BEYOND VIRTUAL: THE WIDE RANGE OF IN-PERSON PROCESSES OFFERED BY EVOTING

Written by EVoting Communications / 03 de Diciembre del 2024

In its commitment to delivering a more robust and comprehensive experience, EVoting has increasingly blended digital tools with in-person services—and in many cases, has managed processes that are entirely physical, without any remote component.

Over the years, EVoting has evolved its service offering by integrating a wide array of in-person solutions designed to complement and enrich the client experience. This approach not only reinforces the company’s dedication to excellence, but also ensures more complete, tailored solutions that meet the specific demands of each process.

One example of this integration is accreditation, a service that verifies a participant’s attendance at an event, confirming their identity and eligibility to enter the process. Accreditation can be used in in-person, hybrid, or remote settings.

Efficiency is key to this service, and EVoting employs various authentication and identity validation methods to ensure accurate and secure accreditation. These include ID verification, QR codes, and barcodes, enabling fast and effective processes.

Among the key benefits of in-person accreditation is the real-time calculation of quorum, along with the certainty that each participant is who they claim to be. Notably, identity verification can be carried out independently of whether the person takes part in a specific activity—meaning the service can be used without necessarily involving a vote or assembly.

Another way EVoting enhances the client experience is by digitalizing the voting process, even when conducted on-site. This hybrid approach brings numerous advantages over traditional paper-based methods.

One of the biggest benefits is the speed of vote counting. With results available almost immediately after the vote closes, it eliminates the delays associated with manual counting. Additionally, streamlined voter flow allows more people to vote in less time and with less physical space required—greatly improving logistics. The system also increases accessibility, making it easier for individuals with different needs to participate.

A standout example of this was the election of the Board of Directors and Oversight Committee for the Cooperativa Agrícola Pisquera Elqui Limitada (CAPEL) in Chile, where a fully in-person voting process achieved an impressive 99% participation rate.

Other successful cases, such as CAPEL in Chile and the Argentine Rural Society (SRA), showcase the diverse range of services that EVoting provides—offering more robust, efficient, and transparent processes to clients.
