BPC Banking Technologies

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non notable software company. The few references this article has do not establish notability, and the text is a mess of blatant advertising speak: "BPC Banking Technologies is a provider of Open System e-payment solutions for the global financial industry. As the developer and distributor of SmartVista—a comprehensive suite of solutions covering every aspect of electronic payments processing — BPC has designed an innovative platform featuring a flexible, scalable, high performance solution."

 * Delete - Per WP:ORG, "Wikipedia bases its decision about whether an organization is notable enough to justify a separate article on the verifiable evidence that the organization or product has attracted the notice of reliable sources unrelated to the organization or product." Of particular importance is WP:CORPDEPTH. I see no convincing evidence of such here or in my own search. Although BPC Banking Technologies has some incidental coverage in the blogsphere, I see no coverage in more reliable sources and universally no coverage of significant substance. I do not think WP:CORPDEPTH has been met. -- Sailing to Byzantium  ( msg ),  02:25, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete I'm not sure we can expect to find sources meeting the GNG for companies serving other businesses, rather than consumers directly--its  a reflection of both the nature of the subject and the available indexing.  In this case, however, this article, which is essentially an advertisement, doesn't seem to indicate reasonable notability .  DGG ( talk ) 23:10, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
