Centralise Production Documents. Stay Audit-Ready.

The Operational Problem in Manufacturing

Manufacturers generate  massive volumes of documents

Yet many operations still rely on:

• Paper-based filing
• Documents spread across plants
• Shared drives with weak permissions
• Manual invoice capture
• Delays retrieving records during audits

Manufacturers struggle with:

• Scattered storage across PCs and paper
• Slow retrieval of manuals and safety files
• Manual entry of invoices and delivery notes
• Audit readiness gaps

The result? Operational delays. Audit stress. Production risk.

INTELLIGENT AUTOMATION

From Paper Dependency to Operational Control

Before Office Vault
  • Tax invoices and equipment docs spread across plants
  • 1–3 days to retrieve critical documents
  • Manual renaming and filing
  • No real-time visibility
  • Delays during machine failures or audits
After Office Vault
  • All documents centralised in secure cloud
  • Searchable in seconds via AI search
  • Automated OCR extraction
  • Department-level access control
  • Full audit trail and version history
HOW IT WORKS

for Manufacturing

Step 1: Centralised Capture Across Plants

Signed PODs and invoices are:

  • Scanned from local copiers
  • Sent to predefined email accounts
  • Automatically processed and stored

No need to change hardware .

Step 2: AI & OCR Extraction

Office Vault extracts:

  • Invoice number
  • Delivery references
  • Equipment identifiers
  • Compliance data

Automatically indexed and searchable.

Step 3: Secure Filing & Department Access

Documents are:

  • Stored by department
  • Permission-controlled
  • Version-tracked
  • Audit logged

Only authorised personnel can access sensitive technical data.

Step 4: Compliance & Safety Control

Health & Safety files, compliance documentation, and SOPs are:

  • Digitally stored
  • Instantly retrievable
  • Audit-ready at any time

No more scrambling during inspections.

Step 5: Production & Financial Integration

Documents can:

  • Export to accounting systems
  • Sync with ERP workflows
  • Support approval routing and digital signing

Reducing friction between operations and finance.
