ImTran will be an operating unit of Scantron, alongside the company’s scanning, surveys and services business units.
The addition of document imaging will enable Scantron to build on its channels of distribution in the education and financial institution markets, said Timothy C. Tuff, chairman and chief executive officer of Harland. Scantron’s nationwide sales and service capabilities will also help ImTran to pursue growth opportunities.
Image-based data collection is the fastest-growing market segment for paper-based systems, said Tom Hoag, president of Scantron. Adding document imaging capabilities rounds out our suite of products and services, enables us to pursue new customers and provides our existing customers with data collection alternatives to simplify their operations, reduce labor and improve access to information.
