Capture solutions need to be able to perform capture quickly and efficiently in order to keep pace in today’s unforgiving marketplace. As businesses gather more data and more information, paper and filing cabinets have been supplemented or entirely replaced by digital content and digital repositories. While the amount of digital content that must be managed continues to grow, businesses are simultaneously experiencing tremendous pressure to optimize document capture processes and minimize operational costs. As a result, competitive capture solutions today must be able to meet the demanding requirements for automating intelligent document capture. Regardless of whether data is being captured for archiving or for transactional purposes, capture solutions today must be able to quickly and efficiently perform these tasks in order to remain competitive.

Ferring Pharmaceuticals required the integrity of its electronic lab records containing formulas, clinical trial results and other scientific-intellectual-property data be protected and legally defensible as authentic. It selected Surety’s AbsoluteProof trusted, digital time-stamp solution to lock down “time of creation” and defend the authenticity and legal ownership of its IP, if ever needed, even decades down the road. AbsoluteProof integrated into Ferring’s electronic lab notebooks solved the problem, and reduced the amount of time Ferring’s scientists needed to spend “signing and witnessing” research content, saving hundreds of thousands of dollars annually. Without such a security control, the company would have exposed itself to lost IP claims, rejected patents, and ultimately lost revenue. Read more.
