Notarius is proud to announce that its trusted digital signature solution, CertifiO, has been selected by the OAA.
“We are honored to welcome OAA as the newest association to select us for their digital transformation” says Claude Charpentier, CEO at Notarius. “Notarius provides our partners with a way to ensure the reliability of electronic documents while improving efficiency. Our partnership clearly demonstrates that OAA is a forward-thinking association making a conscious effort to remain current with industry trends.”
“For almost three years, the OAA Practice Committee has been examining safe and secure options for digital architectural seals to reduce the risk of fraud, prevent illegal practice and enhance protection of the public. One of the first proposals was to explore working with Notarius. Since then, we have looked at alternative products, watched the adoption of the company’s seal progress across Canada and came to the conclusion they would make a fine partner in this initiative,” states John K. Stephenson, President of OAA.
