Choosing the wrong digitization partner puts your collection at risk

Imaging standards like FADGI require precision most service bureaus can’t consistently deliver
Sensitive government or institutional records demand confidentiality throughout the entire process
Projects stall when vendors can’t handle your volume, format, or on-site requirements
Pilot scanning is rarely offered, so quality problems surface only after production has begun
A service bureau for collections that cannot be replaced
