Shasta Pools & Spas Deploys Document Imaging Solution From eCopy and OptiScan

PHOENIX, AZ, Jul 07 (MARKET WIRE) --
Shasta Pools & Spas has deployed eCopy(TM) ShareScan(R) document imaging
software along with OptiScan eVista(TM) document management software to
support its production and financial processes for building swimming
pools. Shasta Pools & Spas, a family-owned business headquartered in
Arizona, expects to save $500,000 a year through process improvements,
and reduced printing and paper costs by using eCopy and OptiScan together.

A division of Shasta Industries, Inc., Shasta Pools & Spas is the top pool
builder in Arizona and one of the largest pool builders in the country.
According to Steve Ast, Partner and Vice President of Sales & Marketing,
"Shasta Pools has built its reputation by taking care of our customers and
making sound business decisions. The choice to move towards a paperless
system was a win-win. It is great for the environment and reduces overhead
which translates into value for our customers."

With the implementation of OptiScan eVista and eCopy, Shasta has
eliminated the need to make numerous copies of documents for distribution
throughout the company and to external contractors. Documents are
available to all approved users within moments of scanning, allowing for
fast, efficient document retrieval. This approach reduces the cost of
physically moving paper between five sales offices and the corporate
headquarters. It also eliminates the cost of printing, lost or
inconsistent documents, filing and storage.

The OptiScan eVista document management software provides secure,
web-based document access and search capabilities to Shasta employees and
vendors, making contracts and other important documents easy-to-find and
immediately available. Additionally, eVista provides role-based document
security to ensure documents are only accessible for those granted access.

"We were running our copier machines into the ground feeding a costly,
paper-intensive workflow with our pool contracts," said Robert Dye,
Controller at Shasta Pools. "The eCopy/OptiScan solution enables us to
scan contracts right away and make them available both internally and
externally to our vendors in the field. This not only dramatically
decreases excessive paper usage; it also enables a fast and efficient way
for employees to locate and view documents and provides an efficient
service to our vendors."

eCopy document imaging software is operating on 13 multifunction printers
(MFPs) to provide Shasta employees with an intuitive, consistent user
interface across multiple departments, including accounting, design,
purchasing and construction. Shasta simply scans and converts the
paper-based information to Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files,
associates the PDF files with an existing job in the system, and
seamlessly imports them into the eVista system using web services.
Leveraging the PDF standard makes it easy to distribute documents and
provide access to outside vendors.

"We scan our pool layouts and any design changes, making them available to
everyone involved in building a pool. Extending our document workflows
outside our company significantly reduces the chance of mistakes being
made by an outside vendor because all vendors will be working with the
latest document," said Dye.

OptiScan, a provider of capture services, software and hardware solutions
based in Phoenix, Ariz., used the eCopy software development kit to create
the eCopy Connector for eVista, an interface allowing eCopy's document
scanning capabilities to merge seamlessly with OptiScan's eVista document
management solution.

"The eCopy/eVista solution enables Shasta employees to use their MFPs to
make important documents readily available to the vendors and employees
engaged in a project via web access," said Al Hawkins, President of
OptiScan Inc. "Access to each document is assigned and controlled through
role-based access ensuring that the right documents are accessible to the
right people at the right time."
