Under terms of the agreement, NCR will upgrade existing automated teller machines (ATMs) and provide new ATMs for all new SunTrust branches. NCR will manage all maintenance and professional services through 2009 for all existing NCR ATMs and all future installations. Additionally, SunTrust, the seventh largest US bank, will utilize NCR’s APTRA Edge software and related support services for its ATM channel of more than 2,700 ATMs.
Gene Kirby, executive vice president and head of the retail line of business for SunTrust, said, SunTrust will not only benefit from NCR’s current technology, but in the upcoming years we will serve as a testing partner for new developments within the channel.
NCR’s leading position in the ATM industry, not only as a solutions provider but also as a thought leader in developing tomorrow’s technology, helps reinforce SunTrust’s position as a bank that provides the best personal solutions for our customers. We are very happy to enter into this strategic relationship with NCR.
