Additional Notes
ATF has determined that BankScan possesses unique features not available in any other product, including specific templates relevant only to ATF. Market research, including internet searches for resellers, did not identify any authorized resellers. Other comparable software products were evaluated but lacked the same capabilities or were significantly more expensive. Discontinuing this license would significantly hamper complex case analysis.
