The SDS Group comprises a number of speciality companies, each focused on delivering scanning and DMS solutions tailored to meet the requirements of specific industries.

We specialise in schools’ records management and the digitisation (scanning) of both administrative and heritage archives. We are document management experts and a leading UK scanning-bureau. We offer bespoke solutions to make your essential documents fully searchable and available securely online, giving you quick-and-easy access to your records.

SDS work with nearly 500 UK independent schools and 200 international schools. SDS also provide The ISBA, The ISC, The HMC, IAPS, GSA, The IDPE, SARA, AROPS and the History of Education Society with bespoke turnkey ICT, CRM and Portal back-office systems.

We create the Paperless Office for you. We also digitise every type of administrative document that flows through a school. Over the last 25 years we have developed specific school solutions for every type of legal, administrative and paper based file which a college needs to function with. These services are particularly useful for audit, inspections and inquires to help you meet GDPR requirements.
