Digital personnel dossiers
At the headquarters of the construction technology group Hilti, 1900 paper-based personnel dossiers were digitized with the support of Arcplace so that they could be transferred to the existing SAP system as searchable electronic PDF documents.
The scanning specialists from Arcplace also supported the HR team at Hilti in defining the structure of the future digital personnel dossiers and the corresponding document types.
So that the documents could be archived in a structured manner, the scan operator manually recorded the personnel number and document type for each document during the scanning process.
After validation, a PDF/A file with searchable content was generated for each document. At the end of the project, the digital personnel dossiers were transferred to an external hard disk, from which they could be easily entered into Hilti's SAP business process solution.
