Hugh Symons is able to provide support and guidance to organisations that operate in-house document scanning set-ups and are looking to gain accreditation to BS 10008 (Evidential Weight and Legal Admissibility of Electronic Information).

According to BSI, accreditation to BS10008: ‘is designed to help you verify and authenticate all your information to avoid the legal pitfalls of information storage’.

Having been one of the first information management organisations to achieve BS10008 accreditation, Hugh Symons is externally audited annually to ensure continuing compliance to BS10008’s rigorous standards. Our experience and understanding of this British Standard means that we are able to provide consultancy services and ‘health-check’ assessments and reports on document scanning processes and workflows to help organisations achieve 10008 accreditation.
