Disaster-Proof Your Business: How Document Scanning Protects You from the Unexpected

By: USA IMAGING, Inc.

When people think of document scanning, they usually think efficiency. Fewer filing cabinets, faster searches, easier sharing. But here’s a truth most businesses overlook: scanning your documents can be the difference between recovery and ruin after a disaster.

Fire. Flood. Earthquake. Theft.

What do all of these have in common?
They don’t give you a warning—and they don’t care how important your paper records are.

Businesses lose millions of dollars each year in damages caused by disasters—especially when vital documents are stored only in physical form. That’s where USA Imaging, Inc. steps in.

Scanning = Risk Insurance for Your Records

1. Fire-Proof, Water-Proof, Theft-Proof Backups
Digitized documents can be stored off-site or in the cloud. No matter what happens at your physical location, your data is safe and accessible.

2. Faster Recovery Time
Insurance claims. Vendor contracts. Building permits. HR files. These aren’t just papers—they’re your business’s backbone. Scanned documents let you recover operations faster and with fewer headaches.

3. Compliance Continuity
Many industries—medical, legal, financial—require records retention for years. Don’t risk being out of compliance because the originals were destroyed. Digital files ensure you’re always covered.

4. Remote Access When You Need It Most
Natural disasters often make physical office access impossible. Digitized files mean your team can access what they need—from anywhere.

Who Should Be Scanning Now?

• Law firms with sensitive client files

• Construction companies with large project blueprints and contracts
