Iron Mountain scans for new biz

Boston’s Iron Mountain Inc. is bridging its conventional storage business and its digital-storage operations with a new unit that converts paper documents to digitized images.

Although Iron Mountain data centers have been producing digital images for customers for more than a decade, the new division was formed to centralize the business and to produce uniform packaged products.

Known as the document-conversion services unit, already the business is converting 20 million documents a month, company officials said.
