Why Convert Microfilm?

  • Reduces risks of losing confidential, priceless, historical data and provides back-up copies.
  • Easier retrieval & viewing of key documents using your PC
  • Reduces storage space.
  • Allows you to easily share your data with others.

Indexing- do I need it?

We will index according to your needs by asking you about how you would like the data labeled and whether you need special indexing by date, title, chapter, reel of film, etc.

OCR: Searchable Text- What is it?

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) allows you to search your files from your PC desktop. The scanned image is processed through OCR and then out put to an electronic searchable document. This is in a searchable PDF (Portable Document Format)

At Prescient, we thrive on excellence. That's why you'll see a difference in our attention to detail and customer service focus. We excel in quality control, which is monitored thoroughly from start to finish. Your organization will receive the highest scan quality from your microfilm.

Using state-of-the-art scanners and image enhancement software, Prescient can digitize your existing microfilm producing images consistent with and often better than the quality of the original film. This will allow all of your information to be stored and accessed using the same electronic information management solution. In addition, we offer quick turnaround with your microfilm/fiche while the original information stays protected in our secure facility.

Migration

Prescient Information Systems is one of few companies who have the years of successful experience in working with clients on extracting and migrating data from ECM Systems such as IBM FileNet and EMC Documentum.

Archived information adds another unique dimension to enterprise data conversion and migration. Organizations with back-file data in microfilm/microfiche and paper formats are eager to eliminate the tremendous costs associated with maintaining and accessing this information. The conversion process can require an inordinate in-house labor costs. For companies that have expanded through consolidations, mergers or acquisitions, this task is further complicated. They are confronted with the challenge of combining an even greater array of content from various sources and systems, which can be from an even greater number of departments, branch offices, and locations.

Numerous considerations must be made when combining data from vast amounts of locations, which are often generated from numerous business users.

  1. The data must be migrated in a timely fashion to minimize downtime.

  2. The data must remain accessible through-out the process.

  3. The integrity of the data must be maintained; eliminating the loss of critical information during the process.

  4. Compliance with government regulations and/or audit requirements must be achieved.

  5. Maintaining accurate and secure data, processes, document retention procedures and software licensing compliance

  6. The project timeline must be met in order to avoid delays and not inhibit ECM standardization.

Prescient takes much of the onus off of client, providing project management for each conversion. This includes tracking, reporting and auditing throughout the entire process to ensure that established budgets and timelines are met.
