Kofax and Intervate to Present Best Practices at South African Document Capture and Business Process Automation Conference

Kofax plc (LSE: KFX), the leading provider of document driven business process automation solutions, today announced it will co-host the Document Capture and Process Executive Forum on April 7, 2011 in Johannesburg, South Africa with Intervate, a leading enterprise information management (EIM) solution provider and member of the Kofax Global Partner Program.

The event will feature a keynote presentation by Hanns Kohler-Kruner, the former Director of Global Education Services in EMEA for the Association for Information and Image Management (AIIM) and a recognized expert in the enterprise content management (ECM) space. The presentation will highlight key findings from a recent AIIM study that illustrate how electronic content is developing from basic “systems of record” to empowering higher value “systems of engagement,” and how document capture, the critical first step in the content management lifecycle, serves as a crucial foundation for such capabilities. In addition, the conference will feature practical customer case studies on successful implementations of capture enabled business process automation and invoice processing solutions.

“By capture enabling their business processes, organizations can enhance data quality, accelerate processing times, reduce costs and risks, and improve customer service and compliance,” said Gia Thom, Imaging and Capture Solution Manager at Intervate. “For customers looking to make a strategic investment, Kofax solutions provide a secure, scalable platform for business process automation that delivers a rapid, tangible ROI.”
