Document Conversion Services

DocWorks™ Conversion Associates of America or the DCAA is a national consortium of service bureaus that specialize in the conversion and indexing of paper and electronic documents into industry standard electronic formats. The DCAA is comprised of a national network of individually owned and managed organizations that share resources to more effectively serve a national market space. This group has adopted standards for process, pricing and service so that one company can promote the services of another geographically without service or efficiency concerns when referring a client to another DCAA member. Utilizing the DCAA service bureau network also insures a consistent level of quality work resulting in a highly effective content management solution.

The DCAA and its members have been designing customized content management systems for many years. An integral part of our DocWorks™ retrieval solution is assisting clients with converting paper documents to electronic images so that the competency does not have to be incorporated in-house. There are two primary options for paper conversion; set up an in-house document scanning application, or utilize the expertise of a service bureau and outsource the conversion work which is usually the more cost efficient choice.

When outsourcing document conversion, a DCAA member acts as a Consultant and an Agent in the client's behalf to insure that the imaging projects are completed properly. DCAA members work with DocWorks™ clients to determine document types, indexing, document preparation processes, and other elements required to image and index data transfer into the DocWorks™ repository. They formalize the project specifications and direct the service bureau on the requirements of the conversion project.

When decisions are made to capture documents within the client's organization, DCAA affiliates will assist in setting up in-house document scanning/indexing capabilities. DCAA members work with DocWorks™ clients to determine daily page quantities, document attributes, automated data extraction, and processes to deliver a seamless application from scanning to the retrieval of information and documents. Your local DCAA member will help install any required hardware and software and also work with your group to set up the physical transfer of the data into the DocWorks™ system.
