The “First Mile” is a trademark of Kofax; it is intended to describe the initial information-intensive interactions customers have with an organization, such as loan applications, claims submissions, and new account openings. The company claims to make these initial interactions better for customers by providing software and technology applications – document capture, process management, dynamic case management, mobile applications and analytics software – to connect an organization's system of record (e.g., ERP, CRM and LOB systems) with its systems of engagement (e.g., email, fax, web portals, mobile devices).
