Piece by Piece Implementation of Document Imaging

Business owners are, necessarily, decision-makers who frequently, once a decison is made, go "all in." This is the nature of the entrepreneur.

Document imaging solutions often perplex such people, because the issue is so not black and white. Shades of gray abound, for instance when deciding how much to spend on implementing document imaging technology.

The result, sometimes, is that either no document imaging solution is adopted, or else a too-expensive document imaging solution is adopted and there is regret.

This doesn't need to be this way, and in fact shouldn't, because document imaging technology implementation works great as a piece by piece process, rather than an "all at once" commitment.

Start with the simple stuff, such as making bulky paper records electronic.

From there, build on that foundation, thinking of new ways to use and connect those records.

Always, keep an eye towards the future, and don't commit to working with one vendor only. Keep your options open, go slow as needed, but don't do nothing for fear of doing too much.
