According to all the experts, the time is now.
identiMetrics is making the whole process as easy as ABC. A, as the LEADER in school cafeteria biometrics, identiMetrics has the largest installation base of any company in the marketplace. Plus, they work with ALL cafeteria applications, no exceptions. They’ve made life a lot simpler for Beverly E. Blough MS, RD, LD, Director of Food Services for her schools in Wood County, West Virginia, where identiFi™, identiMetrics software platform, has been successfully installed and working for two years. Beverly is thrilled that her “food service staff and students mastered the program quickly and easily. We’re proud to be a leader in using biometric identification in our schools to make things work better, faster, safer and more reliably,” she commented.
B, as the EXPERT in biometric identification for young children, they’ve successfully solved the problem of identifying the little fingers of three and four year olds. Their new identiFi™ version 1.4 release is scheduled for this week. Its successful pilot was tested at Visitation BVM School in Philadelphia, PA., and has become a technology model for the Archdiocesan Nutritional Development Food Service Programs. Most recently, approximately 500 Kindergarten and first grade students were successfully enrolled at the Early Childhood Center in Hammonton, New Jersey. identiFi™, identiMetrics’ comprehensive biometric fingerscan identification platform utilizes the award winning BIO-Key International’s VST technology. “This solution is practical and cost-effective. identiMetrics is right on target…they know schools and they have the hands-on experience to do it right,” commented Rose Siegle, Food Service Director at Visitation BVM School.
