Scanned documents can be legal if processes are managed properly. The British Standards Institute has produced guidelines for the conversion and management of scanned images: BIP0008 and BIP0009. When these guidelines are followed the whole scanning process is strictly managed and audited meaning that we can confidently state who scanned which document and even what time, it is this level of detail that a court will require when declaring a document legally admissible. Simply scanning to PDF from your office scanner or multi-function device is not enough. Once scanned it is also important that access to documents is properly controlled so that no change to the original scanned image is possible, and in some cases, it is necessary to prevent unauthorised persons from viewing the said records. All solutions and services offered by Cull comply fully with BIP0008, BIP0009 and PD0010.
