Company Overview
If you are worried about providing fast and reliable access to your critical documents, take a look at Iron Mountain's document management solutions.

Only a small subset of business documents require frequent access; however, fast, reliable access to these most active documents is critical to delivering quality service. For many organizations, document management is fragmented, inefficient, and costly — involving a mix of paper and electronic records; active and rarely accessed documents; on-site and off-site storage; and multiple vendors.

Iron Mountain document management solutions include options for managing active file rooms, document scanning and indexing, as well as a hosted repository, so that you'll have complete visibility and quick access to your most active business records.

Regain Control
We can help you create a comprehensive, fully integrated document management program that gives you complete visibility and access to all your business records — whatever form they are in and wherever they reside. In turn, our enhanced access and control can speed business processes and decision making, improve customer service, and support compliance requirements.

With Iron Mountain's document management solutions, the walls disappear and companies have a single vendor to help manage their transition to electronic processes. With an integrated solution, there is no unnecessary transportation. The record can be taken off the shelf in a record center, scanned, and loaded into an electronic repository, without that piece of paper ever leaving the building.

In addition, because Iron Mountain offers unique intelligent scanning, costs can be greatly reduced. These costs are  spread out over a month-to-month basis since Iron Mountain can host the entire solution — further helping a company optimize their budget .

Finally, as with all Iron Mountain services, a company can recognize the benefits of business continuity, knowing that in the unfortunate case that disaster strikes, its records and information are still safe and accessible.
