closely meets our needs and budgets at any time,” says Piotr Rogut, Business Development Director at Emerson. Servex, one of Spain’s leading out- sourcing companies, has deployed the InfoPrint Mailroom Integrity ADF Solution to streamline the printing of important bills and statements for European banks and financial institu- tions. The company prints more than seven million statements and bills each month and by implementing InfoPrint Solutions’ ADF offering, it has been able to significantly scale down the cost of printing, while offering high- integrity services to its customers. “InfoPrint Solutions has been a truly innovative solutions partner as our company strives to offer our custom- ers the most advanced and bullet-proof outsourcing options,” says Mr. Guar- diola, General Manager of Manage- ment of Servex. Merrill

global provider of technology enabled solutions for the financial, healthcare, real estate, legal and other corporate markets, has chosen its IPPD driven ADF solution as its strategic workflow technology platform.
