WINNIPEG, MB, July 12 /CNW/ - Infocorp Computer Solutions Ltd. (TSX: INP.TO) (Infocorp), a leading provider of revenue management and electronic service delivery solutions for e-Government and e-Retail, today announced that it was selected by Service New Brunswick (SNB) to install its
Access2Gov(TM) solution on over 200 cashier stations at more than 30 Service Centers, Outlets and Registry Mapping offices across the province of New Brunswick.
"We are pleased to have been selected by Service New Brunswick", said Dwayne Mathers, CEO of Infocorp. "SNB is a leader in making government services more accessible, and offering high quality service to its citizens. We see this as a strong endorsement of our enterprise-wide approach to automating the over-the-counter transaction process and improving province-wide revenue management.
SNB's goal is to implement a best-of-breed online system that is designed to enable significant process improvements in the province's over-the-counter transactions. Infocorp's Access2Gov solution is a proven POS cashiering, reconciliation and revenue management product that will be fully integrated with the province's departmental systems and general ledger systems. Ultimately, transaction management from other channels, including the Internet, will be consolidated onto the Access2Gov revenue management platform.
Bob Gamble, President of Service New Brunswick states that "Citizens want the convenience that comes with having a choice of three channels for service delivery. SNB was looking for a POS system that ensures that these channels will be well integrated. Access2Gov allows us to do just that."
