Case studies

Real projects. Real transformation.

Government records, legal archives, insurance files and manufacturing data. Four projects, each starting from a different place — and each taking information further than the scan.

From historic archives to operational data.

The projects

Transformations that changed what was possible.

These four are among the largest projects we can share publicly. They represent only a fraction of the work and experience behind Archives International, strengthened by the decades of specialist expertise of our German partner, InfoScan.

  1. Department of Information

    Government · Historical archives

    Malta’s official record since the 1800s. Now searchable.

    One million book-format documents on fragile paper, consultable only as physical books. The task: make them searchable in three languages — without putting the originals at risk.

  2. DNotaries

    Legal · Notarial records

    1.25 million legal records — and the need to find any one of them.

    Contracts, deeds, research and KYC files in humid storage. The firm asked for a way to organise them — and got an indexed, searchable archive built to keep taking new contracts.

  3. Mapfre Middlesea & MSV Life Insurance

    Insurance

    15 million insurance records — into a system someone else had chosen.

    An earlier provider had not finalised the first 1.2 million documents after roughly four months. We took on the full archive and delivered it into Mapfre’s existing document management system.

  4. General Softdrinks Limited

    Manufacturing

    Ongoing

    When digitising documents isn’t enough.

    Production and logistics records, from bottling to delivery — the starting point of an ongoing programme to turn manual information into structured, connected operational data.

Our approach to proof

We would rather show you what we actually did.

Every figure on these pages comes from the project documentation. Where work is still ongoing, we say so — and we don’t present plans as results.

Your project could be the next transformation we document.

Tell us what you are dealing with, and what you need your information to become.
