Market research firm IDC put out an interesting report on IT spending during the recession. Among the survey's findings is that scanner hardware shipments will rise 3.5 percent, to 1.3 million units, in 2009.
And much of this growth is due to document scanning needs outside the U.S.
India is one country in particular that is riding the document imaging wave. There are many Indian outsourcing companies that provide document imaging and scanning as part of their services.
The globalization of document scanning as a universal business practice even during a global downturn may be taken as an indication that document scanning can help companies become more efficient, even more profitable.
The ROI of document imaging is most immediately apparent in the elimination of manual labor-intensive tasks such as processing invoices. This is a good place to start.
And the world has started.
