DALLAS, Aug. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Affiliated Computer Services,
Inc. (NYSE: ACS) today announced an initiative with Protech Solutions, Inc.
to offer CSEnext, a new state child support enforcement (CSE) solution
designed to increase case collections, staff productivity and system
savings.
"Combining ACS' proven expertise and Protech's unequaled track record
of designing child support systems, the power of CSEnext will benefit our
clients and the people they serve," said Joe Doherty, executive vice
president and group president of ACS' Government Solutions Group. "This is
another example of how ACS understands how to find forward-thinking
solutions for all levels of governments and the issues they face every
day."
The next-generation enterprise framework allows states to modernize
their legacy system through flexible Web-based modules, which is less
expensive and easier than a full-system replacement. CSEnext also maintains
the state's federal system certification.
Developed by Protech, CSEnext is the nation's most innovative child
support case management application. "Through CSEnext modules and a
low-risk development framework, ACS and Protech will deliver a risk-managed
child support modular solution that will improve services dramatically
through innovative case management solutions," said Nagaraj Garimalla, CEO
of Protech Solutions, Inc. "These are mature, tested modules that can be
implemented incrementally and can co-exist with current child support
systems."
ACS is the largest provider of managed services for state and local
governments -- including county governments -- including more than 1,700
state and local government entities. ACS is the largest provider of BPO
services in the government sector, including more than $7.5 billion in
beneficiary payments through its electronic payment card or stored value
card services as well as supporting more than 23 million Medicaid
recipients, processing nearly 550 million Medicaid healthcare claims
annually.
ACS processes nearly half of the nation's child support payments, more
than $13 billion per year.
