KOC took 6 months to find the proper vendors for document capture, image repository, retrieval software and workflow. Once these companies were found the next obstacle involved finding “enough physical office space for the file scanning operation staffed by 22 people from Pitney Bowes and the in-house scanning operation that required space for 19 people.”
This entire process will take until 2007 to complete freeing up two entire floors for better use. A little behind the times but KOC is finally entering the 21st century.
Knights of the future.
I wonder how much they may be able to save in Real Estate costs -- or on the structural damage repair costs. It may be a lot higher than the scanning effort.
Still, about 50 employees for two years is a lot of money! Millions!
