IBM Datacap consulting
IBM Datacap consulting for capture that keeps up with the business
IBM Datacap runs critical document capture at many organizations, often with applications and rulesets that have grown for years. We build new Datacap solutions, upgrade existing ones, and bring troubled Datacap projects back on track.
Sound familiar?
Where Datacap environments struggle
- Your Datacap applications have grown complicated, and every change takes longer than it should.
- An upgrade is overdue, and nobody is sure what it will break.
- Recognition and validation results aren’t good enough, so operators correct too much by hand.
- Datacap needs to exchange data with other business systems.
- Your Datacap expertise left with a former employee or vendor.
What we do
IBM Datacap, built and maintained by certified hands
John holds the IBM Datacap v9.0 Deployment Professional certification and IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture technical mastery in both practical application and product fundamentals, and has built Datacap solutions for government and enterprise clients.
Datacap and TotalAgility are both core platforms for us, so our advice is about fit, not preference. If Datacap is the right home for your capture, we make it work well. If another platform fits better, we say so.

Questions
Frequently asked
Do you still work on IBM Datacap?
Yes. Datacap is a core platform for us, alongside Kofax TotalAgility. We build, upgrade, and support it.
Can you take over a Datacap application someone else built?
Yes. We start by reviewing the applications and rulesets as they are, and document them as we go.
Should we stay on Datacap or move to another platform?
It depends on your documents, volumes, systems, and plans. We convert other capture products to Datacap, and Datacap solutions to TotalAgility, so we can recommend whichever genuinely fits.
How do we get started?
Book a 30-minute call or send us a note; we usually reply within one business day. Many clients begin with a Capture Health Check: a fixed-scope review with written findings and a prioritized plan, yours to keep whether or not you hire us for the work.
