technologies, announced that it signed an agreement to become the
primary technology provider for PRESENTE, the fund serving employees of
Éxito Group. NCR Colombia will work with the Fund to deliver its first
network of ATMs for its members.
Using NCR's technology, PRESENTE has already installed 14 ATMs, which
are located at administrative offices, distribution centers, food
industry, and the textile subsidiary Didetexco, in cities such as
Barranquilla, Bogota, Cali and Envigado. PRESENTE becomes the first Fund

personalized ATM experiences, advertising campaigns and service offers
to the members, allowing a constant and immediate communication with
them.
Likewise, NCR will provide maintenance and support services with
coverage at national level, with remote monitoring and support of the
ATM network.
“The Fund for Employees of Exito Group incorporates new technologies
that make life easier for our members and their families, delivering
cash to them in a nimble and efficient way, even in remote sites. The
technology solution provided by NCR in the ATMs is also an advertising
vehicle and point of contact with our members, and we will keep them
informed about offers and services of the Fund. We chose to develop this
solution with NCR because it was the technology provider that generated
us the greatest confidence and credibility,” said Ramiro Alvarez,
Technology Director of PRESENTE.
The technology solution that NCR offers to PRESENTE comprises 14
SelfServ ATMs at the initial phase, as well as support and maintenance
services.
“With our technology solution, PRESENTE dramatically improves their
