Business Wire
Docucorp International(R) (Nasdaq:DOCC), a leading provider of
Customer Communication Management (CCM) solutions, announced today
that Hammondsdirect, UK's leading volume conveyancing services
provider, has signed a software licensing agreement. Hammondsdirect
will use Docucorp's solution to provide dynamic correspondence to
its clients. Correspondence is an integral part of Docucorp's CCM
solutions, which streamline enterprise-wide processes and enable
companies to maximize customer touch points, while driving revenue
and enhancing efficiencies. Initially, Hammondsdirect will utilize
Docucorp's robust solution to create, personalize and deliver Home
Information Packs (HIPs). The solution will then be configured to
streamline all communications across the Hammondsdirect enterprise.
"Recent legislation requires that all UK homeowners provide HIPs to
prospective homebuyers beginning June 1, 2007. To take advantage of
this new market opportunity, we sought a technology solution that
would automate the data capture, document production and assembly
process. We aim to be a major player in the HIP market, and it was
important to find an equivalent technology partner," said Achilleas
Hatjiosif, business development director, Hammondsdirect.
"Docucorp's technology will enable us to use electronically stored
content and templates, as well as incorporate dynamic, personalized
messaging based on business rules. In addition, we'll be able to
consolidate form sets from different sources, eliminating the need
to manually assemble the HIPs." "With the new solution,
Hammondsdirect will be able to reduce delays and processing time
with automated workflow and routing. They will also have the
capability to individually brand the HIPs based on their clients'
differing requirements," said Tracey Robinson, vice president and
managing director, Docucorp EMEA. "By further automating the HIP
production using Docucorp, Hammondsdirect will be able to service a
significant portion of the HIP manufacturing requirements in the
UK. Current estimates indicate that the HIP market in the UK will
be worth in the region of GBP 2 billion." "Since we launched
Docucorp's HIP offering, which is available as either an in-house
solution or an outsourced service, we have had strong interest from
all areas of the market. This legislation seems to have galvanized
all players in the UK housing market," said Robinson. About
