Additionally, future monitoring of BRI's automated teller machine (ATM) network will be accomplished using Diebold's innovative Event Management System software. "BRI was looking for high quality financial self-service system that furnishes greater convenience to all of its customers, improves productivity and helps manage risk," said Mr. Effendy Sadikin, president director of MIK. "Together, Diebold and MIK offered BRI a total solution -- from hardware installation to software, service and ATM monitoring." The 1064ix cash dispenser offers a high degree of functionality and reliability in a compact footprint. It supports maximum media capacity and large-screen color graphics, which can enhance customer service. The ability to dispense items of value such as coupons, tickets and stamps offers the financial institution an opportunity to generate additional revenue through the terminal. "The awarding of this contract is a testament to the importance of having a strong in-country presence to market the advanced products and software we offer," said James L. M. Chen, vice president and managing director of Asia- Pacific for Diebold. "Diebold has forged a strong organization in Asia- Pacific that provides the broadest array of self-service offerings in the financial industry." Chen continued: "Diebold has the largest ATM market share in Indonesia, with an installed base of more than 2,500 terminals. With the progressive recovery of the country's economy and the enormous market potential this ASEAN (Association of South East Asian Nations) country has to offer, Diebold is poised to keep a leadership position and expand its long term investment in Indonesia."
