ARX's (Algorithmic Research) CoSign� digital signature solution allows Cal-PASS to digitally sign documentation, saving on costs and allowing for a simplified workflow process.

San Francisco, California December 9, 2008

ARX, a leading global provider ofdigital signatures(standard electronic signatures), announced the deployment of a CoSign digital-signature solution at Cal-PASS, an education-based organization that analyzes scholastic data in order to improve student success.

Previous to their implementation of theCoSign digital signature solution, Cal-PASS had to physically route internal documentation that called for employee signatures. With employees based in multiple locations, the need to physically route documentation increased project times and necessitated costly shipping fees. Cal-PASS decided that a digital signature solution would help them eliminate the bottlenecks in their workflow by allowing them to keep documentation electronic through their signature authorization process. A digital signature would also reduce overall business costs by eliminating the need to ship documentation.

Once CoSign was deployed at Cal-PASS, the organization was able to utilize the solution to digitally sign their electronic documentation, relying on the CoSign portable signature format (CoSign PSF™). The CoSign PSF provides proof of the signer's identity, intent, and document integrity within multiple document types for decades into the future. By utilizing CoSign, Cal-PASS could electronically distribute documentation for signing and receive authorizations in minutes, a significant increase from the multiple day turnaround of their original process. In addition to the advance in their documentation turnaround, Cal-PASS' implementation of CoSign allowed them to save thousands of dollars a year on shipping costs.

"By choosing CoSign, Cal-PASS was able to incorporate a digital signature solution that met their standards for ease of use and management, as well as a solution that allows them to securely send documentation outside of their organization," said Mike Milton, VP of Sales, America, ARX.
