Posted by on

Electronic Document Management System for manufacturing industry

The manufacturing industry is nothing less than the backbone of any country. For example, the manufacturing industry contributes around 17% of the total GDP. Moreover, the industry has been growing at a rate of 9-10% every year since 2003. But, these facts and figures are not what make it the backbone of the country. It is the importance and contribution of the manufacturing industry that makes it so. The industry fulfills the thousands of needs of billions of people in day-to-day life. Vehicles, packed food, clothes, medicines, lifestyle products, and other million of needs are fulfilled by the manufacturing industry only.

But, do you know what the backbone of the manufacturing industry is? It is the documentation and record-keeping process of the industry. Manufacturing firms have a phrase common in them, “If it is not noted down, it didn’t happen“. So, documents are more important than the actual transaction taking place.

Electronic Document Management System is a digital platform to keep these important assets of the industry safe, secure and well-managed. There are thousands of documents such as purchase, supply, sell, cash flow, name, companies, raw material, labor cost, etc. So, the document management system provides the integrated platform for the efficient management of these documents.

For better understanding, the following are the five use cases of Electronic Document Management System in the manufacturing industry:

Streamlining the different stages of manufacturing

First of all, the Electronic Document Management System helps to streamline the documentation process of manufacturing firms. It will provide an integrated platform for document management while still maintaining the different documents in different sections. So, the system will not mix up the data of marketing, raw material, sales, supply, salary, and logistics. However, it can be easily found on an integrated platform. So, becomes easy to store and manage all the important documents on a single platform. Hence EDMS provides a convenient and easy method for document management.

Search documents relevant to sales, production, supply or anything instantly

A manufacturing firm generates thousands of documents every year. So, getting the right document at the right time is nothing less than a miracle. Electronic Document Management System makes this miracle a part of your daily working routine. First of all, it works on an integrated platform. So, user can search any document within a moment. However, OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is the other feature that makes the searching process even easier. OCR helps to search for the document even if you don’t remember the name of the document. It can search the document with any keyword embedded in the document.

Share the document automatically with other parties

In manufacturing industry, Sharing the documents and papers from one stakeholder to another one is a big task. So, EDMS makes it simpler for you. As per the command of the user, the right document will be forwarded to the right stakeholder at the right time automatically. Moreover, even if you need to put a signature on the document, EDMS has the option for that as well.

Better control of documents

Control is a “must-have” requirement for the document in the manufacturing industry. So, Electronic Document Management System provides complete control of each document. With the help of EDMS, you will have complete authority to give access to a document. If you want to give access to a specific document to a specific person, EDMS allows you to do so.

Ahead of the curve for safety

The Electronic Document Management System enhances the safety of documents to a significant level. It not only gives them access feature to the user but also provides traceability options to the users. EDMS can trace any document very efficiently. EDMS has the capability to track any activity such as opening the document, sharing the document, forwarding the document, editing the document, the user who received or sent the document. Hence, it elevates the safety and security of a document significantly.

Wrapping Up

Re-shape your Documentation Process- Shake Hands with Emerging Technology

Posted by on

documentation process

Papers were invented 2000 years ago in China which changed the face of communication forever. The appearance and ingredients of paper have changed but the purpose remained the same. The invention in any age takes place according to the need of that specific time. So, the invention of paper was undoubtedly a marvelous discovery at a time when information was limited and the use of information was also limited.

But today we live in the age of information. Millions of paper sheets are used every hour, maybe never to be looked at again. So, it indicates perfectly that the invention of paper was not meant to support the management of information in the 21st century. That’s why docEdge is here, to make the documentation process efficient, smooth, and faster.

I can bet when the paper was discovered, there were no terminologies like corporations, mail, hacking, stakeholders, breaching, etc. As a result, documents were more than sufficient to fulfill the requirements. But today, embedding the information on a piece of paper is not sufficient but the management of the information is more important. docEdge is designed considering the same.

OCR – Search Any Document with Just a Random Keyword You Remember

Posted by on

(ocr) optical character recognition

Time is money and it is never a good idea to waste it searching for a document from folder to folder and file to file. If you are above the age of 20, I can bet you must have experienced the same scenario in your life. We all know a person who spends the whole of his life providing the right document at the right place at right time. Yesterday, it used to take a month to deliver a message from one address to another one. But today, it takes just a moment. Kudos to technology.

Introduction to OCR

So don’t you think, the technology must be having a solution for this documentation problem as well? Obviously, it has, and the name of the solution is Optical Character Recognition. The solution has such capability that let alone the folder, you don’t even need to remember the name of the document to search.

So, OCR is basically a feature that makes the number of tasks very easy. There is no longer a need to store the piles of documents in your office when you can do it on the digital podium. Here, we are not asking you to store thousands of documents images on the computers. OCR is very ahead of it. We understand that storing the documents is not enough because editing, signing, and retrieving the documents are more important functions of a document. That’s where the OCR shows up.

Working principle of OCR

When you scan the document, OCR technology will read each and every word and will save it as a pdf file instead of an image. But wait, it is a very small portion of what OCR can do. It is obvious that you will save your document with a name. But remembering the name of multiple documents is the real headache, isn’t it? Here comes the OCR. Instead of putting the name of the document, now you will be putting the random keyword that you remember from the document, and boom, OCR will bring the document right in front of you.

Most of the time, we don’t remember the name of a document but remember what the document carried in it. So, OCR makes this little information sufficient to get the document and present it to you within moments.

Functions of OCR

1. Scans the document, not the image: most document scanners are capable of capturing the image only. On the other hand, OCR helps to capture the real document, its properties & information to save it in the digital format.

2. Reads the text: to ensure that you don’t have to remember the name of the document, OCR technology reads every word of it. Every single text is fed into the system to provide the best experience for you.

3. Makes searching easier and more fun: you are not a machine to cram everything and no one understands it better than OCR. So, just type in some words you remember about the document and OCR will provide you with the right document at the right place at right time.

Wrapping Up

So, it can be stated that Optical Character Recognition is an effective solution to provide relief from the headache of finding out the right document from the pile without having sufficient information. With OCR, you don’t only store and manage your documents in the digital format, but you also enhance their traceability and availability. Optical character recognition takes you a step closer to the automation of documents.
