2dA work floor for digitisation and document processing
2dA work floor for digitisation and document processing

2dA digitises archives, heritage and files for sustainable digital access

Approach

We do not start from a standard scan line, but from material, structure, risk and use.

Sectors

For archives, libraries, museums, public bodies, companies and other document-intensive organisations.

About 2dA

2dA connects scanning, restoration, archive processing, metadata, OCR, anonymisation, AI applications and storage into one logical line, with in-house restorers, archivists, junior archivists, ICT specialists and programmers.

Where 2dA makes the difference

At 2dA, disciplines genuinely connect. Restorers assess fragile material before it enters the scan line. Archivists and junior archivists review ordering, description and metadata. ICT specialists and programmers make sure software, quality control, access and AI build on that substantive basis. That is how the digital result remains usable later on.

From our own scan line to the customer environment

Some trajectories run entirely on the 2dA work floor. Others specifically require on-site digitisation, a temporary production line at the customer site or a scanning-on-demand solution in an environment where the client already works with their own scanners. 2dA can let those forms coexist, so logistics, security, capacity and user demand reinforce each other instead of colliding.

People and technology on one work floor

2dA organises processes so that quality, support and development advance together. That creates space for specialist work, but also for roles that can be learned and expanded step by step. The result is a working environment in which technology supports people and opportunities are also created for employees who are further from the labour market.

Why organisations choose 2dA

Many digitisation trajectories get stuck on exactly the same issues: the material is fragile, the ordering is unclear, the volumes are large, privacy is sensitive or the digital delivery does not fit how people later want to search and work. 2dA approaches that differently. We do not start from a standard scan line, but from your collection, your workflow and the purpose of the digital outcome. Restorers, archivists, junior archivists and technical specialists can review that route together from the start, so quality, context and execution stay aligned.

Services that connect logically

2dA connects scanning, restoration, archive processing, metadata, OCR, anonymisation, AI applications and storage into one logical line, with in-house restorers, archivists, junior archivists, ICT specialists and programmers. That means a trajectory does not end with files alone, but continues into findability, control, management and access. That coherence is exactly what makes the difference between a digital collection and a workable digital information source.

For which organisations

We work for archives, libraries, museums, heritage institutions, governments, executive organisations, companies and other organisations with valuable or intensively used information. Sometimes preservation is central. Sometimes retrieval speed. Sometimes control, privacy or scale. In every case, the same question applies: how do we make information more usable without losing control?

More than one route is possible

A trajectory can begin with restoration and continue into digitisation. But it can also start with scanning on demand, grow into a fully organised service at the client and later be extended with metadata, anonymisation, AI or archive storage. That scalability is exactly what makes 2dA suitable for organisations looking not just for a supplier, but for a substantively strong growth path.
