Digitization is the process of scanning paper documents and converting them into electronic formats. Most of the companies are scanning documents, in order to save cost, increase productivity, and also to improve access to the information. The digitization of documents can prevent the loss of sensitive information by providing backup in case of loss or damage to the physical documents. The high-speed scanners are used to scan documents into digital images. For instance, in April 2021, iGuana, a Belgium-based company that provides digitization services, announced collaboration with Qidenus Technologies, an Austria-based company that manufactures V-shaped and robotic scanners, to enhance Qidenus Mastered Book Scanner to ensure top scan quality and top performance in book scanning environment.

Document outsourcing consists of intelligent character recognition (ICR) and optical character recognition (OCR) methods, in order to convert hand-written documents into electronic information. Moreover, due to the increasing demand for outsourcing document scanning services in organizations, document outsourcing service providers are trying to solve a business challenge by providing value-added services to their customers. For instance, Ricoh Ltd., specializing in office imaging equipment, production print solutions, document management systems, and IT services, introduced document process outsourcing services for organizations in order to outsource their document business processes. The outsourced service providers help organizations to reduce the overall cost, enhance productivity, and improve workflow efficiencies in the organizations.

The increasing demand for document scanning services in the logistics sector in Japan is expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period.

These services are used by both small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and large enterprises to keep track of their workflow. For instance, in September 2021, Ripcord Inc., a U.S.-based leading robotics digitization company announced joint venture with Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd., a Japan-based company, which manufactures xerographic and document-related products and services, in order to bring digital transformation technologies in Japan and the APAC region. Through this joint venture, Ripcord Inc. and Fuji Xerox help their customers to streamline operations, accelerate digitization, reduce costs, reduce labor costs associated with digitizing and improve customer experiences.
