Mentalix's Fed Submit™ (Civil) 1.8 Fingerprint Systems Supply
Electronic Background Checks At Lower Prices
PLANO, Texas -- Mentalix, Inc. announces the availability of version
1.8 of its Fed
Submit (Civil) product line. Fed Submit systems enable inkless
live scanning and fingerprint card scanning, allowing banks, schools,
airports, finance companies, port authorities, border patrols, military
installations, security agencies and human resources personnel to
submit electronic background checks. Criminal record checks and
identity verification requests can be submitted instantly from a
Fed Submit system. Fed Submit (Civil) pricing is now significantly
lower, though several new features have been added to version 1.8.
New features include: tiered user permission settings which dramatically
improve system security, swipe card reader support that eliminates
basic demographic data entry, full-text search capability for all
stored records (capacity for up to 50,000 records), and integration
with demographics systems. Fed Submit (Civil) 1.8 also offers scalability,
with options for an affordable base solution that can also be expanded
to include centralized processing for multiple locations and restricted-access
administrative workstations.
Fed Submit allows users to send electronic fingerprint records
securely and quickly to an agency such as the Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI) or the American Bankers Association (ABA), and
the system receives and tracks the results of the agency's database
search. Many administrative functions are available for streamlining
data entry, database searches, reports, and record tracking for
multiple users or locations. Depending on the agency's regulations,
background check results are returned to the submitting company
electronically (usually within minutes of submission) or via hard
copies; all responses can be tracked through the Fed Submit (Civil)
system.
Fed Submit complies with the FBI's IAFIS (Integrated Automated
Fingerprint Identification System) scanning, transmission and compression
standards for both ten-print card scanning and live scans. The software
meets ANSI/NIST fingerprint submission requirements, upon which
virtually all state, federal and civilian agencies' identification
systems are based; data fields can be customized for specific agencies,
such as the American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE). Fed
Submit can be expanded or scaled down to accommodate the needs of
small departments or large companies. Options include FBI-certified
card printing, submissions from multiple workstations or locations,
and limited-access workstations for conducting administrative tasks.
The Fed Submit (Civil) product is tailored specifically for submitting
background checks; other products in the Fed Submit line also offer
arrest record submission for law enforcement agencies.
