Electronic Knowledge Interchange receives Datacap 2007 Partner Excellence Award
Award Recognizes EKI’s High-Impact Customer Value

Chicago, IL, September 11, 2007 – Electronic Knowledge Interchange (EKI) announced today that it has been recognized by Datacap Inc., the leading document capture and forms processing software developer, as a recipient of their annual Partner Excellence Award.  EKI received the award at the 2007 Datacap Capture Conference held September 10th and 11th in Tarrytown, NY.

“EKI is proud to have been recognized by Datacap for the exceptional value we deliver to clients as their channel partner,” stated Diego Ferrer, Co-CEO of EKI.  “EKI builds strong business relationships with outstanding organizations and we are looking forward to continued success as a Datacap partner.”

Datacap selected five channel partners that epitomize the value that channel partners bring to customers.  Each helped push the capabilities of Taskmaster into new areas by designing new applications or integrating Taskmaster into new powerful solutions.  “On behalf of Datacap, we recognize EKI for your expertise, perseverance and willingness to go above and beyond when necessary,” said Scott Blau, CEO of Datacap.

EKI prides itself on devising robust document management solutions for corporate and government organizations.  In 2007, EKI completed its innovative application for the Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) as part of the Cities Readiness Initiative (CRI).  CRI is a federally-funded program to aid cities in increasing their capacity to deliver medicines and medical supplies during a large-scale public health emergency.  EKI’s solution leverages Taskmaster to capture and store data on citywide dispensing of medications to the entire population of Chicago, were it to become necessary.  
In addition, EKI implemented a large Accounts Payable capture solution for one of the world’s largest tire and rubber companies, integrating Taskmaster for Invoices with IBM/FileNet and SAP.

“Datacap Taskmaster is a powerful, flexible, scalable document capture and forms processing software solution, allowing businesses and corporations to quickly capture information from paper documents and turn it into useful, manageable information”, said Steve Shimkus, Solution Advisor/Project Manager at EKI.  “Because Taskmaster works with most document scanners and integrates with all leading Enterprise Content Management Systems, there is an increasing number of opportunities to utilize this powerful technology in our innovative solutions for our clients, and expect that trend to continue.”
