December 1, 2004

PADERBORN, Germany - "Vision at Work" is the motto of Wincor Nixdorf's Wincor World 2005, which will be held in Paderborn, Germany, Jan. 25-27 at Welle Messezentrum, according to a news release.

Together with 60 partners across an exhibition space of 7,500 square meters, Wincor Nixdorf will be presenting future-oriented products and solutions, as well as consulting and other services for retail companies and financial institutions, the release noted.

In addition to the exhibition, visitors can attend a series of workshops and presentations providing expert know-how for day-to-day business, as well as a symposium dealing with the future of banking and retailing.

On Jan. 27, an innovation day on the future of branch sales, in conjunction with the Börsenzeitung newspaper and the Fraunhofer Institute, will be integrated in the presentations.

With the ProClassic/Enterprise multichannel software, Wincor Nixdorf will demonstrate how self-service, branch and call-center channels can converge efficiently on one platform. This software connects an FI's host system to various types of customer terminals.

Focusing on cash processes at branches, Wincor Nixdorf will show how standard transactions can be shifted to the self-service zone in a customer-oriented manner. Together with partners, Wincor Nixdorf will present various branch concepts to support front-office, back-office and self-service processes.

In addition, the company will show its deposit automation process. Wincor Nixdorf's portfolio of cash-recycling and deposit systems covers various solutions to optimize cash management, ranging from the processing of single documents, bundles of banknotes and documents, coin deposits and dispensing to cash recycling.

A compact cash-recycling system -the ProCash 4000 - also will be presented.

Wincor Nixdorf will present its Store Vision program, which offers process solutions for international retailers. This long-term program has been extended by components relating to upstream retail processes in the supply-and-demand chain.

Wincor Nixdorf will be showing solutions, particularly in the fields of integration and innovative checkout systems, mobile solutions, reverse vending machines and RFID.

The company has developed the Store Communication Framework for retail companies facing the integration of applications into a uniform IT infrastructure. The new software architecture reduces complexity and ensures that all applications access uniform data.

In addition to POS technology for traditional checkouts, Wincor Nixdorf will be demonstrating different versions of its modular self-checkout systems. New mobile devices support staff when receiving and price marking merchandise and handling physical inventory. Technologies such as mobile POS solutions, the Personal Shopping Assistant and mobile self-scanning facilities complete the range of products that are available under the umbrella of ProMobile Store.

In the area of price and promotion management, Wincor Nixdorf will be presenting kiosk systems (which have now become established elements of the IT landscape at stores), electronic-shelf-labeling and intelligent-promotion displays that target customers.

Reverse vending machines are a proven way of automating key branch processes. And they have evolved into an important part of the portfolio. Wincor Nixdorf will be showing solutions that automate the return of cash at the POS and will present cash-management concepts and services for the safe and reliable handling of cash logistics at stores.

Wincor Nixdorf has a range of tailored IT services and will be showcasing scalable offerings extending from maintenance to outsourcing.

The company will focus on outsourcing in the banking and retail environments, international service management, customer care and service quality, IT enterprise management for FIs and retail companies, proactive security management, optimal provisioning of systems on-site, and global-logistics management.

The keynote will again be Wincor Nixdorf's modular outsourcing concept. For financial service providers, services ranging from outsourcing of self-service process chains to IT outsourcing for branches will be displayed. For retail companies, IT outsourcing for stores and a focus on SAP outsourcing, application management and help-desk services will be highlighted.

Under the keyword e-services, Wincor Nixdorf also will show the benefits of CRM-based services to coordinate service-order activities on the basis of the automated electronic interchange of all information relevant to service.
