American Recovery Association helps members increase recovery rates with new technology

World’s Largest Recovery Association Helps Lowers Price of Entry for License Plate Recognition Technology for Members

Dallas, Texas – July 29, 2009, American Recovery Association (ARA), and Digital Recognition Network (DRN), the leader in license plate recognition (LPR) technology, have partnered to offer ARA members LPR technology at an extremely discounted rate. Members can obtain the LPR technology through three unique programs. The partnership has also created additional benefits and value for members who have already taken advantage of the LPR technology offered by Digital Recognition Network.

ARA has worked with Digital Recognition Network to create three unique program levels allowing members to immediately obtain and use LPR technology, regardless of their budget. With this tiered approach, ARA has lowered the barrier to entry, created new revenue opportunities for its members, and increased recovery rates for clients.

“ARA’s goal is to have DRN’s LPR Camera Kits operated by our members in all fifty states by the end of the year,” said Art Blanchette, President of ARA. “In doing so, we will not only bring meaning and value to our recent joint-marketing announcement with Digital Recognition Network, but deliver greater results to our clients and more revenue opportunities for our members.”

ARA’s agreement with Digital Recognition Network will increase recovery rates and efficiencies – allowing ARA members to better serve the lending community.

To date, Digital Recognition Network’s nationwide network of more than 500 LPR cameras has found more than 37,000 wanted vehicles worth more than $350 million dollars. With camera coverage expanding rapidly, recoveries are expected to dramatically increase throughout 2009.

Recently, Digital Recognition Network and Recovery Management, Inc. (RMI) partnered to create a national network of LPR-equipped recovery vehicles looking for and recovering lenders’ vehicles 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The RMI Quick Response Team® and The RMI Quick Recovery Program® will help you leverage your new DRN LPR Camera Kit to increase revenue for your business.
