Goodwill’s New Document Imaging Service Helps Businesses Solve Challenges
Goodwill’s newest program helps the business community solve one of its most
critical challenges — controlling, securing and managing documents and files.
Started earlier this year, the document imaging and destruction service uses
special software and high speed scanners to convert paper images into digital
pictures to be indexed and stored. Businesses can search through millions of
documents quickly as well as significantly reduce the need for document storage.
By using the document imaging service, businesses streamline operations by
simplifying the organization and storage of company information in a secure and
timely way. Businesses save time by improving office efficiency, gain added
convenience of easy access, save money, and maintain peace of mind by ensuring
disaster recovery, guaranteed business continuance and assurance that documents
won’t be misfiled or lost. Legal forms, medical forms, employment records and
other confidential documents can be scanned and saved.
The program, located at 2320 W. Colorado Ave., gives about ten Goodwill
program participants and disabled veterans, who perform all aspects of the
document scanning, imaging and shredding, an opportunity to gain real work
experience and earn an income. Because of Goodwill programs like the document
imaging service, 5,069 individuals found competitive employment in the community
last year, ranking Goodwill Industries of Colorado Springs sixth among over 170
Goodwills in the United States and Canada for program outcomes.
