is not inherently a do-it-yourself prospect.

To increase both efficiency and profitability, they need to find quality partners who can provide not just short term but rather long term reliable services and solutions. Businesses need to make use of these quality partners as they use their other professional service suppliers, as trusted allies.

   DCPi is especially focused on providing comprehensive suites of services, delivering a total business solution. These services include digital document conversion from a wide range of physical formats, highly sophisticated metadata and index extraction, and hosting of digital documentation in a personalized format on our secure internet portal. Our services include development of codification and taxonomy standards, in-house and remote image conversion, manual and intelligent document recognition indexing, as well as application and database development for customized document management repositories. With our hosted subscription-based
eCharta® solution offering, we provide cost-effective purpose-built electronic document and content hosting solutions for business in any industry.

Our Statement of Purpose
