Endsleigh Insurance Selects Group 1 to Deliver Personalized Client Correspondence
Lanham, MD — Group 1 Software (Nasdaq: GSOF) announced today that Endsleigh Insurance of the United Kingdom has implemented DOC1, its customer relationship communication solution, to deliver highly personalized client literature to over 300,000 customers. DOC1 is the fastest way to produce personalized business documents for both print and on-line delivery.
DOC1's development environment provides the driving force for the rapid delivery of a variety of documents, including renewal invitations, letters, statements, purchase orders and invoices. DOC1 simplifies the management of handling variable input and delivering highly formatted presentation quality output.
"Our initial task was to conduct an in-depth evaluation of the various document generation systems available in the marketplace," said Nigel Taylor, project leader at Endsleigh. "DOC1 was a clear winner due to its ability to handle our complex formatting requirements, ease of integration with our existing AS/400 infrastructure and its comprehensive functionality. Use of DOC1 has enabled us to reduce print times and costs while delivering far superior presentation quality to the client. DOC1 has provided us with increased operational efficiency, greater user control and significantly improved client communication."
"Endsleigh has taken full advantage of DOC1 functionality to deliver real business benefits of improved customer service and operational efficiency," said Laurence O'Hagan, CTO of Group 1 Software's DOC1 division. "Further gains will be made as Endsleigh continues to roll out DOC1 across the organization."

Group 1 supports MVS, VSE, AS/400, UNIX (including Linux), Windows NT, Windows 2000 and other operating systems and various computers. Group 1 has offices throughout the United States and in Canada, the United Kingdom, and continental Europe; the Miami office serves the Latin American market.
