Over the past decade, the real estate sector in India, like many traditional industries, relied extensively on physical documentation. Ambuja Neotia Group also operated within this framework. Some of the key factors that were commonly encountered during this period included:
- Manual handling of large volumes of documents across projects and departments.
- Locating and retrieving key records such as project files, invoices, agreements, and communications was time and resource-intensive.
- Storage constraints due to the physical space required for document archives.
- Concerns around the security and management of sensitive legal and financial information.
Recognizing the need to digitally transform their documentation workflows post-pandemic, Ambuja Neotia Group turned to Canon India for a reliable, scalable, and future-ready solution. To increase their efficiency in document management, Canon India implemented an integrated solution for Ambuja Neotia Group, combining reliable hardware with intelligent software.
