Solution
Document Processing & Archive Management
Make large volumes of documentation more accessible, easier to search and easier to manage. With smart document processing, you can order, analyse and enrich archive and collection material faster while preserving context and human control.
Museums, archives and heritage organisations hold a great deal of valuable information in documents: archival records, reports, minutes, correspondence, inventories, conservation documentation, provenance files and acquisition records. This documentation often contains essential context about objects, collections, decisions and origin. At the same time, this information is not always easy to access. Documents are often spread across systems, folders and file formats, and their content is not always directly searchable or structurally available. This makes it time-consuming to retrieve relevant information, complete files and make archive material accessible.
With Document Processing & Archive Management, we help you process large volumes of documentation more efficiently and carefully. We support ordering, analysing, summarising, transcribing, comparing, enriching and structuring documents so that information becomes visible and usable faster.
This may involve processing archive files, summarising long reports, extracting important data from documentation, identifying inconsistencies, comparing different versions or preparing migration to a new system. Documentation then becomes not only more manageable, but also more valuable as a source for collection management, research and public access.
