CrawfordTech announces Zumbox partnership

Crawford Technologies have formed a partnership with Zumbox which allows the latter to provide digital postal mail services for the company. The deal will see Zumbox enable digital delivery as an integrated alternative output channel for CrawfordTech’s customers.

CrawfordTech is a print-stream transformation and document re-engineering software solutions provider.

The CrawfordTech Zumbox enablers will make it fast and simple for print service providers and large mailers to take advantage of digital delivery via Zumbox due to the enablers’ ability to support Xerox Metacode/LCDS, AFP, Postscript, PDF, PDF/A, PCL and Line data print streams.

By offering digital postal mail output, mailers can benefit from enhanced paper suppression programmes that deliver cost savings of as much as 75% compared to production and delivery of paper mail. Print service providers gain a competitive advantage by adding digital postal mail to their portfolio of paper suppression solutions and benefit from a shift of relatively low gross margin print and mail solutions to much higher gross margin data services, the company said.

“Making it easy for our customers to implement digital postal mail as an alternative output stream is an exciting enhancement to our overall solutions,” said Ernie Crawford, president of Crawford Technologies. “Digital postal mail enables large cost savings, a “green programme” and improved customer communications for mailers and an important new product offering for print service providers that use our solutions.”
