Contactless smart card systems manufacturer LEGIC has inked a license partnership agreement with BCS Solutions Service Centre in Germany that will extend usage of LEGIC’s all-in-one card while expanding BCS’ offerings to its clients.
Zurich/Munich –LEGIC Identsystems Ltd, the leading manufacturer of contactless smart card systems for personal identification applications and BCS Solutions GmbH, the Service Centre for business solutions with over 15 years of experience in hardware and software, security technology and services, have just concluded a highly promising license partnership agreement. LEGIC’s all-in-one-card technology extends BCS’s integrated approach and supplements its existing offering with new contactless identification options.
BCS advises and supports companies in the commercial, industrial, trade and service sectors. BCS develops and implements, in very close collaboration with its customers, both Enterprise Resource Planning solutions and Client Relationship Management systems based on the very latest technology and software. In the security technology field, BCS solutions stands alongside its customers as a highly capable integration partner for building and access control and time & attendance systems. Its many years of project experience in an extremely wide variety of industries stand the company in good stead. BCS’s flexible, customised strategies offer its customers tailor-made solutions, a broad range of services and investment security. BCS also relies on dependable partners. BCS is now backed by one of the world’s leading suppliers of contactless personal identification technology – LEGIC.
BCS sees itself as its customers’ long-term consultant and partner. As a modern service provider that delivers numerous IT and other services, the firm not only responds quickly and efficiently to customers’ requirements, it also integrates the very latest technologies promptly. BCS attaches great importance to professionalism, quality and the expandability of well integrated systems.
With up to 127 applications, LEGIC contactless smart card technology, already deployed worldwide millions of times, offers almost unlimited possibilities for integration into systems already implemented by BCS. Contactless personal identification and correspondingly high security of access to systems and data is now set to become a permanent feature of BCS’s product offering.
BCS Solutions CEO Ralf Wörsdörfer is pleased with this new partnership: “Nowadays, no company can afford to put up with disruption or occasional failures. Networked computer systems and integrated software must therefore be available round the clock. At the same time, security requirements are becoming more and more exacting, not only with regard to 24-hour operation, but also in terms of data and information security. This is why our service provision approach looks beyond supported business processes – our system solutions also take into account optimum operational and data security. The licence partnership with LEGIC complements our existing network and offers us precisely those problemssolving capabilities that ultimately pay off for our customers.”
“LEGIC is also banking on well-run fruitful cooperation. Together with our licence partners, we try to exploit synergies, inspire each other and open up ways for our customers to tap into new markets with outstanding solutions. BCS is adopting a similar strategy and we are pleased to have found such a cooperative and experienced partner. We are looking forward to many years of successful collaboration” adds Stephen Neff, Vice President Sales & Business Development of LEGIC Identsystems Ltd.
