ATMIA LAUNCHES NEW ATM OS MIGRATION COST MODEL FOR DEPLOYERS ATMIA has announced the release of a new migration cost model for ATM deployers to use as a tool to calculate costs of different migration strategies to new operating systems. "End-of-support of Windows XP is a critical challenge to the ATM industry," explained author Francesco Burelli, partner at Innovalue Management Advisors and winner of the association's 2014 International Consultant of the Year Award. "Given the hardware and software implications, the industry is faced with a sizable upgrade challenge both in financial and logistical terms." The model was developed in conjunction with leading banks and a team of experts drawn from ATMIA's various 2020 committees looking at the most optimal approach for the industry when support for Windows 7 OS ends a few years from now. ATMIA Members have access to the study as part of their membership benefits. Non-ATMIA members may purchase the study for $650.00 USD.
