INCOMING MAIL
At a major unemployment fund
One of Switzerland's biggest unemployment funds has to deal with a huge volume of mail every day. In its scan center, the Fund's three scanners process some 170,000 pages or a tonne of paper every month.
After consultation with the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) and the decision to replace the previous scanners, a new scanning solution featuring high-performance scanners from Kodak, together with Kofax Capture scanning software, was designed, installed and successfully commissioned. The new solution supports secure paper handling in high image quality, automatic transfer of the data to SECO's central DMS without breaks in the media chain, and seamless editing of the data ahead of the downstream process. Thanks to the new, heavy-duty solution, savings of 3-5 minutes per stack at up to 50 stacks a day could be achieved. What is more, the early detection of misfeeds helps minimize interruptions; productivity optimization generates corresponding cost savings.
