Impact on Crime at Police Authorities
With security high on the national agenda at present, the IMPACT Programme was set up to deliver a national system to support police intelligence and secure the medium and long term future of the Police National Computer. The scanning and indexing of existing paper based records is key to implementing the data-based policing initiatives and Preview has been making its own impact in helping the Police Authorities achieve this.
Microfilm Scanning – less James Bond, more Open All Hours
While microfilms used to be ‘for your eyes only’, now it’s important that the information they contain can be accessed and viewed by anyone. By scanning your microfilms, you can now store them digitally along with the rest of your records and information, giving you complete indexing of the material as well as immediate access to it.
Keeping our Medical Records healthy
In response to the NHS's Electronic Records Management initiative, Primary Care Trusts and GP practices are working towards the digitisation of all patient records. We have been working with a number of PCTs and GP surgeries to convert all their paper to digital images while ensuring the accurate scanning and total security of the information.
Preview is Growing!
We are pleased to announce the arrival of a number of new members of the Preview team as we continue to expand the range and level of the scanning services that we provide. We would like to introduce you to some of this new band.
Cowes Ahoy!
Maintaining the tradition started last year, Preview is again venturing onto the high seas during Cowes Week. This year, we will be navigating a 12m X yacht called “In X Celsis” around the Solent, ably assisted by many of our clients who will hopefully be enjoying themselves as much as last year. We will be sending out invitations next week and hope that many of you will be able to join us.
