Optimum Solutions
Corporation was established in the early '90s when we
introduced and marketed the patented automated scanning and data
capture system called FAQSS (Fast and Accurate Questionnaire
Scanning System). An extraordinary technological breakthrough,
FAQSS automatically performs data capture functions, which until
then, could only be handled manually.
FAQSS, the invention of Jeff Schneider, a Long Island based
computer scientist, can capture and interpret data automatically
from all forms - even damaged or torn surveys. It is capable of
distinguishing cross-outs, erasures and stray marks from "real
marks." Embedded OCR/ICR technology can read most handwritten
numbers and alphanumeric fields automatically. FAQSS' patented
"Mark Sense" technology offers better than 99% accuracy in the
capture of data from any form, even tightly spaced, poorly
marked and heavily abused documents.
Widely regarded as the fastest most accurate full-featured
automated data capture system, OSC's "FAQSS" software is
heralded by Fortune 100 and other Blue Chip companies as the
"leader in the industry."
In March 1997, the United States Bureau of the Census (BOC)
chose a private industry solution to process the Decennial
Census. This is the first time in US history that a Census
will not be processed by Bureau in-house technology. The
centerpiece of the solution was OSC's Mark Sense technology. The
BOC reported that OSC's image mark recognition engine was a
significant factor in the selection of Lockheed Martin/EDS as
its provider. Officials complimented OSC on creating a fast
and accurate system for capturing data and on OSC's engineering
expertise to respond to changes. The Bureau recognized they
could rely on OSC to provide the accuracy and speed needed to
meet its high standards and short time line requirements.
From its inception, market research firms and data entry
companies quickly recognized Optimum Solutions Corporation's
position as a major force in the data processing field. Consumer
companies, publishing houses, direct marketing firms and
fulfillment companies throughout the nation and around the world
have joined OSC's prestigious list of clients' overall systems.
OSC licenses its turn key system to some of the largest research
companies in the United States. Many of the most prominent
market research firms and consumer companies in the nation are
turning to OSC for customized data capture solutions. OSC also
helps major consumer companies capture and process data more
efficiently and accurately than ever before. A
state-of-the-art, in-house service bureau offers companies the
ability to process their data through the FAQSS system without
licensing the technology.
