The ATM & Cash Logistics Optimizer forecasts cash demand for each ATM, branch vault and teller cash recycler from its own history, calendar and local events. It recommends replenishment orders that weigh the cost of idle cash against delivery costs and the risk of running out, within your holding limits and carrier schedules. Your cash operations team reviews and approves every order, and deliveries and discrepancies are tracked through to reconciliation.

What it is for

Many banks and credit unions set ATM and branch cash orders from fixed par levels, spreadsheets and the judgment of branch staff. Machines and vaults hold more cash than they need to avoid running out, and that cash earns nothing while it sits there. Orders are placed by phone or email, carrier charges are hard to check against what was ordered, and discrepancies between ordered, delivered and counted cash are tracked by hand. Few teams can say how much idle cash they carry or what each delivery costs.

  • Par levels are set once and rarely revisited, so cash builds up in machines and vaults
  • Holidays, paydays and local events are handled from memory
  • Orders, carrier charges and deliveries are reconciled by hand
  • There is no clear view of idle cash or the cost of each delivery

Who uses it

  • Cash operations and branch operations teams at banks and credit unions
  • Branch managers responsible for vault and teller cash
  • Treasury and finance teams who answer for the cost of non-earning assets

  • Internal audit and security officers, who need evidence of cash controls
