Covered Bridge Software has experience in records storage and retrieval systems, business process reengineering, and the automating of paper based processes. Our broad technical background and business skills allow us to help clients explore technology options, make informed recommendations, and develop solutions that improve client business operations. The links below take you to more detailed descriptions of the benefits of electronic forms and document management, and samples of solutions we have developed.
Benefits of Digital Document Capture In this day and age of computer technology, more and more companies are turning to digital document capture to enable their businesses to integrate more efficiently with computers and the Internet. Obvious benefits derived from document imaging include:
Digital Solutions for your Documents Imagine sitting at your desk, 8 hours a day and manually inputting field after field of information off of your customers' forms into a data-base. Now realize the potential of Covered Bridge Software to automate this process; the user fills in the electronic forms (complete with form logic that assists users by checking for data validation and required fields with real-time feedback), the user then submits the form, the form with all the completed user information is then automatically loaded into the data-base in just seconds (without any data-entry errors). This is the cost-effective solution for handling your forms. 
Covered Bridge Software can automate, distribute, and manage the forms that drive your business,
such as procurement, purchase requisitions, reporting, recording, asset management, and human resources documents.
Let us replace your standard paper forms with compliant electronic forms that can be stored, filled-in, and
distributed right from your user's desktops. Whether you manufacture goods or provide services, replacing your
paperwork with electronic forms can provide substantial cost savings and increased efficiency throughout
your entire business.
Document Management Solutions A typical document management solution would work as follows - after identifying yourself to the system, clients can perform searches for documents to which they have been granted access by the account administrator at your company. Each document is indexed by criteria that you determine is appropriate. This can include account numbers, social security numbers, text fields, date ranges and more. You can search for documents using these key fields and then view one or more of the resulting hits. Full text searching within documents is another excellent way to find key sections of long documents. Our document viewer is loaded with useful tools for zooming, rotating, printing, faxing and e-mailing of documents directly from the screen. 
Fifteen-minute trips to the file room are reduced to seconds with just the click of a mouse button.
Documents remain safe, secure and immediately accessible when needed. No more document storage costs.
Human labor is reduced and a whole host of related expenses go away completely.
Potential benefits of electronic documents over paper include reduced costs of storage and printing, but more importantly,
more accurate and timely processing of forms and documents, especially those which pass through multiple departments for
review, approval, storage, and retrieval.
Online Forms & Document Processing - Worldwide Assurance for Employees of Public Agencies (WAEPA)
Covered Bridge Software worked with the Worldwide Assurance for Employees of Public Agencies (WAEPA) to improve the
processing and handling of their numerous paper based forms. By providing online forms, WAEPA was able to obtain
numerous benefits and improvements in the handling and processing of the forms.
WAEPA was formed in 1943 during World War II to provide life insurance coverage for civilian employees of the U.S.
Government who were serving overseas. The original name, War Agencies Employees Protective Association, was changed in
1961 to Worldwide Assurance for Employees of Public Agencies.
Online forms offer the benefit of assisting the user in filling out the forms by: 
The use of online forms results in improved efficiency, speed, user impression, minimizing
data entry errors, and time savings by reducing back and forth mail correspondence.
When appropriate, the system would generate and send emails to WAEPA personnel and notify them when action that was required. The technologies used were HTML, JavaScript, Cascading Style Sheets, and Perl. Perl was the programming language used to handle the backend processing of these forms. Online Job Documentation System - University of Maryland, Service Center 
The Online Documentation System was a project to convert the manual paper based documentation associated with the computer
programs used by the University of Maryland System for administrative operation.
This documentation consisted of thousands of documents supporting millions of lines of computer coding. The documentation was converted into HTML format, indexed and cross-referenced. A powerful search and retrieve function was built, along with the capability to browse through the documents in a logical and easy way. Using this web interface, the various University of Maryland Institutions across the state running this software could easily find and view the required documentation. The technologies used were HTML, Unix, Searching and Indexing software, and utilities to convert the documentation into HTML format. Online Meeting Registration - for many different companies
