Kodak Alaris is “taking the complexity out of information capture,” with the launch of its Alaris IN2 Ecosystem. It combines scanners, software, services and partnerships, and is designed to transform data chaos into critical information to drive efficiency.
The Alaris IN2 Ecosystem helps organisations extract information from documents to increase productivity, enhance customer experiences and ultimately drive revenue growth. Today, businesses and governments are overwhelmed with the exponential growth of data. According to Pricewaterhouse Coopers and Iron Mountain, 43 percent of companies obtain little tangible benefit from their information, while 23 percent derive no benefit whatsoever. The inability to efficiently capture information from paper-based documents and integrate with digital workflows leads to complexity and lost opportunity across organisations.
“Within this challenge lies a massive opportunity to drive growth and efficiency,” said Rick Costanzo, President and General Manager, Kodak Alaris Information Management. “Companies that master digital transformation are far better positioned to differentiate themselves from competitors and win in the marketplace.”
The question for most organisations is not whether to embrace digital transformation, but where to begin. “By combining our award-winning scanner portfolio, software and services, the Alaris IN2 Ecosystem makes it simple for organisations to begin extracting information from documents and integrating it into business processes,” said Costanzo.
The Ecosystems’ unique approach claims to deliver the ‘right fit’ with customer environments, the ‘right experience’ that simplifies information capture, and the ‘right results’ that deliver superior business value and higher ROI. Partner and developer communities play a vital role in the ecosystem through their ability to connect, configure and create new solutions that meet customers’ needs, now and into the future.
Healthcare is one industry that could particularly benefit from this approach, according David Whitton, regional sales director for Middle East and Africa, Kodak Alaris. “It’s no longer about selling a product out of a box,” he said. “We’re now selling an entire solution that can drastically improve medical outcomes by ensuring that decision processes are more efficient and better treatment is given, which ultimately saves lives. This ecosystem can be particularly applicable to a hospital environment, as doctors can quickly and remotely extract information via the electronic system, which makes the whole hospital sector much more efficient.”
A series of scanner, software, and service enhancements underpin the launch of the Alaris IN2 Ecosystem. These enhancements are available worldwide immediately.
