National Trade Register Office of Romania Selects Captiva's InputAccel for Input Management Needs

Government Office to Speed Business Processes, Better Serve Citizens

Captiva Software Corporation a leading provider of input management solutions, announced today that the National Trade Register Office (NTRO) of Romania has selected InputAccel(R), Captiva's flagship document capture solution, to capture and process the more than 77 million pages of business registration and trade documents it receives and processes annually.

The value of the contract to Captiva is in excess of $200,000. The deal was facilitated by the Star Group, Captiva's systems integration partner and reseller in Eastern Europe.

The NTRO will use InputAccel at its 42 offices throughout Romania to capture incoming paper documents and convert more than 3 million pages of archived documents into digital content.

The electronic data will then be delivered to an IBM DB2 Content Manager enterprise content management (ECM) platform. NTRO will grant secure access to the documents to its employees, other government agencies and citizens.

"The National Trade Register needed a robust document capture solution that would support a large number of concurrent users and a substantial volume of incoming documents, and be scalable enough to sustain future growth," said Mark Lewis, Captiva's Vice President of Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) Operations.

"We were pleased to work with IBM and the Star Group to meet the NTRO's desires. InputAccel will allow NTRO to speed business processes, better serve Romanian citizens and significantly reduce the amount of manual intervention needed to process paper documents."
