From individual projects to large-scale document conversions, Rover provides document imaging solutions tailored to your organization's needs.

Why Document Imaging Matters

Paper-based workflows can slow down daily operations, take up valuable office space, and make important information harder to locate. Document imaging helps organizations:

• Reduce dependence on paper files and filing cabinets.
• Improve access to digitized records.
• Reduce time spent locating physical documents.
• Support more efficient administrative workflows.
• Protect sensitive information throughout the document handling process.
• Make better use of office and records storage space.

Whether you're digitizing active business files or converting archived records, a well-planned document imaging project can help streamline how your organization manages information.

How Our Document Imaging Process Works

Rover follows a structured process to help ensure documents are handled carefully and converted into digital files.

1. Secure pickup or intake of physical records. We coordinate the collection or intake of physical records for processing.
2. Document preparation, sorting, and organization. Records are prepared, sorted, and organized for scanning based on the project's requirements.
3. High-resolution document scanning. Our document imaging process converts physical documents into digital files using professional scanning equipment.
4. Digital file preparation. Scanned documents are prepared for digital delivery in accordance with the agreed project specifications.
5. OCR (Optical Character Recognition). Learn more about
6. Secure digital delivery. Completed digital files are delivered to the customer through the agreed delivery method.

Throughout the process, documented chain-of-custody procedures support the secure handling and accountability of your records.

Key Benefits of Document Imaging

• Improved accessibility: Make digital copies of important business documents available without retrieving the original paper files.
• Greater operational efficiency: Reduce the time and effort involved in handling and locating physical records.
• Reduced paper storage needs: Digitization can help organizations reduce the amount of paper they need to keep readily accessible.
• Better document handling: Convert paper records into digital files that can be incorporated into your organization's workflows.
• Support for compliance efforts: Organized digital records can help support information retrieval, audits, and records management processes.
• More productive use of office space: Reduce the amount of space devoted to paper files where digitization is appropriate.

OCR & Searchable Document Capabilities

Optical Character Recognition (OCR), is a technology that recognizes text within scanned document images. When OCR is applied, the recognized text can be used to make documents searchable. For example, searching for a name, date, or reference number in a searchable PDF can be much faster than manually reviewing every page. OCR technology can be particularly useful when working with large volumes of invoices, contracts, personnel files, and other business records. The availability and format of searchable text depend on how documents are processed and delivered. Contact Rover to discuss your document imaging requirements and the output best suited to your project.

What Happens to Your Paper Records?

Digitization is one part of the records lifecycle. Once a document imaging project is complete, organizations must determine what should happen to the original paper records.

Depending on your requirements, Rover can help with the next steps through:

• Return of original documents: Arrange for originals to be returned following the project.
• Secure records storage: Store records that must be retained in physical form.
• Certified document destruction and shredding: Securely destroy eligible records when they have reached the end of their approved retention period.

Original documents should not be destroyed solely because they have been scanned. Before authorizing destruction, organizations should confirm applicable retention requirements, legal holds, and any requirements governing the use of digital copies.

Rover offers records management and secure destruction services to help organizations manage records throughout their lifecycle.
