Xerox India Limited is planning to introduce in Kolkata its content management software - Docushare - by October this year, in an attempt to offer 'paperless offices' for its customers. |
DocuShare makes it easy for corporates to share ad hoc information more efficiently and allows organisations to do away with the time, labour, and cost of maintaining paper files. |
Xerox DocuShare also supports content management processes across the enterprise, enabling turnkey solutions that could be implemented within a few hours. |
"We would tap education and healthcare clients for this solution as these institutes handle maximum paperwork. This software is license driven and would cost close to Rs 4 lakhs for 20 licenses," said Ravi Venkatraman, director, Xerox Global Services (XGS). |
DocuShare would also offer integrated scanning and imaging solutions as well as secure transmission and image encryption for security-conscious environments such as education and healthcare. |
DocuShare would also support rapid dissemination of information on company intranets or externally facing sites through a range of web-centric editing, management, and publishing tools, protected by security protocols. |
In India, XGS launched operations in 2005 and has more than 70 customers as of now. |
Xerox has also launched its global services division in Kolkata and is looking at companies with over 15,000 employees to pitch for it. |
"Xerox global services aims to provide document management services to corporates. This is expected to reduce cost of operations in any office by close to 30 per cent," Venkatraman claimed. |
XGS also plans to scale up its operations in Kolkata by building a dedicated team of 3 XGS specialists and plans to acquire six more accounts in Kolkata by end of this year. |
The company plans to tap banking, insurance, financial services, and healthcare for its client base in Kolkata. |
Globally, Xerox is a $17.6 billion company of which its services division contributes 1/3rd of its revenues. |
