Faster, More Accurate Documentation of Buy Money
Infiltration of drug trafficking organizations often requires agents to purchase drugs or pay informants with cash provided by the Pennsylvania Attorney General Bureau of Narcotics Investigation. The responsibility for counting the currency, capturing an image of every serial number and recording the text value of those serial numbers falls on agents as well. Agency personnel face a tedious, multi-step process to inventory cash used in these activities, as well as money collected in seizures - tying up hours of their valuable time.
The Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General rolled out nine JetScan iFX currency scanners by Cummins Allison to support the Bureau of Narcotics Investigation offices throughout the state. Not only did the new equipment meet the IT department’s list of requirements, it also brought speed and accuracy to their operations. At 1,200 bills per minute the machines identify the denomination of each note, record the serial number and identify counterfeit bills. The agents quickly realized the time savings associated with the JetScan iFX.
