OREANDA-NEWS. ABBYY UK Ltd., a leading provider of document recognition, data capture, and linguistic technologies and services, today announced Formscan, based in Reading, UK, is the newest ABBYY solution partner. Formscan will deploy ABBYY's Data and Document Capture solutions, based on the ABBYY FlexiCapture platform, into the marketplace. ABBYY solutions provide a wide range of features to extract business-critical information from customer documents in various industry sectors such as legal, logistics, financial services, healthcare, government, outsourcing and many others.

“As an organisation we have made a strategic decision to adopt ABBYY's enterprise capture solution in order to give us a competitive advantage in the market,” says Chris Haden, veteran capture solutions consultant and Formscan's Managing Director. “Our goal is to offer high ROI solutions that are designed to save costs and deliver savings with true business benefits to end users. We reviewed our various input management options to ensure we build our future capture business on a strong product with the correct price-point. ABBYY FlexiCapture not only provides this platform but also integrates easily with Papertrail© our powerful, browser-based document management and workflow engine. To Formscan it is critical that we can work with an organisation which understands the need for strong partnership to ensure high quality, business-critical solutions.”

ABBYY FlexiCapture enables Formscan to offer its clients a seamless process, from the time documents enter an organisation as post, using Papertrail ® to store and manage the documents through operational processes, and then delivering to business applications like SAP, Oracle Financials, JD Edwards, and various other records/document management applications. Documents are scanned and essential data captured from business-critical documents, such as invoices, is automatically entered into the backend application while at the same time the original is digitally archived for fast and easy retrieval. This level of automation removes several of the most time-consuming manual tasks involved in paper processing.

“We place tremendous value on our relationships with partners, who help us deliver solutions and applications to customers. Formscan has demonstrated a proven track record in providing expert and high quality customer service,” states Ed MacArthur, Head of UK & Ireland Sales for ABBYY UK Ltd. “Customers need to rely on trusted advisers to help guide them through the available business technology options. Formscan is such an adviser and we are therefore pleased to have them as our newest solution partner.”
