PECTRA Technology has been honored at the WITSA Global ICT Excellence Awards Ceremony (May, 2010) for the implementation of PECTRA BPM Suite in Monedero (Argentina).
PECTRA BPM Suite was honored in Amsterdam at the 17th World Congress on Information Technology organized by the World Information Technology Society Alliance (WITSA), the most significant global event on information technologies, in the “Private Sector” category for conceiving and developing Monedero, a leader solution in the micro payments’ segment.
This congress is held once every two years and it honors the most outstanding ICT solutions in three different categories:
- Private Sector Excellence, category in which Monedero was honored.
- Public Sector Excellence, where the award was for President Obama’s “Open Government” initiative, executed by TechAmerica.
- Digital Opportunity, a category that had two initiatives acknowledged (England and Hong Kong).
The solution Monedero was proposed through CESSI -Cámara de Empresarios de Software y Servicios Informáticos- as WITSA is the ruling organization for all chambers of commerce at a global level (grouping 74 chambers from 74 different countries), each of which takes part -through its representatives- in the awards by means of successive voting rounds until the winners are selected.
Monedero is a leading means of payment in the micro payment segment in Argentina which allows the user to pay -using the modality of electronic payment- everyday expenses in the public and private transport network, retail chains, and shops partnered with the network. The solution was rewarded on account of its impact on society, considering the number of users that utilize it on a daily basis.
