Recognition for Innovative Ideas – Growth of a first Generation Entrepreneur
It is a proud moment for N. Subramanian and his TEAM TRS Forms & Services Pvt. Ltd. since they have been selected as “The Leaders of Tomorrow” at national level in ITES vertical by the ETNow. TRS has been selected for this award mainly for their innovative products and solutions.
TRS pioneered the concept of using OMR technology for volume data capturing. Till then OMR was synonymous for Objective type of examination and Market survey. OMR was first introduced in application processing. Then it was used in subjective exams as the first sheet of the answer booklet with barcodes acting as the dummy number. Marks tabulation sheets were designed in OMR format for capturing of marks instead of data entry. All these process were introduced by TRS way back in 1995. TRS is proud to say that such systems are being widely used in India even today. With the introduction of such new technology solutions, TRS was recognised as “The OMR People”.
His passion for R&D and Technology based solutions paid dividends. TRS came out with a path breaking solution for dummy numbering process in Indian universities and other educational institutions for their subjective examination. Brand named as FireEye process, this has created a complete change in automation of examination process. FireEye process has revolutionised the post exam process. By introducing this process not only the volume is handled with ease and accurate results are brought out faster. This has helped the student community to a larger extent and brings more credibility to the institution and the examination process as a whole. The FireEye scanner has been designed and developed by TRS and registered for patent. This process had instant recognition from few big universities and professional institutes. TRS now hopes to capture more share of the market in the current year and in two years hopes to capture more than 75 per cent of the market.
Another feather in TRS cap is the introduction of eSekure a software product considered the ultimate security for any document and could eliminate possibilities of fake documents in education, financial transactions, recruitments, registration documents and government certificates. TRS has introduced the security system branded as eSekure. This mark can make even an ordinary white paper a secured document. It is 100 per cent tamper proof. Even mobile applications are available for verification and make it easy to verify on the move. TRS has just introduced this in couple of prestigious institutions as a pilot. TRS aims to make it as a standard mark for document authenticity in India. Since this problem is universal, the same can be implemented globally and eSekure made as a global standard for document security.
TRS is on the forefront of on-line activities as well. TRS has successfully implemented online applications for many education and recruitment bodies. Online examination application has been introduced for universities. TRS has the online examination (eKsamin) software for both schools and college level as well as for bigger examinations. This package has a powerful and comprehensive Question bank software (eQbank) attached. This can help in conducting both objective and subjective examinations. This package is also available separately for schools and colleges to maintain a powerful question bank and be used for their unit or internal tests. The game changer for TRS in future is going to be the on screen marker solution named eMarquer. TRS has indigenously developed the software suitable for the Indian conditions and requirements.
No doubt N Subramanian is a successful entrepreneur and an expert in high volume data processing and data capture services.
