CMS Info Systems has won a contract from State Bank of India (SBI) to deploy more than 7,850 Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) across the country. This is the single largest deployment contract awarded by any bank in the country, valued at over Rs. 4.5 billion, and will include Total Implementation Services, ATM installation, maintenance and support for a 7 year period.
CMS Info Systems will be installing ATM’s manufactured by Nautilus Hyosung of Korea. Hyosung is a leading provider of banking automation and self service solutions worldwide.
Commenting on the development, Mr Rajiv Kaul, Executive VC and CEO of CMS Info Systems said, “We are honoured to be to be awarded this project by SBI. In executing what is possibly the single largest ATM deployment in the world, we shall leverage our deeply entrenched cash management network over 2500+ towns and experience in project management, to significantly improve access, uptime, and quality of service for the bank’s customers.”
These ATM’s will be deployed across all regions in India with a significant focus on semi urban and rural areas. This is expected to provide the necessary infrastructure for multiple financial inclusion initiatives, including the Direct Beneficiary Transfer Scheme.
