Case Study: Companies House achieves streamlined digital document processing with ABBYY FlexiCapture

ABBYY FlexiCapture Software Helps Companies House on its Journey to Becoming a Truly Digital Organisation

Companies House, the UK executive agency that incorporates and dissolves limited companies and publishes company data, faced heavy paper volumes (around 5,000 electronic account sets daily alongside large paper submissions) that created bottlenecks, delays and inefficiencies as it moved toward becoming a fully digital organisation.

After evaluating options, Companies House deployed ABBYY FlexiCapture Server—integrated with its core systems and augmented with a barcode-identification app—to automate document classification, data extraction, routing and archiving. The solution streamlined workflows, reduced paper handling and administrative costs, improved data capture accuracy, and is being expanded to process more form types.
