iCapture™ Selected for California Child Support Document and Image Processing

WALNUT CREEK, Calif.--November 03, 2004

Impression Technology’s iCapture suite of automated data capture software has been selected as one of the core components of the new California Child Support Processing System that will be installed in Sacramento, California in mid-2005. Impression Technology was part of the team that included the Bank of America, First Data Government Solutions and Unisys Corporation in winning this highly competitive procurement.

“This is a significant win for Impression”, stated Mike Tokuyama, the President of Impression Technology. “The iCapture solution has earned its outstanding reputation for high volume data capture operations in the Tax, Revenue and Health Care markets and we are very pleased to have the opportunity to demonstrate its effectiveness in the processing of these complex, non-structured forms”.

The solution that will be provided by the project team will include high speed mail opening equipment, document scanning, automated data capture, remittance processing and a sophisticated imaging and workflow system to support exception processing. The system design addresses the requirement to process up to 75,000 transactions per day that may include up to 225,000 images per day, making this system the largest Child Support System that will be installed within the US to meet Federal and State requirements.

Impression has customized iCapture to deal with the un-structured types of documents that are received and a White Paper entitled “Optimizing Recognition for Free Form Tables” is available on the Impression website that describes some of the enhancements embedded into iCapture for this project. The iCapture system will be fully integrated with both a remittance and imaging system that will be supplied by Unisys. The system will be installed in Sacramento, California in the summer of 2005 and full production operations will commence in late 2005 following an extensive period of Acceptance Testing by State project personnel.

Impression Technology will deliver its portion of the Child Support System under a fixed priced subcontract to Unisys. For further information, please contact Bruce Lechner, Vice President, at 925.280.0010, ext. 20.
