Xplor International Recognizes 2013 Award Winners
LUTZ, FL—April 16, 2013—Xplor International, the worldwide electronic document systems association, has named the recipients of its annual 2013 awards. The two annual Xplor Awards recognize the Application of the Year and Technology of the Year and were presented at a ceremony and luncheon today, Wednesday, April 17, 2013, at the TradeWinds Island Grand Hotel and Conference Center, in Tampa Bay, FL.
Application of the Year Award is presented to an individual, company or organization to recognize outstanding achievement in the imaginative application of current technology and/or unique implementation of existing document and communication systems. This award is open to members and non-members.
A statistical tie in scoring, as determined by the Xplor Awards Committee, prompted the declaration of two winners: Metlife Iberia/GMC Software and Apex Information Technologies.
MetLife Iberia/GMC Software for their integration and rebranding of Alico’s customer communications (a company purchased by MetLife Iberia) to reflect MetLife’s corporate identity and customer-centric approach.
The tasks included the successful integration, standardization, and migration of data and addition of multiple distribution channels to name a few. The implementation resulted in full rebranding of all customer communications, significant cost reduction, faster turnaround and the implementation of a system that can easily accommodate quick and cost effective changes.
Apex Information Technologies for their implementation across a broad range of healthcare organizations. A system that unites payment services from various facilitators through one seamless interface to limit the number of payment portals and simplify billing for both healthcare facilities and patients.
One of the installations reduced incoming correspondence by 40 percent after carefully redesigning their statements to emphasize their brand, increase clarity, and highlight online bill payment options. This medical group also saw a 93 percent decrease in multiple-page mailings, thereby reducing costs for paper and printing.
