California-based InSure Vision Technologies (IVT) has announced the availability of SurePath 3.0, its flagship product for processing and managing both paper-based and electronic surety bonds.
Pam Stocks, InSure Vision Technologies president commented that SurePath 3.0 contains many enhancements to further streamline the processing and management of surety bonds.
SurePath is the only independent product on the market that provides customers with a comprehensive library of more than 1,600 pre-scanned surety bonds. IVT adds additional bond forms to the bond form library upon request, allowing Surety Bond Agents to focus on working with clients instead of scanning and creating forms. SureForm, IVT’s forms management engine, has also been upgraded to provide users with more flexibility in personalizing bond forms. Users can now add personal notations to forms and insert digital seals. SureForm also supports digital signatures and digital certificates, enabling agents and their clients to electronically sign bond forms using an electronic pen. If anyone tampers with the digitally signed document, the signatures are automatically invalidated. IVT is partnering with Topaz Systems, Inc.© to make the electronic pen tablets available to agents at a competitive price. Agents can also attach digital certificates to a bond form that can be independently verified by companies such as Verisign ©.
Since SurePath is an Internet-based product, agents can give their clients and client obligees seamless access to their bond information.
For example, clients can request bonds on line that the agent can process without re-keying the information. SurePath 3.0 can now help agents and clients manage bid bonds as well as track bid results, meaning that agents can now track and manage customer bonds from the inception of a project to its completion.
