Kodak Alaris has announced the formation of strategic cooperation with Emmedi, an Italian firm specializing in banking application development. The two companies will work together to provide banks with a packed check processing solution that is efficient, dependable, and cost-effective.
The solution delivers best-in-class decoding performance that is far superior to traditional cheque scanners. It features Kodak S2000 Series Scanners combined with Emmedi’s 4Cheque application.
Naji Kazak, General Manager – Middle East, Africa, Turkey & Russia of the Alaris division of Kodak Alaris, says, “Faced with aging infrastructure and a rapidly transforming industry, banks are under continuous pressure to reduce cost, simplify workflows, and improve the customer experience, all while ensuring confidentiality and compliance with data handling requirements.”
He said, “Kodak Alaris is keenly aware of these challenges and constantly brings technology and innovation to market to address these issues. The latest collaboration with Emmedi is one such innovation designed to enhance the versatility of our scanning devices and help banks do away with traditional cheque scanners and their associated costs.”
“From 2011, with our best-seller product 4Cheque, Emmedi has played a key role in the digital revolution and in the paper-less process that involved Italian banks and extended to over 100,000+ software installations across global institutions. In Kodak Alaris, we have found a partner that shares our vision to offer innovative solutions to optimize document management. We believe that this joint solution will find rapid uptake among banks that are looking to further their digital transformation ambitions,” concludes Sara Nonini, Key Account Manager at Emmedi.
The Kodak S2000 Series is a line of network/wireless and USB-connected desktop scanners that provide a very efficient option for scanning small, fragile documents such as checks. 4Cheque is a novel decoding interface included in the S2000 Scanners that can be readily incorporated into banking programs and provides all standard check scanner functions.
The solution provides ideal decoding results in today’s climate, which is characterized by an increasing demand for automated processes. It can scan MICR (CMC7 and E13B) and optical (OCR-A, OCR-B, numerical and alphanumerical) fonts as well as barcodes, ensuring secure and consistent data.
The software has made thousands of workers’ duties easier, which saves time and reduces foot traffic between the front and back offices. The software is available in six languages and is completely interoperable with the world’s most widely used electronic banking systems. Furthermore, the new dematerialization legislation enables 4Cheque to decipher the coding lines of bank checks from every jurisdiction in the globe with pinpoint accuracy.
