NEBS Selects OIT's EDM System to Flow e-Forms On-Line

STATE COLLEGE, PA: Optical Image Technology, Inc. (OIT) announced that New England Business Service, Inc. (NEBS), an innovative provider of top quality business and computer forms, checks and promotional products, has selected OIT's Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) to address the high demands of its complex business processes, allowing the company to aggressively compete in today's sophisticated economy.

NEBS, a major direct marketer to small businesses since 1952 maintains an emerging customer base in the United States, Canada, England, and France. Over its 48-year history, NEBS has strived to remain a reflection of the small business, all the while changing with the needs of its customers. NEBS has made customer service a top priority by contributing new products, services, and new channels to the marketplace.

NEBS processes mass amounts of data and paperwork in order to provide its customers with top-notch services. To enhance customer service and keep it exceptional, NEBS made the decision to license OIT's OptiIMAGE , OptiFLOW , ObjectSERVE , and IntraVIEWER. With the help of these products, NEBS will simplify the process of filling out forms and distributing the paperwork necessary to introduce and modify products for Customers. Depending on the information provided by the NEBS user, OIT's software will create an electronic form that is passed on from person to person, within the company, until work is completed. This means no more paper is lost and no photocopying of forms and associated paperwork. The software will help information flow faster, keep it more organized, and notably reduce costs.

"We are very excited that NEBS will be using OIT's Total Solution in such a remarkable way with the electronic form and work flow," states OIT President, Scott Buchart. "It will now be much simpler for NEBS to keep track of work order forms, transfer those forms between the appropriate departments and ultimately, advance customer service."

The award-winning Total Solution for Document/Content Management includes: OptiFICHE (COLD-ERM/EBPP), OptiIMAGE (Document Imaging), OptiFLOW (Workflow/Process Management), IntraVIEWER (Internet Access/E-Business Enabler), ObjectSERVE (HSM), ObjectPRINT (Print/Fax Server), and InfoVIEW (Enhanced Index Extraction). OIT has gained prominent industry recognition by organizations such as AIIM, Doculabs and Kinetic Information. OIT's Total Solution enables people to be more productive and makes information more manageable.
