Europe's Best Government Project

Kiosk solution makes a ROI in three months

Kiosk Innova was presented with the 2011 EAFS award for ‘Best Government Project’ during an award ceremony at Kiosk London. The winning project provides a 24/7 payment facility for water consumers in the Turkish capital, Ankara. The Askimatik kiosk was developed by Kiosk Innova for the Ankara Sewage Administration (ASKI). Before the self-service solution was deployed, every homeowner in Ankara had to travel to water utility company service centres to top-up their account.

Reducing environmental damage and operating costs

With self-service solutions becoming a key feature of everyday life and as research suggests their usage to be increasing it comes as no surprise that we are seeing a wider range, size and variety of kiosk designs. In particular, with the emergence of more compact, sophisticated and challenging designs the need for flexible kiosk printing solutions is heightened, particularly given that the printer is often one of the last components to be installed in a kiosk.

Reap More Than You Sow

Calculating return on investment

As in any other business, there is one main objective behind any decision for or against a self-service investment: when am I going to get my money back! And calculating the return on investment shouldn’t be all that complicated. However, in our industry, things are a little difficult. Copying successful projects is not that easy since applications or situations differ.
