Scan answer booklets without breaking the binding.
AWT's own OSM answer-sheet scanner — designed and developed exclusively for institutes. Booklets are scanned intact, with no cutting or unbinding, for completely transparent answer-sheet evaluation.
Cutting answer books open breaks trust in evaluation
Conventional sheet-fed scanning forces exam cells to cut or unstitch every answer booklet. That one step creates risk across the entire evaluation process.
Booklets destroyed
Cut or unstitched answer books can never be returned to their original state.
Pages lost or mixed
Loose sheets can be misplaced, misordered or mixed between candidates.
Tampering doubts
Once a booklet is taken apart, it is hard to prove nothing was added or removed.
Extra handling
Cutting, sorting and re-filing loose sheets adds labour and delays results.
The booklet stays bound — from exam hall to archive
The AWT OSM scanner captures each page of a bound answer booklet as it lies open on the scanning bed, so the binding is never touched.
Every scanned booklet moves straight into AWT On-Screen Marking for anonymous digital evaluation, while the original stays intact for re-verification and audit.

Transparency your students, examiners and regulators can see

No need to download scanned images and upload them to a server or ERP — every page syncs to AWT ERP automatically.
Tamper-proof evidence
An intact booklet plus its scan is clear proof that nothing was altered during evaluation.
Secure, anonymous marking
Examiners see scanned answers on screen — never the physical booklet or candidate identity.
Complete audit trail
With AWT OSM, every script, mark and examiner action is recorded and traceable.
Ready for revaluation
Originals remain whole for re-verification, revaluation requests and inspections.
No missing pages
Pages stay bound in sequence, so there is no risk of loss or mix-ups between candidates.

Frequently asked questions
Do answer booklets need to be cut or unstitched before scanning?
+
No. The AWT OSM scanner is designed to scan answer booklets while they are still bound, so there is no cutting, unstitching or removal of the binding at any stage.
Who can buy the OSM answer-sheet scanner?
+
The scanner is designed and supplied exclusively for institutes — universities, autonomous colleges, colleges and examination bodies — as part of a transparent digital evaluation set-up.
Does the scanner work with AWT On-Screen Marking?
+
Yes. Scanned booklets flow directly into AWT On-Screen Marking for anonymous, rubric-based evaluation, moderation and result processing, with a complete audit trail.
Do we need to download scanned images and upload them to a server or ERP?
+
No. The scanner is directly integrated with AWT ERP. Every page is linked to the student's seat number and answer book automatically as it is scanned, so there is no downloading, renaming or manual uploading of images.
What happens to the physical answer booklet after scanning?
+
Because the booklet is never opened up or taken apart, it remains in its original, intact state and can be stored securely for re-verification, revaluation or audit.
