I.R.I.S. and the Canon family

Canon helps customers who want to drive innovation and find new ways to be more competitive. By capturing, managing, storing, sharing, preserving and delivering information, Canon provides fully integrated document management solutions that enable intelligent routing of inbound documents to the right department and seamlessly connect with back-end systems, for businesses that run more efficiently and effectively than ever before where true collaboration among internal teams and external partners are a reality.

I.R.I.S. is an integral part of the whole process and provides unique technologies for document capture, identification, recognition, conversion and compression.

On top of combined solutions implemented by the I.R.I.S. and Canon teams, I.R.I.S. experts work in close collaboration with other members of the Canon family specialized in Information and Output Management in order to enhance document capture solutions. These partnerships allow for the parallel development of fully compatible technologies, resulting in integrated and user-friendly solutions strategic to Canon’s market proposition.

Here is an example of R&D cooperation between I.R.I.S. and Therefore focused on invoice processing, where key information such as line items are not only captured automatically by I.R.I.S. technologies, but directly integrated into Therefore 2013’s new line item fields, allowing for the invoice to continue its journey seamlessly to approval and booking, on any device in or out of the office. In other words, I.R.I.S. as the perfect front-end solution for Therefore.

In addition to its excellent collaboration with Therefore, I.R.I.S. also joins forces with another major member of the Canon family, NT-ware and its Integrated Print & Scan Platform for Canon MFPs uniFLOW. As a result, organizations can now incorporate their entire MFP fleet into advanced business processes such as Invoice Processing or the Digital Mailroom.





And it works! Here is a practical example of how a transport company optimized invoice processing and its related costs thanks to an alliance of Canon MFPs with uniFLOW and I.R.I.S. technologies.
