The IWS corporate group already looks back on over a 100-year company history. Starting as the Aschaffenburg Watch and Lock Company at the beginning of the 20th century, the organization steadily expanded its range of services. Today, these also include cash and valuables services offered by IWS Industrie-Werkschutz GmbH. For continued success, those responsible rely on a proven formula: a mix of traditional values and modern everyday aids.
Focus on Change
A partner for whom security is a top priority. This is something IWS Industrie-Werkschutz GmbH can assert with emphasis. Long-standing experience in working with savings banks, cooperative, and private banks has certainly contributed significantly to this. But not only that: The organization does not rest on successes and proven practices. Stagnation is to be avoided as best as possible. Given the rapid developments in recent times, a sensible endeavor—especially for cash-in-transit companies (CIT).
In recent years, not only have the desires and needs of customers and employees changed. The demands on the service itself are becoming more complex and overall societal trends, such as the call for more sustainability—both private and professional—want to be constantly considered. That these themes can be dealt with more easily with digital support has been known to IWS Industrie-Werkschutz GmbH for some time.
Cash Handling – Systematically Automated
More efficient processes, resulting cost savings, and transparent processes: goals that cash-in-transit companies often still dream of today. They hold on too much to well-known manual procedures and continuously rely on paper documentation—whether regarding receipts at customers or monthly invoicing. IWS put this scenario to rest a few years ago and implemented ALVARA | Digital Solutions' Cash Center Software.
Last year, the next step was due: IWS Industrie-Werkschutz GmbH introduced the new Pecunia Cash Center Software from ALVARA. This opened up further automation potentials. Today, the traditional company digitally and automatically maps all CIT processes, achieving even more security and transparency for daily work. However, this is just the beginning of the list of advantages:
- – IWS Industrie-Werkschutz GmbH benefits above all from numerous functions around efficient route planning, secure container logistics, and transparent mobile ticketing.
- – Pecunia is intuitive. This ensures quick use by employees.
- – The Cash Center Software can be modularly expanded. The focus is always on the topics of digitization and automation.
Long-standing benefits remain unchanged, such as the precise control of access rights or participation in the CashEDI process via Pecunia.
More Than a Solution
IWS Industrie-Werkschutz GmbH has taken advantage of the modular structure and enhanced the Pecunia solution with individual add-ons. Fakturio as a solution for automated invoicing brings manual relief and reduced error-proneness. With this, the cash-in-transit company maintains an overview of its services provided and guarantees quick billing.
In addition, intervention services are an important component for the organization. Especially when a report of a defective ATM comes in, all those responsible want to be able to react quickly. That's why the company also uses the Pecunia Intervention Management. The Logistics App MobiTick from ALVARA is specialized in the swift handling of service and intervention orders. With it, the head office can assign new tasks in the form of tickets to drivers on their tour. At the same time, they receive a tool with which they can record causes and implemented measures on-site. Since all functions are interconnected, automated billing can also be started with Fakturio in this process.
Conclusion
Cash handling often has a dusty touch. But IWS Industrie-Werkschutz GmbH shows that it can be different. “With the transition to Pecunia and thus our next step towards automation, we gain further efficiency, transparency, and ultimately security. All three points help us offer a high-quality service—peppered with traditional values and modern spirit,” says Alexander Gresser, Managing Director of IWS Industrie-Werkschutz GmbH.
