Introduction

Piql’s ambition is to reshape long-term data storage and digital preservation with a holistic approach to solving our client's problems and providing benefits with our services. We make our clients valuable data secure and accessible regardless of future technological developments. Our solution is designed for maintaining the integrity of the data while ensuring that it can be reproduced at some point in the future.

Clients appreciate that we have a great technology for secure long-term storage and digital preservation of their data, but in many cases, are not fully "there" yet.

Based on learning from engaging with clients across various segments in many countries over the years, we have learnt and understood that clients have needs, problems and pains to overcome before they can consider our core services. We call these challenges ‘upstream’. For example, there are important needs to meet before the question/issue of long-term storage or digital preservation comes up.

THE PURPOSE OF PIQL PLUG-IN SERVICES:

Piql Plug-in Services (as they "plug-in" to our core services) is a tool to engage with clients earlier in their preservation journey.

The Plug-in Services are a significant step forward in our holistic approach, reflecting our focus on building strong partnership strategies to enable a robust business eco-system to support needs within our key verticals and segments. Integrating multiple services from several Plug-in Partners together to holistically address our client's needs, problems or pains enables us to offer a complete end-to-end solution and position Piql Services much more attractively for clients. Our Plug-in Partners have unique insights and extensive experience within their domain of expertise, and by including their service in our Service Journey, Piql can leverage the strengths and references of these partners. Internally we refer to Plug-in Partners (as the providers of the Plug-in Services) – but externally we don't use this term, we only refer to Piql. The Plug-in Services should always be presented as Piql Services to not confuse clients. Piql Partners will take holistic responsibility for the complete delivery to clients, including one or more Plug-in Services.

CURRENT PLUG-IN SERVICES:

The current Plug-in Services extends from helping to organise and catalogue both physical and digital archives, storage of originals (after being organised and digitised) as well as a wide range of digitization services. Our digitisation services are actually a digital transformation – more than a traditional digitisation service. We transform analogue based information, content and objects with the purpose of creating added value that enables both instant access through advanced search and retrieval and long-term preservation with the original data and related index and metadata integrated into a consistent "preservation package".

The following are the current Plug-in Services:

• Archival planning & cataloguing • Storage of originals • Paper based digitisation: o Documents o Books o Journals o Newspapers o Large formats and maps • Photo digitisation and restoration • Micro and X-ray film digitization

o Microfilm o Microfiche o Industrial X-rays • Multimedia digitisation

o Film digitisation and restoration o Audio and video digitisation and restoration o Tape extraction, conversion and digitisation

• 3D object digitisation • Optical Character Recognition (OCR) • Manuscript interpretation • Traditional film-out

Since there are massive amounts of irreplaceable and valuable information and objects that needs to be digitized, - this also corresponds in a similar opportunity for secure data storage and long-term digital preservation.

OTHER GOALS OF LAUNCHING PIQL PLUG-IN SERVICES:

The collaboration with the Plug-in Partners will be truly win-win since we in Piql can bring them to new market opportunities in new countries at a very attractive cost for them. Piql will be their extended sales force.

Engaging "upstream" in the preservation journey will accelerate our learning process and therefore our competence and ability share our insights and to create benefits for our clients.

The Plug-in Services is a tool for creating new ways to address target verticals/segments and to open new business development opportunities.

We are confident that this plug-in initiative will act as an added-value tool in your efforts to build sustainable business in your market. Please contact HQ if you have any questions or require further support.

HOW TO WORK WITH THE PLUG-IN PARTNERS:

This booklet provides you as a Piql partner with an overview of the Plug-in Services our clients can utilize. You can find detailed descriptions of each Plug-in Service in individual documents.

Note that some Plug-in Services are provided by several Plug-in Partners. You are free to choose what Plug-in Partner to work with, but please do not hesitate to contact HQ for assistance. Contact details of all Plug-in Partners are included in this document. You shall always contact the Plug-in Partners directly to discuss specific cases, solutions and create compelling proposals. The contract for the services should be established between the Piql Partner and Plug-in Partner directly. The Piql Partner shall inform Piql AS about the contact and a potential contract.

About: Beskid Plus is a family-owned company. Over 20 years back, the company was the first in Poland to offer acid-free storage products for various kinds of collections. Beskid Plus has been working closely with the environment of Polish archivists and carefully following both European and global trends in archiving. The company has been able to extend the range of products over the years.

Beskid Plus knows very well that proper storage of collections is not an abstract matter, interesting only to a few archivists who work in inaccessible institutions. It is a matter of importance to all of us, as those who benefit from culture, as readers and as citizens. It is a matter of preserving cultural heritage for future generations. It is our cultural “to be or not to be.” Beskid Plus is aware of this responsibility, and therefore the best quality possible is what they care about at every step of the way: from the choice of paper, paperboard and cardboard, which is imported from numerous places in Europe and worldwide, through dedication to every little detail at the stage of box and folder production, to proper packaging of finished products for transport and delivery. The storage products comply with the strict requirements of ISO 9706 and ISO 16245 international standards. Beskid Plus is the leading supplier to the Polish National Archives, and in the recent years the company has been gaining more and more clients abroad, most of all in Austria, Germany and Scandinavian countries. The storage products are used to store and protect the most valuable collections of Polish and European archiving institutions, libraries and museums.
