Electronic Document Management Systems & Consultancy

What are Electronic Document Management Systems?

An Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) is a purpose-built solution designed for effective document control, allowing members within an organisation to store, organise, format and manage digital documents securely.

It replaces inefficient paper records with a streamlined system that ensures regulatory compliance, enhances productivity, and improves existing workflows within your organisation. This centralised and secure system helps reduce existing inefficiencies, enables improvement of existing processes in regard to collaboration and document management, and offers real-time access to critical information.

OSS has the ability to integrate with any system, to date we have integrated with Emis, TPP SystmOne, OneAdvanced Docman, NHS NDR (National Document Repository), Genisys Technology and DocUware.

Benefits of Document Management Systems

A good document management system offers businesses numerous benefits by improving efficiency, ensuring regulatory compliance, and strengthening data security. It allows people within organisations to find documents quickly, reducing wasted time and the need to rely solely on physical files and searching through filing cabinets.

Another benefit is that certain automated process within a document management system can help minimise manual data entry processing time and errors, and seamless file sharing and file storage can help foster collaboration and a streamlined workflow.

In addition, implementing such a system can help an organisation think about disaster recovery and safeguard against unpredictable external factors such as building fires, flooding or water damage by protecting critical files from an unexpected loss.

By eliminating the need for large upfront investments in physical storage, businesses can also achieve significant cost savings by repurposing the space they regain from scanning and storing all their critical documents digitally.
