Transform your Digital Mailroom

Challenge

Surely you are all too familiar with the challenges of working with paper-based information. The information security, privacy, and compliance requirements of your organization, as well as employee efficiency, are affected by these challenges. Leaders like you have been trying to remove, or at least reduce, paper-based information from business processes for quite a while. But it’s impossible to remove paper from your workplace when paper-based mail keeps coming and your employees struggle constantly to manage large volumes of inbound paper mail. Access to paper-based mail is an even bigger challenge for remote employees who need secure access to their mail anytime, anywhere.

Solution

The Iron Mountain® Digital Mailroom solution on AWS is a purpose-built software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering that allows you to eliminate paper at your “front door.” After rerouting your mail, Iron Mountain scans, indexes, and ensures quality control to meet your document conversion requirements. By leveraging optical character recognition (OCR) technology using Amazon Textract, you can search the contents of your documents by text or index. OCR is available for your PDF, TIFF, Office documents, and logos in 50-plus languages. Once your mail is digitized, you can securely store, search, and access it in a secure information management and content services platform.

How does it work?
