The way we use, store, and manage data is changing rapidly
The exponential growth of data being created is growing quicker than ever before, making it more difficult to control and access vital business information.
Crown are one of the UK’s leading go-to partners, proving a suite of document scanning and associated services across the UK and Ireland. We pride ourselves on the high quality we deliver to our clients, and the simplicity we help drive though organisations of all sizes in accessing their vital business information.

Our scanning services support clients in all sectors, whether that be:
- Enabling police forces to access their officers and employees’ personnel records
- Helping the NHS to provide patient care in delivering medical records quickly and efficiently, or;
- Supporting our many law firms in securely accessing sensitive case files so they can continue to work from the office, their home or the courtroom.
The world today is very different, with many companies adopting a hybrid working pattern, but the need to access records securely and in a timely fashion remains
Our purpose of ‘Making it simper to live, work, and do business anywhere in the world’ underpins the importance of our services, and we are proud of how our bespoke solutions deliver many benefits to our clients. Not only in reducing costs, improving data security or removing many hours of labour-intensive tasks, but also driving efficiencies, improving customer satisfaction, and bettering the daily work lives of their employees.

Our Technology
Crown’s fleet of high spec production scanners are capable of capturing images quickly and to a very high quality, being able to scan up to 600dpi in Black and White, Colour, or Greyscale.
Our software ensures that a quality control process is in place, reviewing image quality and rejecting images for rescanning where they do not meet our quality standards. This has enabled our 99.9% image quality rate. All scanning is completed under our BS10008 accreditation for evidential weight and legal admissibility of electronic information.
We can scan all sizes of documents, from small receipts up to large A0 plans and drawings, proving imaging output in many file formats such as PDF, TIFF and JPEG.
By default, we export searchable documents using our Optical Character Recognition (OCR) server, enabling additional searching tools in finding key data within the content of each file, or the extraction of data from invoices or forms, enabling faster response times to what previously had been a very laborious and costly process.
Our Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) capability means that we can extract handwritten data as part of a scanning programme and our Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) tools enable us to automatically mark paper surveys, tests and exam paper.
Our team of specialists are with you every step of the way, helping you scope the correct programme with our extensive industry knowledge.
