Case Study: Ordnance Survey cuts staff record scanning time with EzeScan

Ordnance Survey cuts staff record scanning time from 20 minutes to 40 seconds with EzeScan

Ordnance Survey, the national mapping agency for Great Britain, faced a challenge in digitizing a large volume of historic staff records containing multiple document types, a process that was taking up to 20 minutes per file. They partnered with EzeScan to implement a capture solution to scan and organize these records for their electronic document management system ahead of a office move.

The EzeScan solution utilized barcode coversheets and index cards to automatically identify, categorize, and upload documents. This dramatically reduced the processing time per file from 20 minutes to just 40 seconds, resulting in massive time savings. The implementation by EzeScan was quick, and the project also improved security by ensuring only authorized staff could access the digital HR files.
