The Challenge: Stacks of Documents that Seemed Impossible to Manage

When Lucy Adame-Clark took office as the Bexar County Clerk, she recognized the urgent need for innovation and modernization within the county clerk's office. With a 40-year backlog of document archives, Bexar County needed a solution that could quickly digitize records from all county offices and make them accessible to the court system in real time. The solution had to be intuitive, user-friendly, and capable of handling various document types from multiple departments.

For expert advice, she brought in Carlos Gutierrez, VP of Sales and Marketing for Compu-Data International. He recommended Kodak Alaris solutions, and this started a digitization journey that would streamline document management, improve efficiency, and harmonize data across multiple departments.
