FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
KorTerra Software Version 3.7.0 Released
Minneapolis, MN – November 30th, 2004 – KorTerra announced today, the official release of their newest KorTerra™ software product suite version. This version’s release contains more than 225 new, updated, and modified software items.
This software release contains changes to seven of the different KorTerra software modules (Dispatch, Mobile, Payroll, Billing, Positive Response, Internet Ticket Query, Claims Management) plus updates to several One Call Center interfaces. Two of the major developments contained in this version include the introduction of the new KorTerra Mobile and significant Claims Management functionality enhancements.
Version 3.7.0 is the official release of the New KorTerra Mobile. KorTerra Mobile is the result of intense research and polling of KorTerra’s customers and their mobile solution needs. KorTerra has also performed extensive research on mobile solutions in the utility industry and trends in mobile technology. The KorTerra Product Team has taken the information collected and developed a new Mobile software solution to best meet their client’s requirements.

Claims Management underwent a transformation from a simple utility damage tracking software tool to a comprehensive information management system for multiple claim types. KorTerra Claims Management has been broadened to capture any type of claim that a locating organization may have. From utility damages, to motor vehicle accidents, to property loss, to worker’s compensation, the Claims Management System collects all of the specific information for each type of claim in one easy to use system.
Version 3.7.0 also reflects modifications and improvements to 14 different One Call Center interfaces. KorTerra is proud of the relationships that are maintained with the One Call Centers across the nation. A testament to these relationships is the ability to stay abreast of changes in One Call processes and formats.
- Version 3.7.0 also includes enhancements and modifications such as:
- Report emailing and scheduling updates
- Summary Payroll Information displays
- Email back to contractor added for Positive Response
- Billing maintenance, reporting, and security enhancements
“We are pleased to share that several of the Version 3.7.0 enhancements came directly from User Conference suggestions,” said Product Manager, Jeff Law, “This demonstrates KorTerra is truly a customer driven software tool that is completely devoted to the One Call and Damage Prevention industry. We are excited to complete the planning process for our next release using the suggestions gathered at our User Conference this past August.”
