Digital Mail

Transform your mail. Accelerate your business

Streamline mail operations and connect data digitally across organizational silos

Physical mail contains vital organizational information, from invoices to legal records. For distributed teams, however, manually managing this mail creates a major headache. It's expensive, error-prone, and a security risk. This not only delays crucial actions on important documents—potentially jeopardizing finances and client relationships—but also prevents you from gaining key insights from data needed for essential workflows like mortgage approvals and claims. As your organization gets bigger, these problems just get magnified, making it tough to scale your operations effectively.

Say goodbye to mail inefficiencies with Iron Mountain Digital Mail. Our solution transforms physical mail into actionable, digital assets, and automatically routes it to the intended recipient or designated workflow. In an end-to-end journey, we don’t just scan and hand over the documents. Unlike other solutions that stop there, our approach is truly comprehensive, spanning from physical receipt to disposition and integration into your business outcomes—all with an auditable chain of custody.

Frequently asked questions

We’ve got your back with answers to some of our frequently asked Digital Mail questions.

How does Iron Mountain make sure that mail is routed to the correct recipients?

Each user can be assigned an individual Mailbox and/or be part of a user group tailored to specific tasks and document types. Mail is identified and routed based on data security rules designed to direct it to the appropriate individual or team. Iron Mountain’s implementation team works closely with your organization to establish the appropriate roles, routing logic, and security measures needed to maintain data protection and privacy.

Who can access my mail?

Iron Mountain’s implementation team meets with your organization to learn how you wish to handle mail: by individual, department, or a specific workflow.

During implementation, Iron Mountain configures your users, user groups, and data security rules, providing the proper people with access to the mail. Out of office forwarding automatically reroutes mail or tasks to a colleague.

What happens to mail that doesn’t follow standard routing rules?

When mail arrives and automated routing rules don’t fully address the correct routing, Digital Mail smoothly reroutes it to the Exception Manager to review and appropriately reroute with intuitive tools. This streamlined workflow reduces disruptions, accelerates resolutions, and keeps operations running smoothly.
