ANATOMY OF A TYPICAL ECM SYSTEM Content Management Repository Search Technology Document Capture Workflow or Business Process Management Document scanners, MFPs, Network Scanning Appliances IT Infrastructure (servers, SQL, storage, network, etc.) Professional Services for Project Management and Implementation Annual Software Assurance and Hardware Maintenance Fees (ongoing) CONVERT TO SEARCHABLE .PDF STOP VERIFICATION QUEUE EXPORT TO DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM BARCODE/ SEPARATION DOCUMENT CLEANUP START Zonal OCR EXCEPTION QUEUE WWW.CAPSYSTECH.COM
11. Save to Tiff, PDF, PDF/A or Searchable PDF, JPEG, JBIG, MDI, etc.?
12. Should I outsource any/all of the document capture and indexing services to a service bureau?
13. Should I centralize, decentralize or take a hybrid approach towards the capture process?
14. Is SaaS a viable option for any aspects of the ECM anatomy?
15. What automation – if any - can I incorporate into the overall capture process?WWW.CAPSYSTECH.COM
16. DOCUMENT CAPTURE APPROACH CHOICES Centralized All document capture and business processes remain within control of central planning and management authorities Distributed Document capture and business processes are pushed out to the remote locations where content (and problem) originates Hybrid Combination of both approaches WWW.CAPSYSTECH.COM
17. CENTRALIZED APPROACH Equipment, licensing, ongoing software assurance, support costs are significantly more expensive than alternatives Dedicated staff to process the volume of content at central office – inevitably creating a new, non-revenue generating cost center Work space, power and environmental requirements Transportation/shipping costs Built in latency in document processing and slower turnaround times Potential for lost or misplaced documents during document handling phases WWW.CAPSYSTECH.COM
18. DISTRIBUTED CAPTURE APPROACH The Goal Capture documents at Point of Origin – where the problem originates Remote Locations; branch locations – anywhere in the world Using available technology, i.e, Scanners, Email, Fax, MFP, Office files, etc. What are the benefits? Reduce paper handling and courier costs Shipping, postage, tracking, etc. Accelerate the speed of business Moving at “Electronic Speed” Reduce document loss and increase document security Leverage investments in office technology Increase quality of document capture Reduce labor costs; Empower front office workers Reduce overall cost of ownership and Lower Operating Costs - Empower your customers and supply chain partners to “self-serve” - ingesting content directly into your business processes WWW.CAPSYSTECH.COM
19. DISTRIBUTED, WEB-BASED SCANNING Propensity to make the Document Capture solution as ubiquitous as the cell phone Web-based computing continues to advance at a much more rapid pace compared to thick client apps Flexible licensing, no page clicks, easy to expand internally, externally and beyond the firewall Much easier to deploy and maintain than clunky thick client apps Provides the lowest total cost of ownership WWW.CAPSYSTECH.COM
20. HYBRID APPROACH Leveraging Web-based scanning – inside the firewall Scan at Production Speeds Heavy Lifting at the Web Server, not the client Sophisticated Integration just like Thick Clients through .NET, JAVA, Web Services Mixed environment (blend of distributed and centralized document capture) WWW.CAPSYSTECH.COM

36. ON-PREMISE vs. SaaS – THE GREAT DEBATE Unmatched time to market Minimal downtime, 24x7 access, no more upgrades, patches, hotfixes, service packs to install May be non-taxable (speak to your Tax Advisor) No recurring software or hardware maintenance contracts No CapEx, minimal upfront costs Backup and Disaster Recovery Pricing strategies unmatched by traditional on-premise alternatives WWW.CAPSYSTECH.COM
37. STARK REALITIES OF ON-PREMISE Today, more difficult to budget for CapEx vs. Operating Expense Annual maintenance fees are increasing without the purchase of additional software Excessive fees are being charged for non-value add services Expanding into other areas of the company would be too costly with current software Costs for application server maintenance is excessive when outsourced - CSC, Perot Systems (now HP), Rack Space, etc. Note: CAPSYS has seen costs as much as $15,000 per server per year. This is non-value add expenses that the LOB can expunge from ongoing budgets! Customers (LOB and IT) prefer to eradicate the need to install software or upgrade individual systems when they have remote needs Application upgrades require either automated SUS or on-premise visit at remote sites to facilitate WWW.CAPSYSTECH.COM
38. ALL OR NOTHING SaaS-BASED ECM? CAPTURE is the least risky component in the overall ECM solution set SaaS based capture, CM repository on-premise – completely plausible! Flexibility to change your decision in the future based on needs of the business SaaS based Capture Offers the fastest ROI Minimize Risk, Maximize Return WWW.CAPSYSTECH.COM
41. The 2010 index indicates SMBs are beginning to see the benefits of cloud computing;
42. More than 40 percent of the respondents that use hosted or cloud technology reportedrevenue rises of 30 percent or more compared with 90 percent of respondents not using hosted technology that saw decreases in revenue.
43. The advantages of hosted or cloud technology are viewed as reduced cost and IT management and maintenance, as well as increased business value, productivity and competitiveness. Source: http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2010/feb10/02-03techcriticalpr.mspx WWW.CAPSYSTECH.COM

Notas do Editor
Good Morning!!! (Time to Smile and Move – Be Enthusiastic!) My name is XXXXXXX and we are very pleased that you could join us this morning for our presentation on “The Benefits of Distributed Document and Data Capture”. I’ll be your host today and joining me for part of the presentation will be XXXXXX. The presentation will be divided into two sections: During the first part of this presentation, we will provide some background and definition to Distributed Capture. We will answer the questions, What is distributed capture? How can it benefit my organization? How does the system operate? Does it offer an acceptable ROI? During the second half of the presentation, we will provide an overview and demonstration of CAPSYS CAPTURE, a leading document and data capture solution that works over the internet through a browser The formal presentation should be about 45 minutes in duration leaving time for Q&A at the end. We will open up the lines at that time. You may also submit your questions via the chat feature in Webex. Again, thanks for joining us this morning. Let’s get started….
Let’s show you more about how distributed capture works and introduce you to a leading distributed document and data capture application from CAPSYS.
