 Parascript Receives Prestigious STAR Supplier Award from Lockheed Martin
Boulder, Colo., June 15, 2010 – Parascript, LLC, the image analysis and pattern recognition technology provider, was awarded the prestigious STAR Supplier Award by Lockheed Martin for its performance and contribution to the success of the United States Postal Service (USPS) Remote Computer Reader (RCR) system. The award recognizes Parascript’s achievements in working with Lockheed Martin in meeting some of the most stringent performance criteria in the mail processing industry.
First established in 1999, Lockheed Martin’s STAR Supplier Award is an effort to quantitatively measure supplier quality and to create a group of preferred suppliers, based on the areas of quality, affordability, delivery and management/administration.

The primary purpose of the AddressScript OCR system is to work closely with Lockheed Martin’s advanced mail processing technology to meet and exceed requirements of the USPS.
“We value Parascript’s contributions to help us continually exceed expectations for USPS,” said Rod Makoske, vice president of Lockheed Martin’s USPS programs business, “and we are happy to award it a STAR Supplier Award for consistently delivering excellent OCR technology.”
“As a company that is dedicated to providing quality software and staying at the forefront of the industry, we, at Parascript, have found a wonderful partner with Lockheed Martin,” said Alexander Filatov, president and CTO for Parascript. “We are proud to support Lockheed Martin and the USPS and respectfully accept this prestigious award.”
