Micro Com Systems, a Vancouver-based document conversion company with 50 years of industry experience, has been offering on-site scanning services since 1992, predating the popularization of door-to-door delivery services like DoorDash and Instacart. The company serves businesses of all sizes, from small home-based operations to large multinational corporations, all of which share the common need for confidential treatment of paper files during digitization processes.
While most clients are comfortable sending materials to Micro Com's Burnaby facility, a small percentage prefer on-site scanning where all work is completed on their premises. This service involves deploying trained staff with appropriate hardware that is reassembled at the customer's location. Project requirements and timelines dictate the specific metrics and equipment used, allowing flexibility in execution speed based on client preferences.
The company provides all necessary equipment for on-site scanning services, requiring only adequate space for personnel and file access. Depending on security needs, completed scans and metadata can be transferred through various secure means including external hard drives, thumb drives, or DVDs. The autonomous team operation ensures a customized service that meets specific client requirements without additional charges.
This long-standing service demonstrates the evolving nature of document management solutions, particularly the importance of flexible, secure options for businesses handling sensitive information. The ability to maintain document confidentiality while achieving digital conversion aligns with growing data protection concerns across industries.
Micro Com Systems' extensive experience in document management solutions, including archival scanning, medical imaging, and enterprise report management, positions the company as a significant player in the region's business services sector. Their continued operation since 1975 reflects the enduring need for professional document conversion services that adapt to changing business requirements and technological advancements.
