Scanners

Requested Fri 22 December 2017
Responded  Fri 22 December 2017

The movement away from paper to digital processes has been on-going for some time now. One part of a comprehensive digitisation strategy is the use of scanners to create digital versions of paper documents.  Below is my freedom of information request regards your use of scanners. Not multi-functional devices, but paper document Scanners, DM systems and EPR systems. If you have any questions please feel free to email me at this address.

• How many employees do you currently have?
• How many scanners (not multifunctional devices) do you currently have to scan paper based documents?
• Which brand do you use (i.e. Brother, Canon, Fujitsu, Kodak Alaris etc)?
• Which scanner model do you mainly use?
• Who supplies these scanners?
• Do you have a contract for these scanners?
• If so, when does this expire?
