First Ondemand: NetDespatch and First Ondemand announce innovative secure delivery solution
Fareham, United Kingdom, Mar 25, 2009 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) --
NetDespatch Ltd and First Ondemand are pleased to announce the development of their two factor NetDespatch SecureScan, a web-based, value added service that positively identifies the authorised recipient of goods, and secures an authenticated proof of delivery.
By combining NetDespatch's extensive web booking platform and experience with First Ondemand's unique, secure and intelligent identity middleware application 'Authentisec', end users throughout the value chain will benefit from an improved more reliable service. In addition express parcel carriers, courier companies and logistics networks will see a significant reduction in the costs associated with the mis-delivery of high value goods, and disputed delivery claims.
"NetDespatch SecureScan is a good fit for our existing business processes and in particular has many advantages for retailers offering home delivery." Said Becky Clark, NetDespatch's CEO. "By matching each item for delivery with the correct recipient through NetDespatch SecureScan's unique identity, two factor authentication system, we will be offering customers a more efficient service through the provision of a strong layer of security, which will help to protect them from the costly and administrative burden of mis-delivery and door step theft." First Ondemand's CEO Douglas Shand said, "The rapid increase in internet shopping and volume of goods distributed to businesses and homes is leading to a greater risk of fraud and loss than ever before. In order to reduce the costs, inconvenience and disappointment associated with this insidious type of crime, goods need the correct validation and authentication of both the consignee and consignor. The ability to incorporate an identity and authentication layer into these processes brings a greater level of client and customer assurance. NetDespatch SecureScan has mass market appeal which will change the way the way companies and people exchange goods and create a market-leading solution."
