Kofax® Limited (NASDAQ: KFX) (LSE: KFX), a leading provider of smart process applications for the business critical First Mile™ of customer interactions, today announced that a national government statistics bureau in Asia Pacific has expanded its investment in Kofax by leveraging Kofax Kapow™ and Kofax Altosoft Insight™ to monitor more than 20 news sources, including local newspapers, blogs and social media and other sites for comments relating to the organization. By using Kofax solutions to automate the collection of this information, the bureau gains faster insight and can be more responsive to breaking news and citizen sentiment.

The customer previously implemented Kofax flagship solutions to automate the capture and extraction of census data for over 230 million citizens. It chose Kofax Kapow and Kofax Altosoft Insight for this social media and citizen sentiment initiative because of their proven information collection, analytics and visualization capabilities and ability to deploy in less than three months.

“Many of our customers that have experienced tremendous benefits by deploying Kofax’s flagship products are now deriving even more business value by expanding their implementations to include the newer solutions in our software portfolio,” commented Howard Dratler, Executive Vice President of Field Operations at Kofax. “This government agency automated the capture of census data to save significant time and money, and has now added data integration and analytics add-ons to better engage with constituents.”

The Kofax Kapow integration and automation platform is the fastest way to acquire, enhance, and deliver information to enterprise applications. Information that was previously unattainable, unusable, or costly to integrate becomes readily consumable to drive productivity and add insight into the decision-making process.

Kofax Altosoft Insight features rapid, no-coding development, near real-time reporting, dashboard, visualization and ETL (extract, transform, load) capabilities for both data and process analytics.

The sale was comprised of more than $450,000 in software license revenue and closed during the fourth quarter of Kofax’s fiscal year 2014.
