Latest Microsoft® technologies and architecture
Products designed from ground-up using the latest Microsoft® technologies.

Full single and batch search capabilities
Single search is ideal for quick processing such as pre-employment where as batch search is desirable when there is an extensive list of individuals or vendors that needs to be screened periodically.

Dynamic Search Clearing™ (DSC)
Prevents the same sanction records that were found for a criteria record and subsequently cleared in a previous batch from appearing again in future batches.  Batch utilizing DSC™ returns fewer matches thus reducing the time taken to review the results.

Date-of-Birth (DOB) Matching™
Allows sanction records to be further matched based on the individuals' date of birth, in addition to matching on the name.  If both the criteria and sanction records contain dates of birth, EPSS™ will attempt to match on these two dates and return only the records that match.

User-selectable sanction databases
Users may choose any (or all) of the available sanction databases to be included in the single and batch searches.

GSA Exclusion Codes Matching
Users may choose to search the sanction database based on GSA Exclusion Codes.  Once the similar names are found (based on name criteria), they will be further matched against the list of user-selected GSA exclusion codes.

Acronyms search capability
Allows search for vendors by their acronyms.

Complete audit trails for record-keeping and archival purposes
All searches performed are documented and kept in customer's file for record keeping and archival purposes.  In addition, reports for current and past batches can be retrieved at anytime.  For the EPSS™ client/server version, all reports and search record are kept within the EPSS™ database at the user's site.  For the EPSS™ Online Search Engine, all reports and search records are kept on our secured servers and are available to any authorized parties to view, download, and printed.

Exportable reports
Search reports can be easily exported to Microsoft® Word, Microsoft® Excel, or Adobe® Acrobat PDF format (EPSS™ stand-alone version requires Adobe Distiller® to export to Acrobat PDF format).
