Case Study - Companies House

Background

Based in Cardiff, the organisation collects data from some 1.4 million live UK companies. Its main role is the registration and provision of UK business information. Since March 1995, over 25 million documents have become available online. The total grows by more than 5 million per annum.

The Challenge

UK companies are legally required to submit their annual audited accounts to Companies House. Their submissions arrive in a variety of formats, eg: paper, disc, magnetic tape, etc.

The Solution

Transmedia collected the information and within 24 hours converted it to the desired medium including Computer Output to Microfilm (COM) and Computer Output to Laser Disk (COLD).
