The Challenge

Solution

Ricoh Canada recommended the implementation of Laserfiche, a document management solution that Ricoh Canada installs and customizes. With 492 customers utilizing the Laserfiche document management platform in Canada, Ricoh Canada is the largest supplier and custom integrator of Laserfiche document management systems in the country.

The Algonquin College Registrar’s Office had purchased multifunction devices (MFDs) and copiers from Ricoh Canada. 

Ricoh set up the Laserfiche document management system and used built-in utilities to customize the workflow process so the new system could capture more records in more fields more rapidly. 

Ricoh imported all existing digital records into the new system. Although the records management system was new, it functioned seamlessly for students and other stakeholders served by the Registrar’s Office.
