Allied Images gets contract for Twenty SmartLF Cx40 scanners

Northampton, UK.
10th July 2008

Allied Images, the supplier of large format scanning and printing solutions, has announced the signing of a contract with an information management reseller for the supply of twenty Colortrac SmartLF Cx 40 scanners. The scanners will form part of an implementation of an Electronic Document and Records Management and Web Publication solution, as part of a national planning reform programme.

The scanners, along with the software, will enable authorities to capture and publish planning applications and associated documents online to provide improved public engagement and efficiency in the planning process. These authorities join 120 other UK national and local government authorities already using Colortrac scanners for large format document capture.

As a result of the programme, members of the public will be able to submit and monitor applications online, and local authorities will be able to publish them and invite public representation during the application process. The proven technology underpinning this contract has already helped to transform business processes in local government and delivered cost savings and efficiency benefits.

Steve Morin, MD of Allied Images, said, "this order marks a major milestone in Allied's continuing development as the premier provider of large format scanning solutions, we are pleased to be collaborating with our partner in the successful introduction of Colortrac SmartLF range of large format document scanners".

The scanners will be delivered in a phased programme during July and August.
