Document Imaging and Scanning Services

Fortress document imaging services and document scanning services include indexing and online document hosting. We integrate existing databases with files kept in paper, microfilm, microfiche and aperture cards. We also convert engineering drawings, slides, books and other media. Many of our large document scanning jobs can be conducted onsite at customers' facilities.

We have a separate department dedicated to onsite projects, an important focus of our firm.  Between five and fifteen projects are generally underway throughout the U.S. Fortress provides the equipment, software, personnel and, most importantly, project management for successful document imaging conversions. 

Projects range from a single technician for a few days to thirty or more individuals over a period of years.

Our Web-based document hosting affords companies the ability to archive and process data on a real-time basis.  Secure access is available to authorized users from any location.  We fully administer our sites for backup, software and hardware upgrades, security monitoring, etc.  All phases of a document-imaging project such as preparation, scanning, indexing, PDF conversion, OCR/ICR, etc. can be done by Fortress, directly by our client or apportioned to either based upon the most efficient systems approach.

We use proven best practices and state-of-the-art techniques.  Projects include million dollar conversions, client-site facilities management and "on demand" information retrieval.

We convert images and data from all types of media from commercial documents to rare books, computer files, photos and slides. 

Methods range from single page processing with manual data entry to high-speed OCR / ICR, forms processing and media conversions.  A growing number of clients use our conversion expertise and fax-to-email to integrate and deliver content into their own websites. 

Our successful project management and data conversion experience is backed up by outstanding references in healthcare, financial services, law enforcement, government and almost every paper-intensive industry.

We do not have an "out-of-the-box" approach to conversions.  Our experience substantiates the commonsense premise that every client's needs are somewhat different, even within the same industry, government agency and application area.  As a result, every Fortress project is customized and tailored to specific client requirements.
